What does /mu/ think about this band?How do they compare to other Emo bands that were popular at around the same time as them?Favorite album?Thoughts on their albums and how they progressed.Taking back sunday thread
>>132032492They're good. Or, they were good. They haven't made anything worthwhile since Fred left. He carried that band on his back. Those first three albums are staples in the genre for a reason though.
>>132032492Total alkaline trio victory
>>132032833I really like New Again I think that one's good, they only really got outright bad with the last album.
>>132032492One of the best Emo-Pop bands of all time. Fuck Jimmy Eat World.
>>132035642Brand New has better writing than nearly any emo band besides the first few Bright Eyes albums
>>132035743They just sort of stopped writting Emo music after Deja, and there are far better albums than that one.Even then, I don't think they reached highs of stuff like Cursive, Sunny Day Real Estate or Thursday, so I do not know if I'd call them the best.
>>132032492Louder now is a top quality emo album
>>132038048The three first albums are some of the best Emo albums out there.
>>132032492pretty good back then, though I don't know if their recent albums are any good
Take back Saturday first
>>132032492The reappraisal of 2000s emo is incredible to behold. Yall are fucking retarded for thinking this is anything other than some music these guys made to impress and fuck 16 year oldsI'll give you MCR being fine but 2000s emo is no different than 80s hair metal
>>132041870>YallDon't speak like a retard please, I'm not black and I hope neither are you.>I'll give you MCR being fine but 2000s Why are they an exception? How are they better than Taking Back Sunday? Is this your opinion or did you borrow it from someone? you shallow empty fuck? MCR were considered to be THE ultiamte 80s like hair metal band. No one respected them, Taking Back Sunday had far more cred than MCR ever had.I will agree with you that later Mall shit is basically very much so like hair metal, but Taking Back Sunday still came too early, they are very obviosuly taking from the likes of Lifetime and Saves The Day, they are still rooted in proper Emo, you probably don't know this though because you don't do your own research, get your own opinions.
>>132032882This
>>132041976???
>>132032492Not emo. Taking Back Sunday came out after the death of emo (read: after JEW released The Middle)
>>132032492this band was bigger than MCR back in the day but they get 1/10th of the discussion here. i don't get it.
>>132045192MCR had a whole aesthetic that made them arguably more popular than the music itself. i dont even know what the members of taking back sunday look like
>>132045212Searching on the internet, they looked like a bunch of random emokids in the 2000s, and now they look like dads.
>>132035904Brand New is infinitely better than Thursday and cursive. What a pleb take.
