The guys that did The Middle are a legit good band wtf
>>129962289yeah they're good, real second wave emo that somehow ended up with some mainstream success for a bitnever liked them as much as some of the other 2nd wave OGs but gotta respect ithttps://youtu.be/iXP0dB0ZUwc
>>129962289Best emo album of all time
I know it's mainstream but I'm just gonna say it, I think Bleed American is a good album
>>129962920That's their second album
>>129963277I prefer Futures from their more commercial albums
what's wrong with The Middle?
>>129963830It's their Creep
IT JUST TAKES SOME TIME
>>129962289It's too melodramatic and whiny for me>>129963610static prevails had more rawness into it, but we'll that's how I like my emo
>>129963277don't gotta be ashamed of mainstream stuff being good my dude. good album by a good band
>>129963830The chorus is insanely annoying and the song in general sounds like it was made for Radio Disney.
>>129963277For me it's "Your'e House" I'm sucker for the melodramatic simple pop stuff.
>>129965240Especially at 3:30 it just starts turning into a proper BOP gets self-indulgent with that chorus and throws in a keyboard synth driving in the background. Real melodramatic goopy, sugary, stuff.
IF YOU DON'TKNOWHONEY THEN JUST SAY SO
>>129963830It sucks. They have tons of others that mog it completely
Sweetness >>> The Middle
>>129963277You're right to think that. Bleed American is a classic
>>129963805Work, Pain and 23 are some of their best songs
>>129963277so brave
>>129963830it's bubblegum pop and the songs that were cut from the album are way betterhttps://youtu.be/UFa_SOQnB-M?si=UokemysKCCnCJNB0https://youtu.be/zw9wZyWErz4?si=cQMZ3-b3piurDu0Q
>>129963805Futures is underrated and my favorite album of theirs
IT TAKES MY PAIN AWAY
>>129962289best emo band for a reason.
>>129966231they cut these songs? wtfNever heard any of the bonus tracks
>>129962289Just Watch the Fireworks and Goodbye Sky Harbor are incredible. I get why they moved to pop rock, and the title track from Bleed American is fantastic and a couple other tracks on that one were great but it would have been nice if they stuck in the Clarity sound another album.
>>129965988the original right?
Futures is their best album
>>129962289I know we're just supposed to caps lock lyrics spam but seriously NOTHING THAT MAKES SENSE EVER WORKS OUT hits harder the older I get
IM NOT CRAZY CAUSE I TAKE THE RIGHT PILLS
>>129976023DONT KID YOURSELF YOU KNOW. THEY WANT MONEY
SPINNINGAND SPINNINGDO YOU BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU WAAAANT
>>129966794Futures has some beautiful and dark kind of songs on it
>>129974293>>129978654YOU'LL SIT ALONE FOREVER IF YOU WAIT FOR THE RIGHT TIMEWHAT ARE YOU HOPING FOR
>>129962289what i would say to you now is one of the best emo sings ever written imo
>>129978654Precisely why I like it so much. One of my favorite late autumn/winter albums.
>>129962410>second wave emoStupid ass TikTok term. Was Saetia second wave? What about Boysetsfire? And what about third wave emo and screamo bands? Stop repeating social media buzzwords like parrots and develop your own fucking opinions already.>>129962289Great album.
>>129981256tiktok? I've never used that app in my life, people have been doing the wave thing categorizing emo since at least 2006, before then I coudln't tell you. Look at the wiki page on the wayback machine if you don't believe me. At least 20 years deep into this term, I think you can relax now.>>129981256>Was Saetia second wave?Saetia is skramz, the other one I've never heard of
For me this is their best release>RATHER LIVE MY LIFE IN REGRET THEN DO THIS
>>129981256Boysetsfire is trannycore
>>129981624THIS POISON COMES INSTRUCTION FREE
Probably one of my favorite biggest Emo bands, right next to Thursday, which is funny because these two bands sound inherently so different, but their weird commercial success and defining Emo for 2000s sort of connects them.I don't think they made a single bad album, they have some great stuff even after Post-Futures, Chase This Light kicks a lot of assDamage is really underrated straight-forward Alt.Rock album, reminds me a lot of Bleed American but even more in your face.Integrity Blues is a great album that seems like a more polished up attempt of several things they were doing at Invented into a more structured albumSurviving is also great.Just great band one of the best Emo-Pop acts around probably.>>129963277Jimmy Eat World always had a huge Pop appeal, Sweetness was supposed to originally supposed to be on Clarity. Invented is a really interesting record where they're doing anything, some of these songs sound like Clarity.
>>129981624This
As awful as the emo-pop/scene kid thing was, there were actually a few great bands with connections to real emo/post-hardcore, like Jimmy Eat World, Brand New, and Taking Back Sunday.I never liked Fall Out Boy with the exception of one song, Sugar We're Going Down, which I would argue is a straight up midwest emo song.
