emo is dead
>>63336338

post clean vocal emo songs
please stop with the silly anime reaction images, I know this is an anime website but this isn't an anime board, I remember you all used to get banned for it, anyone want to tell me why y'all stopped getting banned?

either way listen to emo
goodnight yall

sleep snug, smug.
This was in the prev thread but for anyone interested, mock orange announced their new record coming up in may 20th
http://www.topshelfrecords.com/products/569144
do you know any other upcoming emo albums /emoe/?
Other than the apparent release of a new AF album.
>>63336593
as long as the posts are on topic, why should anyone bitch about the images?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbjDVlp16Mk
anons lets post scene idols. those are emo and moe.
>>63336593
there are far more annoying things in /mu/ than these threads desu, also posting reaction images can't get you banned unless you're shitposting hard.
>>63337200
you blew it!

>there are far more annoying things in /mu/ than these threads
I think the rest of /mu/ would agree that these threads are literally worse than kpop general
>>63338008
oh shit i'm sorry
>>63338021
as a guy who just visited this general for the first time ever, it seems like this place is pretty okay- they have charts and post music instead of shitposting; which is more than most of /mu/ can claim (especially the k-pop gen)
>>63337467
the new hotelier sounds like straight forward pop rock to me, they really give up on any emo influences they had in the first album.
>>63338021
>deleted
there's more people in /mu/ that avoids the emo subgenre as a whole rather than avoiding the anime pics
also looks like you've never been into a kpop general

also someone subscribed to me and liked my rosa vs ness video
>>63337200
Oh man I'm so excited for this!! They're finally on a good record label!! Well at least one that can help them get more noticed. Hope they blow up
Get ready for AOTY 2016 my lads
Fuck my house flooded, and I think the only two records I give a shit about got destroyed. Now I need to go track down new copies on discogs.

Has the general consensus become EndSerenading > The Power of Failing?
>>63339165
Man I'm sorry about that.
>>63339165
That's horrible. I'd probably end myself if my City of Caterpillar record got messed up.
>>63339200
I don't know if something's wrong with me but I've never really liked Mineral, they're boring to me.
>>63338021
I disagree and I hate most emo
>>63339240
Nothing wrong with not liking them but >>63336763
suggests the comparison I outlined. Also, where's the fucking Braid in this thread?
Post more album covers with 2D girls, pls
>>63339200
i used to like it more but i can't really decide
the february/md single is their best
>>63339267
never understood the hype around braid. i didnt even enjoy frame and canvas
>>63339329
:^)
>>63339212
>>63339202
Man, it's not even expensive records. It's two cheap 7" skramz records, but they're literally the only two I care about that aren't with me at college. Hell, I only have two 12"s I care about for that matter; and they're with me up here. Granted those are test presses but out of my 200-300 records the two I actually care about at home got destroyed. Fuck off Louisiana.

RIP my rue morgue record
>>63339165
That sucks man, are you ok?
>>63339200
Only by a slight margin imo, both releases are very consistent on their sound.
Power of falling closes up pretty good though, with Take the picture now and Parking Lot.
>>63339329
Here you go, i have like 9 of those in my folder.

Yeah, I mean it's just records; and I have bigger problems right now because school is fucking me over. But fuck now I have to track down new copies of those and neither are being sold on discogs.

>>63339388
Power of Failing is stronger in the first half, weaker in the second imo.
>THE SUN IS FALLING DOWN AGAIN THE SUN IS FALLING DOWN AGAIN THE SUN IS FALLING DOWN AGAIN THE SUN IS FALLING
>>63339352
It's kinda sacrilege but Movie Music Vol. 1 is Braid's strongest release, it's only missing Urbana's Too Dark
alternatively the live album but

