relistening to the last Pianos Become the Teeth record thanks to the deluxe edition - gorgeous album. completely one-note but it's a note that resonates atm. the new(?) bonus tracks are great.

Today in "stuff that may or may not qualify for this thread" I am digging the new Screaming Females, and anticipating the new Dead Sara.

finally their music feels... flexible.
I've only heard "Cardinals" but it's great, high hopes for that one

once again not reaaaalllly emo but emo-adjacent: Geoff Rickly's new band sounds great http://www.stereogum.com/1824769/no-devotion-permanent-sunlight/mp3s/

mostly pop-punk/pop-rock but also uh straight up hardcore and doom metal songs that kinda thread in seamlessly?

they're basically what i wish the Replacements sounded like. (never really could connect w/ the Mats)
― alpine static, Tuesday, 25 August 2015 21:18 (eight years ago) link
the album is wonderful and i have no idea why they sent it to me so early
― insufficiently familiar with xgau's work to comment intelligently (BradNelson), Tuesday, 25 August 2015 21:20 (eight years ago) link

There is a new Modern Baseball song, you probably know what to expect. They're touring w/ Jeff Rosenstock and others later this year which, yes.
the Wonder Years album is quite pleasing, though I'm predictably not super into the song with the Letlive guy
― the naive cockney chorus (Simon H.), Thursday, 3 September 2015 17:34 (eight years ago) link
i haaaate letlive, no idea why they're so popular in the scene
― insufficiently familiar with xgau's work to comment intelligently (BradNelson), Thursday, 3 September 2015 17:35 (eight years ago) link
lol that is soooo refreshing to hear, they are basically unlistenable imo, and I really tried!
― the naive cockney chorus (Simon H.), Thursday, 3 September 2015 17:38 (eight years ago) link
i also love a lot of shitty metalcore and screamo and they're still a real hurdle
