TWIABP and Bunny's Caravan might have the happy side of the twinkle thing perfected but goddamnit if I've ever heard a band better at being sad. Fucking love this album.

"...Bunny's Caravan might have the happy side of the twinkle thing perfected..."

Give a shot at listening to ABC's lyrics.

I have; doesn't change the fact that their music is generally cheery sounding though.

Wrong. They're so quirky it's like happiness and sadness join in synergy.

Srsly tho, This, Draining Puddles, American Football's s/t and TWIABPAIANLATD are like the best twinkle releases ever. I wish there was more twinkle this good. Especially sad twinkle.

czech:

owen - at home with owen
youth pictures of florence henderson - unnoticable in a tiny town, invisible in the city
purplene - purplene (more just slowcore but still)
and empire!'s EPs if you haven't heard them

~sad twinkly canon~

Bunny's caravan is so twinkly. Lol but their music has some sweet ass climaxes.

Sheeit I've been sleeping on that Bunny's Caravan album, if it's up there with American Football/Empire Empire/TWIABP, then I don't know why the hell I haven't checked it yet

FYI, twinkly sounds even more gay than emo. Just saying, you're not helping the genre lose its stigma.

Yeah much of twinkly emo can be pretty boring, but when it's good it's really damn good