>>63339488
Is this modern scene shit from Sweden? This is great. Totally /emoe/.
>>63339535
yeah, they're moving away from nintendocore more and more but still great. Top notch vocals too. Still trying to figure out how to sing like that.
>>63339488
Kinda reminds me of, uhh...Dungeon Elite, I think they were called.
>>63339329

you don't like mock orange senpai?
>>63339439
that still sucks, hope you get to find those records soon senpai and good luck at school, this semester has been a bitch to me too.
>>63339469
never thought of the power of falling as a top heavy album, but i agree that songs like silver are not a highlight of the second half.
Probably i've listened to parking lot more than any other song of the power of falling.
>>63339649

>>63339439
are you guys on spring break right now?
mine started last week. but my semester has been hell too
also whats everyones thoughts on the gloria record. has chris from mineral and bass player check it out if you havent.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YAvJX_94jM
>>63339857
Gloria Record is pretty legit
>>63339857
My spring break is next week. This semester has so thoroughly destroyed me though I'm seriously thinking about dropping out of this one and doing my final semester at home.
The Gloria Record is okay. I was never a huge Mineral fan but they're both decent bands.
I caught my roommate listening to early Jimmy Eat World the other day. I told him to check out Jejune. He better do it. Which reminds me I think my Jejune record is probably trashed too but that one was hella worn out so whatever.

how long have you been into this music, /emoe/?
i know there are some actual OG people here sometimes, but what about the regulars?
>>63340168
Shit, it's "gone" not "crawled," isn't it. I fucked up.
>>63340171
For me it's been since eleventh/twelfth grade, so... 2004/2005. I think it was listening to Cryogenics the first time that cemented it for me.
>>63340171
About a decade or so here. I got into emo when I was 12/13 on the gamefaqs punk and metal music boards because I was super fucking edgy shitlord.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VZD4KtCNsE
10 years later and this is still my fucking jam.
>>63339857
nah, i'm just getting 2 days of break next week
in the state i live, the spring break comes in late april for two weeks.
the gloria record is pretty good.
>>63340171
since 2006 i guess, when i discovered knapsack.
>>63340243
...I meant Cryonics. Fuck.
>>63340171
since my 8th grade year when my brother showed me american football , sdre, brand new
unless you count jimmy eat world cause i probably listened to the middle 1000 times in elementary school
>>63340605
Damn, that's true. I loved Death Cab and Jimmy Eat World in middle school. So I guess I got into emo 11/12 years ago for sure. Too long.
>>63339488
this is pretty incredible
>>63336763
How do I listen to the japanese albums? I'm having trouble finding them
>>63340858
Which ones can't you find? I can help out.
>>63340869
Thank you very much! I'm looking for
The Cabs - ほぞ
>>63341095
That's probably because you have the Climb the Mind album title for the band the Cabs. Which one you lookin for senpai? I can get you both or either, I just need you to tell me which one you meant to say.
>>63341165
Oh fuck haha. I was trying to remember off the top of my head.
Both if you can please. Where are you finding them?
I really appreciate the help, especially you helping a stranger.
>>63341319
I was about to just post both of them as one rar because I'm going to lay down. So here you go, I guess.
http://www99.zippyshare.com/v/yVHYfPof/file.html
If there's anything wrong with them just leave a message in the thread, and I can re-upload them later. I had to grab new copies off jps because I'm too lazy to hook up my other hard drive.
>>63336178
What's some good emo for someone that usually hates emo?
>>63341372

my spring break was last week (hence the restart of emoe; none of my high school friends were on spring break so i was sitting around)
now i'm back at school going hard since dropping science was a liberating move
>>63340171
since i first heard hawthorne heights - ohio is for lovers, and dashboard confessional - hands down, which were my jams in 5th grade.
but seriously, i first started actively exploring emo a lot when i started dating a semi-scenegirl like four years ago

Any particular reason for omitting I Hate Myself or one of SDRE's albums?
>>63346027
neither of them are particularly enjoyable to me. don't get me wrong, they're both good, i'd just rather listen to anything on that chart. i understand that they're a lot more important than some of the random bandcampcore on there for the development of emo music though

