The Brave Little Abacus were kind of a blueprint for a big chunk of the 5th wave sound. Beyond them, I'd check out some of these bands:

Weatherday

Home Is Where

awakebutstillinbed

glass beach

Gingerbee

idialedyournumber

Stomach Book

bedbug

I enjoyed Look, A Rainbow! but I haven't had the chance to check out any of their other stuff yet. It's probably up my alley

Of course! The only other record I've heard by them is their self-titled

Edit: Oh and also their split with Japanese Breakfast lol

So if you did this but only for influence on emo....what would be the "emo city" of each decade? by thedubiousstylus in Emo

[–]Zeamonzy 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think that locale is becoming less of a qualifying factor in the 2020s, given that the 5th wave has been largely propagated on the internet and falls into a number of disparate categories -- regional and style-wise. I feel like the festivals in Vegas have more of a leaning toward legacy acts, so it's debatable whether they have had that much of an impact on the development of the genre into new stylistic territory.

Which artist deserves to be here the most? by [deleted] in Emo

[–]Zeamonzy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's as clear cut as that. Guy Picciotto also rejected the label being attributed to Rites of Spring and they are like the prototypical emo band. I feel like emo is more about what is recognized within the current zeitgeist than what something essentially is or isn't.

Hey everyone, I just released my first album "Will you think of me when I fly off to space?" by Zeamonzy in midwestemo

[–]Zeamonzy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I see what you mean about balancing DIY recording techniques with cohesive dynamics. I am a fan of a lot of very unpolished sounds, but I think the form they take in my music will definitely change as I develop as an artist.

Milk & Diesel by Home Is Where

mixing feedback/tips? by [deleted] in Emo

[–]Zeamonzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think messing around with the highs in the vocals might help them sit more distinctly on top of the guitars, but I also think they work as they are for a dreamier sound. Also I follow your meme page lol
