Hell ya. Brand New has amazing album art.
While not necessarily 'emo', more emotional hardcore punk or post-hardcore...but in the same scene or major influencers of what we call emo nowdays...
For those who never saw pg99 back in the early 2000s, they have some reunion shows with Majority Rule (also awesome). Shows are gauranteed to sell out quick and will be awesome.

The first album by Narra (ex-Marietta people) is out on their Bandcamp page right now and I like it a lot.

FUCK.
MajRule is one of my favorite bands of all time. Boston show is already sold out. I am so fucking sad right now.
Me too!
Not sold out, I literally just bought tickets from the venues webpage!!!!
Majrule says sold out but venue has tickets!!

The Boston show is definitely sold out. No tix online, and I even went to the venue to see if they had any left. Nope. 
Looks like I'll be paying some broke kid 5x what he paid to hopefully get in.

Damn man. I must've just got that last batch- shows purchase at 7:47pm so I feel real lucky.
If anything happens to my sked you can have my ticket. I'll let you know and keep my ears open for any going around at a reasonable price.
"Randy, I Am The Liquor" is a phenomenal song. Hits the same nerve as "Two Beers In". I think I'm gonna make a booze-emo playlist.

New Perspective, A Lovely Hand to Hold album dropped today.
Partway through my first listen right now but I like it so far.

I ended up getting a ticket for the Saint Vitus show, which went on sale at noon today, so it looks like I'll be traveling to NYC. It'll be worth it. I appreciate the thought for sure, though.

Anyone else just sitting here waiting for TWIABP's 3rd LP?
I need it in my life and I am super curious what their sound is without Derrick.
Also "No Halo" is my song of the year so far.
Speaking of that, here is their newest Little Elephant performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDAswC_gsYk&t=305s

They're huge Preds fans, at least the one dude is. And Four Loko fans. Which in pretty sure you can't get in Canada. Maybe that's a good thing.
Got a record player 2 months ago, so that means I can finally start collecting some vinyls. These are the ones I've bought the last 2 months, with the exception of the bottom one. I actually bought that one after Volcano choir (one of Justin Vernon's from Bon Iver sideprojects) show in 2013, my first ever LP, even though I didn't have a record player just yet.
3 more records on the way: Converge's "Jane Doe" and "All We Love We Leave Behind" and Have Hearts "The Things We Carry", probably in my top 3 of favorite albums off all time.
it's so freaking addictive!

Nice start! It is super addicting..... I have really slowed down in the past year cuz I was spending way too much money.
Yee should get more screamo and Black metal records dewd (unless you don't like them then that's cool)

When it comes to metal, I like it low and slow. Stoner / psych / doom, kinda thing. Speaking of, the new Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs completely rips. I only dabble in black or death, and almost never play speed metal because I'd rather just listen to 80's straight edge bands.
Those 2 Songs:Ohia records are so damn good. I have the deluxe Magnolia Electric Co. and I think I listen to the solo demo disc more than I listen to the album disc, anymore. It has this strange power that sounds ominous and foreboding when you look back through the lens of Jason Molina's tragic end of life.
"... the last thing I see:
Let it be me helping.
Let it be me, honestly.
Let it be me working
on being a better me."

Good. Good.
Harmlessness is best album. Smoke and Felt is an amazing song. Best Bodies takes some time to get into. Formlessness rerecorded is better than the old version.
Glad you enjoy them

what's the album in the dead center below TDAGARIM? i fuck with that album cover heavily.
Songs: Ohia - The Magnolia Electric Co.
One of the best albums off all time and in my top 5 favourite records. Jason Molina (Songs: Ohia is basically his own project although he also released stuff under his own name) is one of the greatest and sadly underappreciated song writers of all time. Sadly died 4 years ago as a result of a life long struggle with alcohol.
Definitely check him out if you're a fan of songs draping with melancholy with subjects of depression, loneliness and love.

Thx! HH is my favorite hardcore band of all time. Whenever I'm going through a tough period, this album helps me get through it.
I'm still hoping for a new La Dispute release this year, although I don't see it happening. Same for Brand New.
No emo, but I'm actually liking the new Rise Against. I found The Black Market to be incredibly dull (with the exception of Tragedy+time), but this is actually a fun and energetic album.
And still obsessed with the new Sorority Noise record. According to my last.fm I've scrobbled them 368 times in the last 2 months. I suppose you guys also know Old Gray? It basically has all the members of SN but instead of emo it's a screamo band. Very intense stuff as well.

New Front Bottoms song. I love it. But I love everything they've done so far. THis is the song that was in two shitty smartphone youtube videos a while back.
How do you like it? What's up with all those negative youtube comments?

Yeah, it was great. Kindling also played shoegaze/indie-pop band with members of Ampere. They're alright.
Pretty decent, comments don't seem that bad? Thumbs up-down ratio seems alright anyway!
They're great. If you love them you're also gonna love Suis La Lune.

Same. It's been my go to when I'm drawing a complete blank on what I feel like listening to, so I put on Best Buds for a while.
I found this weird "mixtape" on YouTube that focuses on the Midwest sound and when a song comes on I like, I'll dive into that band to see if the rest of their stuff checks out.
Really digging this band, Camping in Alaska, who are from Huntsville, AL... possibly the least likely place for an emo band.
This album in particular has a nice Snowing vibe to it:https://campinginalaska.bandcamp.com/album/please-be-nice
Oh, yeah. Jeff Rosenstock put out a 7" with a South Korean ska band called SKASUCKS... a physical 7" with a pay-what-you-want model. By the time I saw it on Instagram, like 2 hours after the post, it was already completely sold out. feels bad

God I wish I was seeing Mom Jeans.
EDIT: Shit didn't see Remo Drive there I was consumed with jealousy after seeing Mom Jeans. Remo Drive would be tight too.
Got Joyce Manor tomorrow night with Martha (who I will hype up again everyone should listen to them). Also Front Bottoms on Sunday. (that gig is actually blink 182 with Frank turner also supporting but Bottoms are the most appropriate for this thread)

Yeah! And I realized I misspelled Remo lol
That's awesome though! I love Blink but without Tom I'm just like... eh
I like California but I definitely realised I missed Tom a bit when I went back and listened to older blink after the album came out. Still, I've heard good things about the shows so far from people I know have been at the other UK gigs this week. Plus Front Bottoms and Frank Turner will make it all the more awesome, I intend to drink a few down and have a damned good time.

I do love me some Bottoms That Which Are In Thine Front.
But seriously that should be an awesome show.
I hope you get to see Mom Jeans and Remo Drive but idk when they would be able to make it to the UK and Europe
Aye I imagine if either came over its be in support of someone, I've seen tiny moving parts twice here and both times they were supporting.