Reminder to get hype about this album
hi i just made this chart of some of my favorite screamo things cause im very bored
i guess i may as well post it
left side is noisy chaotic stuff
right is more structured posthardcore/postrock/metal
ok thanks
>>63350053
Good chart. Some real classics.
Honestly, the only album I haven't heard is Examination of the... - Lady in the Radiator. Gonna go check that shit.
>>63350188
its very nice
idk if youve heard any of their others but its like in between their early stuff which is screamo and the whitest is of elephants, being straight up sludge metal
i think its definitely their best
p sassy band too
reminder that this album deserves your love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilUkysnqLnk
>>63349939
>>63337200
if its going to be like their last album im not very hyped. it was just mediocre indie rock

but ive never really liked mock orange that much even their classic stuff
i am hyped about this ep coming out in 2 days

>This semester has so thoroughly destroyed me though I'm seriously thinking about dropping out of this one
sorry to hear about your loss, but also this
"WHAT DID YOU DO!?"
A lot of emo centers on the feeling of lost love and the pain of relationships or unrequited love.
Is there any albums that deal with dating a lot of girls and feeling NOTHING? The feeling of searching for love and being completely unable to feel that sensation? The feeling of never having been loved from the day you were born?
Sidenote: is it impossible to love another person if you weren't raised with any familial love? Did I miss important "programming" for life?
we /dead/
Emoe pls help

There is a Brazilian emo/indie rock band called Violins. They're pretty highly rated on RYM. Anyone know where I can download their albums? They aren't on what.cd nor could I find them in the archive. Here's a sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5GyOuKr5Qg

i dont think the lyrics are meant to be particularly meaningful
just sad & emo situations that came to his mind while writing

would you like all three or just the OP pic shown above?

New favorite album. i swear to god its the catchiest thing of all time. if you dont know now you know
Pinegrove - Cardinal
https://pinegrove.bandcamp.com/album/cardinal
listen and feel
>>63355307
h-here...
>>63355397
yeah this is probably my aoty so far
it grew on me so much. at first i didn't like it that much but ive listened to it like 10 times now and its great
>>63355481
I didnt connect with it fully at first because of its country influence, it threw me for a loop and now ive completely fallen in love with it. Theres nothing like it its that good
>>63343619
Sounds a lot like Zoé's programatron (without the synths).
>>63355397
Currently listening to it, let's see what they got.
>>63355456
BECK has been in my backlog since forever, i might give it a shot this weekend.

THANK YOU
My favorite of their albums. I miss prehistoric emo.
>>63357212
Wait, would Boy's Life be considered prehistoric emo? I guess Embrace and Rites of Spring would make more sense. 1996 was kind of around the time of the heart of real O.G. emo, I suppose.

I will warn you, every girl that looks the part is a total cunt with severe mental issues under their skin. They're also impossible to approach and they all talk disingenuously an sarcastic because they have never had a genuine personal moment in their lives.

Whenever if ever it's okay, i didn't like harmlessness.
>>63361575
i hope you like yourself ;^D
>>63361575
Short answer: no.
Long answer: We like most of their pre-Between Bodies stuff, and we love a ton of the other related bands. There are still a ton of people on /mu/ who like them, but we will make fun of you for it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCxop-1wDTQ

