i listen to most of those bands.

anyone know if jeremy egnick plays sunny day songs live? Id kill for song about an angel.

also clarity is an absolute masterpiece that jimmy eat world will never top.

no he doesn't, BUT his new solo album is awesome, and he is on tour with Cursive, who are awesome, so go check him out anyway

Clartiy IS their best album for sure, but all of their albums are amazing in their own way.

no matter how hard he tries he will always be the singer from sunny day. hell never get big with that style of music so his only fans will almost certainly be sunny day fans. im not saying that his solo stuff isnt worth acclaim on its own merits but that is how it will be.

morrisey plays a few smiths songs live but his solo stuff is still intensely popular.

Morrisey and the smiths are wholly different though. Sunny Day Real Estate was mildly popular, and the Smiths were HUGE. If morrisey didnt do a few smiths songs, he would get strung up by his nads.

Jeremy Egnik might have the advantage of being new to some people. Someone might not have ever heard SDRE and like Jeremy Egnik's solo records

It's generic because many of these bands sound the same.

I'll grant that Clarity is a solid album and Cap'n Jazz isn't bad. I also don't see how The Get Up Kids fit into this sound really but beyond that, I have albums by most of these bands and I can't distinguish between them tbh.

Beh, I like GUK though because they are much more musically rich. And tbh they play much more aggressive music than all the other bands listed except maybe Cap'n Jazz and later JEW so meh.

I mean, it's all just: set metronome to 80bpm, strum acoustic guitar, find talentless singer who sounds "emotional" but really can't hold a tune to save his life, and record in a cheap studio so there's a little distortion for atmosphere. bleh.

edit: atdi is post-punk, no? i definitely don't see them as part of this scene.

To be honest, I probably haven't given it a fair chance. I listened to it a couple times, a long time ago, and don't remember it standing out much.

But, since my tastes have expanded so much during the time since I last listened to it, I'm going to give it another chance after my current album is over.

If you like the other bands from this scene, you might like Static Prevails more. It's a lot more reminiscent of the bands from this scene than Clarity and is just as good as Clarity.

I think certain songs of Static like "Digits" (which had the guy from Christie Front Drive singing) and "Anderson Mesa" have a kind of early SDRE feel. Clarity always seemed like a straightforward indie-rock album to me.

lets talk about some good bands in here. Cobert's thread inspired me. I didn't know people in here liked braid.

So let's discuss some kick *** bands.

This scene is probably my favorite in all of music.

Sunny Day Real Estate
Jawbreaker
Braid
Texas is the Reason
The Promise Ring
Cap'n Jazz
Christie Front Drive
Jimmy Eat World
Mineral
The Get Up Kids

etc.

These are pretty much my favorite bands, and if not then they released some of my favorite albums.

Discuss

You forgot Rockets & Bluelights Close at Hand, the best band of the genre. Granted, they were post-90's, but the 90's was just when the genre was big. It's faded away for the most part, but most emo has anyway.

Oh and you got the genre name wrong. Good job leaving out the part it's most known as.

It is, they have two Eps also.

IRC I think the EPs are kind of bad, maybe that's a different band..

Or wait nevermind American Football's EP is kind of bad.

I always liked the song Five Silent Miles from the EP, even though it's Instrumental.

11-22-2006, 04:58 PM

Yeah it's alright. The other two are a bit meh though.

Tim and Mike are awesome.

I mean, Cap'n Jazz, American Football, Joan of Arc, Owen all from the same dudes (I know not both of them in the others but eh).

I'm going to name my imaginary child I have Kinsella.

I was listening to Clarity today, it truly is Jimmy Eat World's best. Then for me, it's Futures and then Bleed American.
