is this the thread where we talk about Tigers Jaw's "Charmer"? because I am liking Tigers Jaw's "Charmer" quite a bit.

charmer is really nice!

also really enjoying the new record by wolves & machines which is on the alt rockier side of emo

here you can stream the new driver friendly record http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKAm0swRNckvuGdGkLQJDbyd2zjw-q2fg

every recommendation in this thread should come with a Singy/Shouty Gauge ... like:

"digging the new Burrowing Deep Into A Blanket Of Stars album ... 70/30 Singy/Shouty ... stream it here: LINK"

i like guitars and emo/pop-punk/bullshit, and i don't mind shouty but i prefer singy ... or at least some singy mixed in with the shouty. knowing right where a record falls on that spectrum would be sweet.

alpine static, Wednesday, 9 July 2014 01:58 (nine years ago) link

oh yeah that's probably a good idea

driver friendly is like 100/0 singy/shouty. it is definitely not as good as bury a dream though

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Wednesday, 9 July 2014 07:13 (nine years ago) link

Yeah it's not quite as striking as Bury a Dream, but their records always sound so good. Every tone on this album is so crisp and alert; I wish more albums were produced like this

Evan R, Wednesday, 9 July 2014 14:25 (nine years ago) link

i'm really coming around to the driver friendly now actually. way more upbeat than bury a dream but i think "undone" is one of their best songs. also yeah best guitar tones in the game

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 14 July 2014 19:44 (nine years ago) link

and now i can't stop listening to it. it's on spotify for, uh, easier listening than youtube http://open.spotify.com/album/40PYpebL41PqseFC7SgrgX

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 15 July 2014 14:12 (nine years ago) link

and so far the new dikembe is very good http://pitchfork.com/advance/496-mediumship/

100/0 singy/shouty although i don't think they can really sing

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 15 July 2014 17:37 (nine years ago) link

Do people on thread know Basement? Never heard of them but apparently an English band that went on hiatus in 2012 and just reunited. Not really a band name amenable to ILX search. Maybe 80/20 singy/shouty and this new song is really good:

http://noisey.vice.com/blog/basement-summers-colour-further-sky-premiere

Their previous album Colourmeinkindness is on spotify and is great, reminds me a bit of Balance and Composure with the chunky 90s alt-rock aspects.

anonanon, Friday, 18 July 2014 18:37 (nine years ago) link

into this

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 19 July 2014 19:52 (nine years ago) link

Milwaukee's Sugar Stems aren't really emo or pop-punk BUT they are very poppy and they're on Dirtnap (punky!) and there is no rolling power-pop or even indie thread (that I can find) so I have to post here that their new album has quickly become one of my favorites of 2014. the hooks on this thing are out of control:

http://www.avclub.com/article/hear-sugar-stems-starry-eyed-new-power-pop-album-o-206908

i think it sounds like The Muffs if Kim hadn't ever discovered punk rock.

if there is a better thread for this, lemme know, otherwise i figure you melody-friendly lot might like it.

alpine static, Wednesday, 23 July 2014 06:08 (nine years ago) link

two weeks pass...

i've heard the new dads record and it fucking rules

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Thursday, 7 August 2014 02:50 (nine years ago) link

very very impressive lyrically which probably accounts for how much i've already listened to it

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Thursday, 7 August 2014 02:51 (nine years ago) link

can't stop listening to the new braid

Mordy, Thursday, 7 August 2014 04:27 (nine years ago) link

finally heard the first driver friendly album chase the white whale this morning and it's fucking AWESOME

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 August 2014 15:19 (nine years ago) link

fuck it, making a driver friendly thread that no one replies to

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 August 2014 20:58 (nine years ago) link

Strictly EZ Snappin' Nhex (Spottie), Friday, 8 August 2014 21:17 (nine years ago) link

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 August 2014 21:20 (nine years ago) link

Strictly EZ Snappin' Nhex (Spottie), Friday, 8 August 2014 21:32 (nine years ago) link

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 August 2014 21:33 (nine years ago) link

The show was so good. Paramore we're better I think.

what do we feel about Alex G - DSU?

Mordy, Tuesday, 26 August 2014 22:31 (nine years ago) link

^^ I liked it the couple times I listened. Sounds like he's got potential but isn't quite there yet.

alpine static, Tuesday, 26 August 2014 22:55 (nine years ago) link

have i mentioned how much i love this new braid album? addicting

Mordy, Thursday, 28 August 2014 02:04 (nine years ago) link

1. i search for this thread via "emo pizza"

2. should i buy mineral tickets on stubhub?

adam, Friday, 29 August 2014 02:25 (nine years ago) link

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 29 August 2014 17:08 (nine years ago) link

Just discovered this Joyce Manor album and enjoying it a ton. It's notably succinct, 10 bursts of hi quality emoish pop punk in about 19 minutes.

http://assets.noisey.com/content-images/contentimage/31422/joyce-manor-cover.jpg

Here's the great opening track, "Christmas Card":

http://youtu.be/fenyfqlHfbQ

anonanon, Friday, 5 September 2014 03:10 (nine years ago) link

yeah basically i've been playing nothing but Joyce Manor and The Hotelier for several days

alpine static, Friday, 5 September 2014 03:12 (nine years ago) link

love the JM album, almost as good as their self-titled

Simon H., Friday, 5 September 2014 03:14 (nine years ago) link

that joyce manor record ROCKS

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 September 2014 03:16 (nine years ago) link

they do more with 19 minutes than the vast majority of bands do with 40, it's awesome

alpine static, Friday, 5 September 2014 03:24 (nine years ago) link

esp love "Victoria" and "Cataline Fight Song," more bands need to be doing great things in 100 seconds or less

Simon H., Friday, 5 September 2014 03:25 (nine years ago) link

haha since the Joyce Manor was news to no one but me, is everyone also enjoying the new RVIVR track as much as I am? been playing it on a loop, from a new EP coming in about two weeks:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHsotk9ELPY

anonanon, Friday, 5 September 2014 03:33 (nine years ago) link

Nice track. Great vox in particular.

Simon H., Friday, 5 September 2014 03:35 (nine years ago) link

god rvivr keep getting better

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 September 2014 03:44 (nine years ago) link

oh shit rvivr

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 8 September 2014 20:32 (nine years ago) link

two weeks pass...

so the new RVIVR ep is here and goddamn is it good

https://rvivr.bandcamp.com/album/bicker-and-breathe-ep

I like how the first track seems to end in a natural place and you're thinking ok that was a really good song but then it's like syke we're not done here and whacks you in the side of the head with a massive group singalong coda

anonanon, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 06:30 (nine years ago) link

fuuuck yes