>>63359543
Wait until VR gfs become a thing, then make your own.
>>63362452

how did you find me on slsk btw?
>>63362608
yeah i love that ep. great channel overall
>>63362748
looking for that my ex album
>>63362829
When i came back home and checked i noticed that the filenames were all fucked up, i corrected them in that zip.
Did you liked it?
>>63362972
didn't hear it yet, but downloaded; thanks buddy
>>63363133
I already said that i don't like TWIABP that much ffs.
>>63363217
lol
>>63361575
i love Whenever, If Ever
haven't heard the newer stuff desu but it can't be that bad, can it?
you should prolly check out Athletics and Moving Mountains
even after all this time i still cant quite figure it out ive tried over and over again but nothing ever changes somethings wrong and im sorry i dont know why its not your fault everythings my fault its not you its me
who would you say is a band that clearly distinguishes itself from the "generic" bulk but couldn't be called "gimmicky" either?
>>63364345
strange mangers
>>63350378
emo is dead
>>63353515
it's pretty good. nothing mindblowing but nice
>>63336763
shit chart missing heaps of essentials
>>63365227
what do u think of mine>>63350053
Be honest, how many of you have listened to this guy
>>63365227
He didn't even put Rites of Spring or Embrace.
The fucking pioneers of emo for fucks sake.
Note to tripfags making charts:
Make them as "YOUR" favorites, not essenials. If that picture gets floated around to a newbie, he's gonna get into the genre on the wrong foot.
>phone vibrates
>check it to see who's texting me
>YOUR PHONE IS NOW COMPLETELY CHARGED
>>63365560
>>63365227
as much as i love rites of spring and embrace (especially), i don't think they're necessary listens to get into the emo to come after them. i'm not trying to make "an essential collection of historically important emo albums," just trying to say "here's 100 good-ass records if you're new to emo"
>>63365651
it literally says "a beginners guide" tho
>>63365657
as in guiding beginners into a bunch of cool things so they can see what sort of stuff they like and don't like and get into it more for themselves, not beginners guide to the development of the genre over time
there are already enough smaller "essentials" charts that do that
>>63365697
that wouldnt be a beginners guide then
>>63365704
i think we disagree on what the scope of a beginner's guide is
i would never show somebody that had never heard emo music before rites of spring or moss icon or embrace. the vast majority of emo music sounds nothing like the early emocore, and that stuff has a certain edge to it that's in the awkward in-between of pleasant midwest stuff and abrasive screamo (which most newbs come in looking for one or the other)
when you have listened to a bunch of different kinds of emo records and you like them all, you might wonder "huh, wonder how all this shit started"
/then/ you listen to the early emocore.
just because it's the beginnings of emo doesn't mean it's for beginners. the point is to get people into the genre, not to get them knowledgeable about it.
>>63365382
i haven't
should i?
>>63365753
>to get people into the genre
why would you ever want this
>>63365785
idg what you mean
it's those people that want it, would you not let them?
>>63365798
just look at the current state of this general that should be enough to understand what i mean
oh boy, is this new?
>>63365918
who cares
>>63365828
all generals eventually turn into circlejerking or shitposting, that's not the fault of newfriend influx
>>63365936
if anything fresh interested folks would tone down the shitposting/circlejerking
though they would increase the amount of "hey anything like american football?????" posts (not like those are uncommon now)
All of the charts you guys post are blatantly outdated by at least 5 years. Half of them include EPs and shit by bands that have since released multiple, vastly better albums.
>>63365780
Why not.
It's like an entirely inversed version of what emo is.
Go listen to the album What Is Love by him.
It's so sickly sweet it takes fucking courage to sit through. He has a pretty good pop sensibility though.
>>63366047
lol literally the only two charts posted in this thread were made within the last 5 days
>>63366070
Then whoever's posting them has terrible taste.
For example: Using the terrible 10 minute long Bandcamp demo EP from TWAIBP when they've since released two actual studio albums. Who the fuck is like "yeah man, that demo EP that's ten minute long with olde members who've left the band is better than Harmlessness."
Fucking nobody.
Best Emo album of the 2010s stop fucking around you all have terrible taste
Is there any way to make some sort of petition or mass campaign to completely get rid of trips/names?
