There's a new Joyce Manor song. Some of the lyrics are a little out there but they still sound so fucking good.

Need to catch up on this thread

tangenttangent, Thursday, 22 September 2016 10:43 (seven years ago) link

yessss new Jeff Rosenstock!

https://jeffrosenstock.bandcamp.com/album/worry

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Friday, 30 September 2016 08:54 (seven years ago) link

If you took the 5 or 6 best songs from this year's and last year's Dear Hunter albums you'd have a fine proggy pop-emo album, alas restraint and concision are categorically not This Guy's Thing. Anyway, the new one has a better hit:miss ratio than last year's due to having fewer corny vaudevillian story-advancing numbers

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Sunday, 2 October 2016 02:16 (seven years ago) link

new Kevin Devine sounds on par with Bubblegum, which is a v good thing

a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Tuesday, 4 October 2016 06:36 (seven years ago) link

I was just about to say something about that but I didn't want to have four posts in a row lol, I wish it were twice as long but I appreciate the care obviously taken to cram in as many awesome little harmonic details as possible

new Terry Malts is great power-pop-punk

na (NA), Monday, 24 October 2016 21:54 (seven years ago) link

Terry Malts rules so hard.

I'd not heard Kevin Devine before this new one, but it's great.

Thanks for the Rosenstock d/l link up there. We Cool? ended up in my Top 10 of '16. Excited to hear the new one.

OK, this has been my Rolling Emo Thread roundup.
