rolling emo/pop-punk/cats 2016

thanks singles jukebox for this awesome jarkartan anniversary/paramore approximation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0ccwR411TU

actually when the dude's voice comes in it starts to sound a lot like the forecast

yeah, i liked that a lot!

i know this goes without saying but Joyce Manor is the besssssst baaaaaand

I just listened to the Rosenstock for the first time today and I'm bit blown away. I'm looking forward to digging into it.

yeah he totally rules. especially if you're old like me.

we cool? is basically perfect. haven't made it all the way thru Worry yet

Listening to the end really pays off. It closes with a fantastic medley of short songs.

I can already see myself memorizing all of the lyrics on this.

I edited the medley into one track and use it for exercise and general uplift, it is the greatest inspiration ever

man the into it. over it record that came out this year really, really rules

Its like a perfect intersection of prime Dashboard & Death Cab

best emo/pop-punk/related albums 2016:

jimmy eat world: integrity blues
jeff rosenstock: worry
taking back sunday: tidal wave
johnny foreigner: mono no aware
crying: beyond the fleeting gales
joyce manor: cody
owel: dear me
look mexico: uniola
pinegrove: cardinal
kevin devine: instigator
the hotelier: goodness
microwave: much love
camp cope: camp cope
american football: american football
into it. over it: standards
touché amoré: stage four

boys night out's black dogs should be somewhere in the middle of that list even though it's only an ep

i really like that trust fund album surprised u don't rate it.

i know collusion is frowned upon but let's all stan hard for the rosenstock on the year old poll

i don't think i ever heard the trust fund record

Which are the more pop-punk albums in that list? I've only heard the Rosenstock.

It's only about 25 minutes long, but it's lovely! They really upped their game this year.

Also here to echo what you're all saying about the new Into It. Over It. They nail their sentimental atmospheres in every song. None of it is filler.

25 minutes! it's practically an EP and u kno how brad feels about EPs

I do not know...but I am sensing he is not a fan? They tried to make a full-length album, but their songs were just too cute.

i love eps!

almost none of the other albums in that list are pop-punk

In addition to most of Brad's list, the releases by the following are also really worth hearing:

Katie Ellen (of Chumped)
The World is a Beautiful Place...
Martha
TTNG
Brightr
PUP

(Sorry for no album names - walking)

The Joyce Manor is quite pop-punkish in parts.

xposts Oh yeah, forgot your love of Mesarthim. Does that thing Brand New did count as an EP?

imo yeah

Martha sounds great. This is the kind of thing I'm a mood for now.

i can't believe i'm seeing thursday AND dashboard confessional within the next month like wtf is it 2001 again??? am i 17 again!?!

So jealous.

I love emo but I don't really "get" JEW. (shrugs) "It Matters" is nice.

Rosentock and Joyce Manor are prob the albums I've listened to most this year in any genre

Gonna give the Look Mexico album a try, glad someone is keeping the "ridiculous song titles" aspect alive

That Look Mexico album is wonderful!! Can't remember if I've stressed my enthusiasm for it yet or not. That's top 5 emo of the year for me and favourite find itt.

for me JEW is almost exclusively about Bleed American

Understandable, though I think the entire Static Prevails/Clarity/Bleed American/Futures run is essential.

you're all wrong, every jimmy eat world album is at least good if not great

xxxxxxxxxxxxpost

the Smith Street Band is pretty good like emo version of Royal Headache

anyway, there's something kind of cool when you hear a song and you know they just wrote the song that will close their sets for as long as they are a band

don't sleep on the BASEMENT album it is nothing you haven't heard before but it is delicious

Thanks for mentioning this band, tangent. This is a fun video.

oh my god that is adorable

i can't believe i am forced to break my lengthy hiatus to be the first to mention the mighty Doe on this thread

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k906IGbSaFk

https://specialistsubject.bandcamp.com/album/some-things-last-longer-than-you

Lol aaww that Martha video is too much!

Somehow completely missed Basement when I was mentioning albums yesterday despite having saved about five songs from it. It's really strong.

Been meaning to listen to Doe - thanks for the reminder!

guess who scored incredibly surprisingly well at the singles jukebox http://www.thesinglesjukebox.com/?p=22687

I love that song. This has been my most-played album the last two weeks.

That line “I know you wish for fireworks to light your July skies" has been hovering in my head too.

hotelier were fantastic live btw - even better than on the albums.

thursday of course was amazing.
