The Emo Album Club Suggestion Thread

Where are the perimeters? Is Screamo included?

I think the only requirement is that the album has to be considered "emo". I think we'll focus mainly on the second and fourth waves, but I'm sure screamo is welcome too.

Wild Moth - Over, Again

http://wildmoth.bandcamp.com/

Free to stream, 6$ to DL. Came out late last year.

So it's not explicitly emo but they tour with emo bands and have a pretty obvious post hardcore influence on a lot of tracks, in addition to a ton of other influences that meld together for one unique sound. I rep this band up as much as I can, they're great and deserve more attention.

I'm going to suggest a brand new album that I just got that I'm really looking forward to listening to.

Modern Baseball - You're Gonna Miss It All

Isbjørn · 02-06-2014, 10:22 AM

My suggestion is Grow Up, Dude by You Blew It!

Butthead previously suggested it, and I found it interesting.

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, making a mini-review.

Also, I have a suggestion. We all know that the votes are supposed to be counted on every second Friday. Therefore, I suggest that anyone can count the votes and make official what album we will listen to. Yesterday I didn't have time to count the votes. If you see that the day is coming to an end and I have not yet counted the votes, feel free to do it yourself. If all albums got equally many votes, just pick the first one that was suggested.

What do you guys think about that?

For the next album, I suggest Park Jefferson's enonymous full-length.

It's available for free on bandcamp, (name your price).

Are Modern Baseball worth getting into?
My flatmate's pretty high on them and they're one of the bands that's been sniffing around my last fm recommendations for some time.
Any distinguishable characteristics to them/their music?

Rainer Maria - Look Now Look Again

Midwest Emo. That's a thing right?