I know they have their uses for threads where content is being posted, but I feel like you should select "assign an ID for this thread" when making a thread so that we never deal with people trying to pathetically form some sort of identity for attention.
It would work great; the ID would just say OP in red text or something, and you'd never be able to know who it is aside from that. Trips could've been used sparingly as a rare tool, but now it's just for egotistical people. You've all abused it and now everyone hates you.
This is fucking essential. And a hell of a lot better than Hotelier
>>63366091
umm like
not only do I definitely think it's been all downhill since that demo EP, but so do most of the people around here that consistently post :V
>>63366139
Than you all have laughably bad taste. Please hang yourself.
>>63366139
>umm like
> :V
>posting with a trip
Please take your trip off, nobody's impressed.
>>63366150
i'd rather not. formlessness just has a strength in songwriting unmatched by the stuff on whenever/harmlessness. the lower production value is more than compensated for by the not-boring songs
>>63366167
You're trying so hard to be a contrarian it's embarrassing.
>>63366167
please dont reply to any more of his posts
>>63366165
if i was trying to impress people i wouldn't be on 4chan
i don't get why everyone thinks being a trip is about attention. there are much easier ways to get positive attention, and since a trip is a pseudonym on an anonymous board i don't even know how the benefits of that attention would be useful unless you had a painfully self-centered personality.
i use a trip because it's useful for demonstrating that i'm not a viral marketer when i post a really obscure bandcampcore-type release. it was all too often i used to come and share a cool record i found only to get like five replies saying "lol which instrument do you play in the band? its shit btw"
i also use a trip because i'm mildly entertained by angry shitposters like yall who freak out about this kind of thing
it's 4chan. it literally doesn't matter at all
>>63366167
"not-boring"
Lemme guess. You also furiously masturbate to Explosions in the Sky and other vaguely entertaining aimless post-rock garage.
"Unmatched." The songs are fucking 2 minute long demos.
There's a reason the band never plays that shit live. because it's awful and nobody wants to hear it.
>>63366185
if i was trying to be a contrarian i wouldn't be a huge fan of ostensibly pleb tier stuff like american football or the hotelier or whatever
i just honestly really liked formlessness, and then when their albums came out i was disappointed by them. what am i supposed to do, pretend the songs are more interesting than they are? the harmonies just aren't as moving and the melodies are less gripping.
>>63366210
"post a really obscure bandcampcore-type "
Except it's not that at all. It's a bad demo by a band who's fairly large for Emo now and has achieved "universal acclaim" on Metacritic
Lemme guess. You also have some sort of nonsense sob story about how you were 12 and that demo changed your life
>>63366210
>i use a trip because it's useful for demonstrating that i'm not a viral marketer when i post a really obscure bandcampcore-type release
dumbest thing ive ever heard maybe
>>63366230
>harmonies just aren't as moving and the melodies are less gripping.
LOL. I bet you're 14 and love blink 182 also
That's the entire point of being a contrarian. Stop trying to skirt around this. It's like people who post that shit tier latest rock Kid Cudi album and argue about hoe incredible it is and we're all wrong and every critic is as well
>>63366215
there's some good post rock, yeah, but a lot of it is just boring crescendos. it's hard to write captivating harmonic progressions when so much of it's been overdone, and usually third-wave post-rock bands that are just guitarists aren't creative enough with timbre or arrangement to make up for their lack of creativity with harmony.
i was disappointed that they didn't play it live when i saw them, personally. but then again they've only made it to the stage they have because they put out such simpler stuff on whenever, if ever
>>63366230
Please post a picture of your face with a timestamp.
I believe that if you're going to try and attain an identity on an anonymous image board, you might as well be entirely truthful; no half assing.
I know you would never do it because only little faggots post with trips.
>>63336763
Thank you
>>63366215
>>63366262
you have yet to lay down why Harmlessness is better, or the songs on that demo are worse
protip: that does not follow from either of these
>the songs are short
>they don't play it live anymore
>you disagree with popular opinion
>i assume you like those other bands that have nothing to do with this
>>63366238
look i'm not even talking about formlessness with that statement, read it again
>>63366262
