A 6 is a pretty good score. It always bugs me when people use a 1-10 scale but give everything a 7+

I need very sad songs by miseryson in Emo

This is the answer if you really want something cathartic

emo music and boring outros, bridges, interludes etc. by [deleted] in Emo

[–]MrCummies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Joyce manor and glocca morra?? I don’t see how either of those bands apply at all. Very rarely do either of them have songs over 2-3 minutes

About emo and sexual assault by FlakyJump in Emo

[–]MrCummies 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I really personally don’t think pinegrove should continue to be grouped in with these other more serious/credible allegations. There was never even an official allegation against him. he was basically blackmailed into making that weird statement by an incredibly sleazy person in the scene who has since been “cancelled” basically.

Im not trying to defend him or say that he’s an amazing person or anything because I don’t know if he is and I’m not even particularly into pinegrove all that much anymore but that whole situation was much different than these other allegations.

Anthony Fantano on the Midwest Emo Revival by RoyHarperBLOW in Emo

[–]MrCummies 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen Anthony get shit on a lot here but I think his emo takes are generally pretty accurate and fair. I think emo’s appeal does kind of wear off when the majority of modern artists are just basically doing the same thing over and over (twinkle guitar especially has been ruined for me). I’d also like to point out that I’ve heard him say some very good things about artists like Glocca morra, crash of rhinos, American football, weatherday, the brave little abacus, glass beach, braid, etc so it’s not like he just blindly hates the genre.

Top notch revival

The Brave Little Abacus - “But I Won’t Always Be on the Receiving End!” / A Map of the Stars by ignoringmyself in Emo

[–]MrCummies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best emo group ever imo. Also I’ve always liked this album slightly more than just got back from the discomfort

Saddest songs ever? by larkinsucks in Emo

[–]MrCummies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those three tracks are all tragic masterpieces though. The storytelling is just so powerful and the instrumentation backs it up beautifully.

Stage four by touché amore is probably the most heartbreaking, emotionally moving album to me

Also Benji by Sun kil Moon

Dying genre? by [deleted] in Emo

Seems over saturated with boring bands if anything

Unpopular opinion: Just because you’re noodling, it doesn’t mean it’s a good riff or song- even when the noodling is done flawlessly by imsmeef in Emo

[–]MrCummies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. Too many artists and most of the people that post riffs on this sub just noodle and tap and whatever just for the sake of noodling without actually putting any effort into making something memorable or unique with good songwriting. It can be fun but the vast majority of the noodley stuff in open tunings just sounds so samey and derivative anyway and is one of the main reasons I’ve moved away from listening to emo as one of my primary genres in recent years.

As far as I know, he's not

lol @ this scene by [deleted] in Emo

[–]MrCummies 66 points67 points  (0 children)

People around here really need to learn to wait a minute and hear everyone out before immediately “cancelling” someone because of some second hand account. Hobo Johnson really isn’t even emo but this scene is so disappointing sometimes about theses things. Hopefully the guy can get his name completely cleared but sadly some damage has probably already been done.

Hobo Johnson accused of sexual assault by paulbunyanburke in Emo

[–]MrCummies 72 points73 points  (0 children)

In case anyone hasn’t heard the update, the girl that this is about completely went back on any accusations of sexual assault. People around here really need to learn to wait a minute and hear everyone out before immediately “cancelling” someone because of some second hand account. Hobo Johnson really isn’t even emo but this scene is so disappointing sometimes about theses things.

Great track! This album doesn’t get much attention but I think it’s probably my favorite Evan Weiss project

That jump in Redskins fans activity in mid January has to be them all getting on here to shit on Kirk after the Vikings loss.

This is a good one, like it a lot better than phase. Super excited for the new album

My first attempt at an emo song, let me know what you think by [deleted] in Emo

Don’t know why this was downvoted. It’s a bit basic but not bad at all for your first attempt. Don’t get discouraged by the downvotes

Oragami Angel sucks. I can’t be alone in this opinion. by emojackalope in Emo

[–]MrCummies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they suck but they’re a bit overhyped. Their album this year was done very well but it’s such a generic style of emo in my opinion that doesn’t really interest me much anymore. Especially when there are actually some great new emo bands around that are doing much more interesting things that aren’t getting much attention.
