I almost think we should have a dedicated thread for them cause I'm about to dig into their three EPs, two of which apparently extend the "story" (lol) of this album

^^^ welcome to the rolling emo thread
i made an album thread for cope a few years ago that got no traction whatsoever but i feel like doing it again for a black mile to the surface
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 28 July 2017 13:34 (six years ago) link
yeah Spottie the Creeper album rules. as it turns out the EPs are also great and kinda make up a sweet album of their own
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Friday, 28 July 2017 13:49 (six years ago) link
that manch orch album opener is really great. listened to the whole thing a couple times today. really nice album, seems a little more reserved than past work? Guess i didnt really dive into Cope much but Mean Everything to Nothing def had a little more bombast
― Spottie, Friday, 28 July 2017 19:25 (six years ago) link
The Maze will be a show stopper live ,for sure. When those background singers come in...
― Spottie, Friday, 28 July 2017 19:27 (six years ago) link
having discovered Emmylou Harris Wrecking Ball and this within a couple days of each other all i can do is fight internally about which album opener is better.
― Spottie, Friday, 28 July 2017 19:28 (six years ago) link
About halfway through this Creeper record and getting really heavy Sing the Sorrow era AFI vibes. Loving it.
Misery is like the most emo song ever"
Pretty, but he don't tell you about itWinter scarves and skirts of velvetStill drink just like we did in schoolI passed your old house down by the cemeteryClub nights and universityWhen your friends sing 'Born to Run', baby, resistCause we were 'Born to Drift'If you could see the wreck I am these daysYou'd have new reasons to stay awayJust hold my hand for a little whileMisery never goes out of style

The People Like You record is recommended for those who like their indie-emo on the jazzy/mathy side

i mean this record is only faintly emo (mostly it's a real chunky, oceanic rock record) but i love rainer maria and i think this is one of the best things they've ever released
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 11 August 2017 17:38 (six years ago) link
love the rainer maria record. also having seen them twice in the last couple years i think they are as good/better as they've ever been live
― adam, Wednesday, 23 August 2017 14:26 (six years ago) link
yeah they freakin' rock live

emo & balearic??? my 2 favorite genres!
― Mordy, Friday, 25 August 2017 17:39 (six years ago) link
sorta hoping they straight up migrate to jazz rock next album. "curiosity" comes close
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Friday, 25 August 2017 17:43 (six years ago) link
Brand New is now RateYourMusic's #1 album of 2017. Not that it means anything, but it was a nice suprise after seeing Kendrick up there for most of the year.

is there a rolling thread where i should talk about the partner album? it's brilliant. it's not emo but i think y'all will love it

also emo-adjacent: the Phoebe Bridgers album is out today. There's a late-Kozelek cover that actually works.

Which song is the Prozzak joke on?
"Daytime TV" is basically me at 11-years-old when I faked sick so much they thought I had hypoglycemia.
― jmm, Friday, 22 September 2017 17:43 (six years ago) link
"Play the Field" is an amazing song.
