"just websites like p4k misappropriated the word/genre ugh"
I disagree that it's only websites like pitchfork that are doing it. Evan Weiss of Into It. Over It. talks about the "resurgence of emo" all the time. It's just a very popular thing to talk about right now since emo is getting more attention than the past few years. But of course the scene never stopped being there.

Time to give this another chance, especially now that I've got a good quality version and not the shitty 144p download I've been listening to

The emo reclamation thing's retarded because the scene never stopped being there, just websites like p4k misappropriated the word/genre ugh
Sure, but the underground definitely whittled down quite a bit during/after that all that "emo popularisation" shit (skramz not included; screamo's been pretty steady in popularity). No genre ever really dies: the scene's always there. It's only been since 2009, however (52 Weeks, What It Takes to Move Forward, Seasons in Verse and Fuck Your Emotional Bullshit), that emo bands have really started springing up in the numbers that they have, and if you look back in 2006-2008 and prior you have very few notable names (Street Smart Cyclist, Kidcrash, Moving Mountains, Tigers Jaw, Algernon Cadwaller) and even they were far from the popularity that emo's enjoying nowadays. Journalism coverage definitely did misappropriate the term with that whole mainstream thing but Evan Weiss talking about the "resurgence of emo" is justified: he was playing in emo and screamo bands as far back as 2001 (in Chicago, no less) so being right there in the middle of the scene, watching it all in motion's gotta give him some credibility.

58 ratings is not bad for an emo album, on this website. I'm new of course, but that's just my opinion from what I've so far observed. Need a couple more listens before I can rate, but I'm around a 3.5

Their last one has 184 ratings over a year and a half so yeah 50 something in a couple weeks is pretty good

This is really underwhelming so far. It just sounds like a cleaned up Grow Up, Dude in the worst way
possible. Not horrible though. I like House Address especially towards the end.

Other than House Address and the closing track the albums pretty consistently average.
Meh. First disappointment of the year, only a minor one.

I'm guessing it was Strong Island cause Regional Dialect sucks

Yeah those are definitely the best. Strong Island is pretty decent too.

This album definitely suffers from a lack of diversity. I think it's a fun album to listen to but it gets more and more underwhelming with each listen.
