what are some emo albums that experiment with the genre a bit?
>>54996497
> arena emo
> dat 3 stars
But seruously tho, I guess Coheed would be the closest, though they're not really emo at all.
harriet the spy
>>54996497
always wanted to do this, also Nouns are pretty forward thinking http://nounss.bandcamp.com/track/dogs tho sometimes it's barely emo
>>54998187
so I'm not the only one who thought that was ian at first? the only reason i even listened to the album was because i thought ian mackaye was on the cover.
3/10 album
>>54998381
is that the band or the album name?
>>54998381
filtered ;^)
>>54998422
not quirky enough to be either for neo-emo
>>54998438
Wow dude you're missing out!!
KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISS MEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>54998784
but i don't want to....
>>54998784
>>54998808
does anyone even know what the lyrics mean?
>>54998821
The entire thing is a pallindrome! .. not really..
"While being in that band I definitely went through a lot of various periods of drama regarding my parents and whatnot. I mean those records are all pretty representative of my last years of being a kid and living at home ha ha, so I suppose that was pretty bound to happen. But, a lot of the catharsis that I would seek out would more often than not lead me to their love and just how much of it I had. I think it's awesome that that element found its way to you." -Adam
>>54998381
wrong opinion
>>54998873
figured it had something to do with his relationship with his parents but still a lot of the lyrics don't make sense.
>>54998933
(to you)
>>54998944
>hat of greens shows symmetry in front of hat alone sits, me
>>54998381
didn't Marcel give that album 1/10 or some shit
yet he gave the new Perfect Pussy LP a 7/10 lmao
>>54998381
0/10 taste
>>54998963
>not getting the reference
(he's talking about a christmas tree)
>>54999001
is there a single person on this planet that takes that little shitstain seriously
why does he even bother
>>54999099
nice dubs
>>54999070
>i should intimidate you as you should intimidate yourself
>>54999099
he constantly gets followed by record labels and musicians and they almost always share his album reviews that he wrote about them so i guess he kinda matters to them? idk they're more underground labels and artists though
i like how Pity Sex fuses emo with shoegaze
they're not the first to do it but still.
>>54999122
That was a quote.
Here are the official lyrics!
Hat of greens shows symmetry. In front of hat, alone, sits me. Fourth day, I don't want, in anyway, to be reliving. It won't be that bad again because this can't amount in comparison. "I should intimidate you as you should intimidate yourself!" Thirty minutes of make-up for all to see but you___are not what I want you to be. (Universal): there, at three a.m. on the first of a year, when it started, I'm not sure, in a jumper, with a bracelet on your right wrist that turns with a golden knob, opening amidst a "dense yellow light, fading to reveal an infinite sky," and "juxtaposed to the accelerating swell of the musical score, pushes its audience to realize just what is ahead, the characters' fear and the physical manifestation of their hopes and dreams coming closer and closer." Kiss me. My dad says things that make me laugh, he meows Tom Petty songs and that is why I stay, unlike running water, I can't run away, there are more here than merely bodies, things without fear of surrounding me, branches to catch me falling, perhaps someone who understands that when I say I'm sad I mean it, that there is no excuse "I need this". What I said about "hat of greens" has led me to see that my superimposition of a face upon a poster on its way, arriving any day, that will accompany me every night in a welcoming of rest, tacked on to the drywall surrounding me will probably return me to this "fading," the sky being a bedroom, "kiss me". "But I don't want to."
>>54999283
still doesn't explain what it means.
>>54999345
Try using context clues to decipher the meaning behind it! Remember it's art not an instruction manual, not everything isn't in black and white ;^)
>>54999345
Which part
>>54999422
the intimidate quote.
>>54999501
see
>>54999398
and learn some reading comprehension
>>54999501
"I should intimidate you and you should intimidate you as well"
>>54999570
Nope.
"I should intimidate you as you should intimidate yourself!"
>>54999551
so you don't understand what it means, you could've just said that.
>>54999911
>I'm retarded please spoon feed me 4th grade reading comprehension
emo is decent
>>54999975
it's fine to admit it, you're safe here.
the context doesn't matter, the sentence "you should intimidate yourself" just doesn't make sense.