i'm an adult, dude. but not that that matters. you haven't made a single cogent statement yet, just judgmentally asserted that because i think the four songs on formlessness are far more interesting than their other work that i must be some raging contrarian trying to stand out. pretty small dataset to make that judgment with.
i hate contrarianism as much as you do, dude.
>>63366250
it's true though. people post their own or their friend's garbage on here all the time because they're anonymous. just look at nouns.
>>63366281
>timbre
" timbre" "guitarists"
I don't think you know what timbre means. Because you're not using it right lol. Stop. You have absolutely no clue what you're saying at this point.
Being creative with timbre.
Are you a fucking retard?
Timbre is the distinctive sound of a note made by an instrument. It's that instruments quality.
It's what makes you know the difference between a Piano and a Guitar playing the same note. You can tell the instruments apart by their timbre.
How are they supposed to be creative with timbre? "Gee lemme make my guitar sound like a fucking bassoon man, really change the timbre here"
>>63366317
I've posted Nouns a few times because Dogs is a fucking banger.
Please post your face, thanks
>>63366288
why would i do this? i already said i don't care about my identity on here and am not interested in attention, except inasmuch as response might entertain me.
>>63366330
Spittin' FIRE my homie
>>63366330
you're stupid if you think guitarists can't be creative with timbre. why do you think they employ so many different pieces of equipment? is there not a difference in timbre between a distorted guitar and a clean one? or between the bridge pickup and the neck pickup?
i've been formally educated in music too, bucko
you're getting really mad about this
>>63338021
/emoe/ actually cares about music tho.
Who cares about the animu?
>>63366340
>why would i do this?
i dont know
why did you do it once before
>>63366312
You can;t even compare them. One is a 10 minute demo they made with a macbook. The other is a 50+ minute professionally recorded studio album. The band members are different. The arrangements are different.
No actual review site is going to compare them because nobody is dumb enough to try and argue you appoint aside from you.
>>63366362
because i like sal and i thought that thread was pretty funny. like i said earlier this site doesn't matter at all and i don't really care much about interacting with it except inasmuch as it entertains me and exposes me to new media
>>63366340
The best part of you posting with a trip is that I can go on RBT and see EVERYTHING you've posted. You're leaving a real gnarly trail of faggotry buckaroo.
>>63366387
enjoy it
i'm surprised you care enough about someone you're supposedly so annoyed and angered by to browse through their posts though
>>63366362
Link? I want to know what this fuckhead looks like. Every time a trip posts their face (which they love to do) it's always a little worm that would never DARE to say this shit to people in real life.
>>63366402
i've never said anything particularly dramatic here; the other guy is the only one being angsty and calling me a faggot and such
i'd say everything i said here to anyone who was interested in talking about it. in fact i have in real life in discussions about twiabp
Let's examine the lyrics.
Yeah, this http://genius.com/The-world-is-a-beautiful-place-and-i-am-no-longer-afraid-to-die-eyjafjallajokull-dance-lyrics
Is clearly a whole lot better and " just has a strength in songwriting unmatched "
compared to this
http://genius.com/The-world-is-a-beautiful-place-and-i-am-no-longer-afraid-to-die-january-10th-2014-lyrics
don't care about emo desu senpai
what good anime have come out in the past 3 years? i've been slacking
>>63366402
For real. Usually some nerdy greasy fuck
>>63366411
look i've never paid attention to the lyrics in anything by them, except between bodies since it was hard not to pay attention
i was talking strictly about the composition of the songs
>>63366415
Monogatari
Prison School but the anime is shit compared to the manga
Your Lie in April
Showa Geko Rakugo
>>63366395
Not browsing your posts, just saying that you're gonna regret it when someone puts two and two together and finds your real name and fucks your shit up.
>>63366383
meh i don't think professional production quality is a such big feat, anyone could have that with enough money, neither is the length of an album or song. if i valued those as much as you seem to, i would be listening to dream theater only. that's ridiculous
>No actual review site is going to compare them
appeal to "authority"
>>63366411
>implying songwriting = lyricism
holy pleb
>>63366446
"hey did you see this guy has OPINIONS on a MUSIC BOARD? he likes ANIME"
"oh god, guess i'll have to fire him"
