some emo tunes(nd other stuff geez u guys)my friend rec'd me
i listen to a lot of metal but my friend (suppatime) sent me a playlist of emo sh*t(and some other stuff too) to check out that he thought i'd like so i gave it a spin and here are my thoughts :-) |
| 1 |  | Glassjaw
Our Color Green (The Singles)
short and sweet, good balance of heavy and not heavy (the chugs are nicee), cleans are kinda whiny but catchy? whatever 3/5 |
| 2 |  | Loma Prieta
I.V.
heavy as f*ck and then a lil melodic but then frantic again with some slow chugging riffs thrown in. second half of the album definitely the better part so 3.5/5 |
| 3 |  | Drug Church
CHEER
its catchy and bouncy and sounds like radio rock soo 3.3/5 |
| 4 |  | Majority Rule
Interview With David Frost
yo this came out in 2001? sounds way ahead of its time. the dudes higher screams are sick, but it gets a lil samey. 3.75/5 |
| 5 |  | Rinoa
An Age Among Them
hella melodic, hella chill. like post-black metal (ish) that is also emo? drolls on a bit sometimes but idc, 4/5 |
| 6 |  | Pianos Become the Teeth
The Lack Long After
gawd these vox are emo as f*k. the drumming stood out, i liked that. not much else to say besides it being sadboi af. rip that dudes dad, 3.3/5 |
| 7 |  | Totem Skin
Weltschmerz
its like entombed that gets a lil sad sometimes. crusty, heavy, swag. 4/5 |
| 8 |  | State Faults
Resonate/Desperate
has some good melodies, the dual screams is dope. overall tho its a lil too emo for me 8) hehe 2.9/5 |
| 9 |  | Cult of Luna
Eternal Kingdom

pretty unique sound, the electronic parts(chiptune lmao) were weird but fit in. i really like the artwork. 3.7/5 |
| 12 |  | Faraquet
The View From This Tower
short n sweet. ending kinda dragged a lil with the instrumental math rock nerdiness but hey, gotta show sum love to the hometown homeboys. 3.2/5 |

Riot For Romance!

| 15 |  | Modest Mouse
The Lonesome Crowded West
never really listened to these guys besides hearing whatever was on the radio (float on? lol) this album was long af and kinda hard to sit thru at times but like the first 4-5 songs or whatever are sick. his lisp is so cute :-) he shud scream more :-) 3.6/5 |
| 16 |  | Have a Nice Life
Deathconsciousness
alright so ngl after readin up on the themes n whatever this albums like pseudo-pretentious but not bad, just sooo longgg. the first half is atmospheric/soundtrack-y which was neat since i was listening to it on the bus lookin out tha window all music video/sadboi-esque lmao deep, deep is a BOP tho 3.6/5 |
| 17 |  | Unwound

| 22 |  | Hail Spirit Noir
Mayhem In Blue
its like Vreid if they maybe tried a little harder and experimented more. its like what black metal would sound like in victorian england (idk cuz like lost in satans charms, a confirmed bop btw, reminds me of the rlly good sherlock holmes movies robert downey jr is in) 4/5 |