>only oldfags would get this
>>55000069
>The context doesn't matter
>>55000200
context being him sitting in front of a christmas tree? or wanting in on the fourth day? or something not being as bad as something was before? or someone putting on make up even though that's not what he wants? Yeah, lots of context here for that quote to make sense.
>>55000271
>Context only means the first three sentences before the quote
>>55000271
do you always take lyrics as literally as possible?
>>55000271
**retard alert**
>>54996497
emo is one of the worst genres ever. it appeals to pretentious and loser kids in high school with muuuhhh problems. The only good emo band is Moss Icon and i'd consider them more post-hardcore than emo anyways.
>>55000130
how is this experimental at all
>>55000702
>pretentious
how ironic
>>55000702
>pretentious
i don't think you've ever listened to emo before.
>>55000732
>>55000743
no the users are pretentious. and you all have shit taste for liking such a shit genre. post-hardcore is the more mature and adult version of emo. Emo is the little annoying brother who won't fuck off and tries to do everything its older bro is doing but fails miserably.
Emo is shit. There is not one good emo band and or artist. Like I said before, Moss Icon is the only redeemable band. And once again, they're more post-hardcore.
I bet the both of you are 14-17
>>55000807
21, and i like both emo and post hardcore.
>>55000732
lol how qt, look he has epic may-may reaction gifs saved on his computer xDDDD
to top it off, you're a weeaboo fag. Fuck off back to /r/lewronggeneration with the rest of the dilettante. Now excuse me while I enjoy Boces by Mercury Rev in peace because I actually have something called good taste.
>>55000807
>muh maturity, look how big I've grown mom!
>>55000837
I don't get what that guys' problem is. I think emo blows, too, but he doesn't have to be a dick about it. Good for you for liking things, man.
>>55000807
>>55000843
You call others pretentious and then say everyone who likes something you don't has "shit taste". Pretty ironic and hypocritical of you.
Also a bit pathetic to come to a thread just to demean others. You boast of your age yet seem the most immature. Hmm.
>>55000858
don't make fun of him, his mom says he's mature for his age.
>>55000843
>Mercury Rev
>>55000875
>implying i'm a guy
lol
nah, i just don't like 2 quirky 4 u indie pop muhhh feels emo drivel. I actually have taste. and people should stop liking emo because then they'd realize how shit it actually is.
now who's the mature one lol
?
>>55000843
>lol how qt, look he has epic may-may reaction gifs saved on his computer xDDDD

i don't know what the fuck you're listening to.
>i'm a grill btw
>now who's the mature one lol?
keep going man you're doing great.
>>55000933
nice dubs. nice reaction images friendo :^)
>>55000893
lel it's your first month on mu because if you have been here long enough you'd realize how pathetic emo of a genre really is.
>>55000893
mercury rev is goat, btw. unlike american football and all of those other plebby emo shit bands.
>>55000843
>typical noise pop fan
>>55000997
>mercury rev is goat,
you misspelled shit ;^)
>>55000997
Here's your reply
>>55000976
that's basically emo for ya. there may be the occasional band or two that sound pretty raw and closer to the hardcore sound (most of these end up being the older bands, for a reason obviously) but all of it is shitty and sounds like this awful band https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovq9UsNTjYk
>those awful lyrics
>that awful musicianship
>those fucking awful groans
>those whiny as fuck vocal
wimpy as indie pop shit.

love this meme, 5 out of 5 meme points to you good sir ;^)
>>54996497
Brave Little Abacus isn't emo
but discomfort is still amazing
masked dancers is better and less /mu/core tho
>Dancing figures, intimate, I know, but, there was more involved that made me believe that there were two of them and only one of me.
>>55001205
>better
great album, but no
>>55001245
>>55001205
or actually, instead of being a closed minded faggot, why do you like more about it?
>>55001205
I'm not sure who Brave Little Abacus is but The Brave Little Abacus is emo.
>>55001245
>I see it too, map of the stars, born again so many times, underground
Less cohesive, maybe; better, possibly
>>55001205
>Brave Little Abacus isn't emo
ok Adam :^)
>>54999150
pity sex is dope af
>>55001287
Brave Little Abacus is The Brave Little Abacus
>>55001287
Lol the name of the band is the "Brave Little Abacus". The is implied like the Grateful dead. And they're not emo. Ask Adam.
>>55001299
does he not consider it emo?
i love emo
>>55001299
Lol
>>55001349

>>55001349

>>55001326
fuck off adam
no one cares what you think
>>55001495
i do!
>>55001440
he billed it as experimental rock. and used the word math like once. That's all we got.
>>55001349
That's his instagram you can find him yourself, I don't want /mu/ hounding him sorry.
Drive like Jehu
Why would you ever listen to Emo when Slowcore exists?
>>55001505
Adam, I said fuck off.
>>55001510
>used the word math like once
Confirmed emo
>>55001510
i mean we can hear it just as well as he can, it's not like his is the final word.
>>54999737
I mean that >>54999570 is the meaning
>>54999070
Adam is a nice dude.
>>55001541
So you quoted yourself? That is, your own interpretation of the meaning?
>>55001566
Yes he is.
>>55001534
I think I've had enough /mu/ for one day.
>>55001566
on that vid from final show he seemed like the best human around, but reading what's hes written here >>55001349 hating on all my dear twinkle emo just kills me inside :(
>>55001633
But he's a retarded pleb
>>55001679
Yes, please go, Adam.
>>55001702
He was just sick of getting hounded by pretentious indie faggots that think their RYM opinions matter. Trust me he's the nicest guy ever.
>>55001712
>But he's a retarded pleb
>he's
You misspelled "I am" ;^)
>>55001712
>tfw I wish I actually was Adam.
>>55001764

>>55001702
I saw both of those fags in a bar once.
>>55001978
>using dick as an insult
stupid nigger
twinkle is a terrible genre. No surprise he doesn't want to be grouped with shit like snowing.
>>55002398
no you
Is it too late to troll this thread with the rest of the 'nothing better to do in poorastan' shit heads?
>>55002637
