Another new Joyce Manor track, probably their most sedate ever:

Oh, and the new Beach Slang has 10 new Beach Slang songs on it.

Omg it's new CHUMPED (sort of)

Need to catch up on this thread

yessss new Jeff Rosenstock!

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

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

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

the new joyce manor record is so awesome. pushes their sound in all the right ways

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

hearing nate ruess on "angel in the snow" is wild

although none of the pre-release singles have really grabbed me i've only heard great things about the new american football record aka emo revival come full circle

I like it a lot!

missing Joyce / Hotelier / Crying tonight and am v sad about it

Are you ptown? If so just saw Brian Wilson and I think we kinda missed out.

yeah, Portland. i had a previous commitment that did not involve Brian Wilson. :(

just got Thursday, Hotelier, Primitive Weapons ticket for starland ballroom in dec!!! :D :D :D

the new joyce manor record is so awesome

Yes, good stuff.

new Jeff Rosenstock is on Spotify, based purely on the opening minute it is a masterpiece

oh and it's available as a free download (with a donate option) here

can't wait to hear it

oh my god the back half of this is insane! every pop-punker who lives long enough eventually writes a prog opus lol

not sure what thread it belongs on but the Fake Limbs record also sounds p damn good so far

https://fakelimbs.bandcamp.com/album/matronly

whoa the jeff record is so ambitious and good

this is great ty

listened to Worry approx 17 times today

can't stop listening to the rosenstock

new Kevin Devine this week - solid but not quite on Bubblegum's level

v much enjoying this Mannequin Pussy album (mmm, 11 tracks in 17 minutes)

oof that name

re: Rosenstock, I'm just now hearing last year's Antarctigo Vespucci (his band with Chris Farren) and it's great.

playlist is updated, 53 cats in a bit more than three hours

new Terry Malts is great power-pop-punk

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.

he released two albums simultaneously in '14, Bubblegum and Bulldozer, both great, esp the former.

video (and possibly song) of the year

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvreUyQ8SM4

never listened to that band before but they're singlehandedly responsible for all the delightful garbage australians who attended fest this year and drank shots out of their shoes

How did I miss the Tender Defender EP that came out this year? If you miss Latterman at all, this EP is for you.

i just saw latterman so it's hard to miss them but i didn't know about that ep!

tryin' to make me jealous

I'll make it out there one year.

holy shit, the new trust fund

if you raised belle & sebastian on a diet of emo and told them to write a bunch of 2-minute songs, the results couldn't have been much lovelier

the new owel is really really good and pretty different from the last record

has anyone seen Appleseed Cast live recently? I want to see them but they're opening for Caspian (who seem like pleasantly average post-rock) and I'm not sure if it's worth only catching them in an opening slot.

i've never seen them live lol

oh here's my favorite song from the owel record
