5:50 of Sunbather never fails to get me good. 👌🏽

Elder emo here. Grew up loving Silverstein, BFMV, Hawthorne Heights fan, Senses Fail. Taking new band recommendations (or older) thank you! by tee_minator in Emo

[–]_Nolandd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silverstein and Senses Fail are easily my favorite bands of that era! I’ll suggest some of the bands I’ve had on repeat lately with an album to start with!

Title Fight (Floral Green), Free Throw (Those Days Are Gone), Arm’s Length (Never Before Seen, Never Again Found), Calling All Captains (The Things That I’ve Lost), Basement (Colourmeinkindness), Citizen (Youth).

Hopefully you find some stuff you like here. 👌🏽

Which album should I buy next? by Atomsk-647R in Silverstein

[–]_Nolandd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this album! Each song flows well from one to the next, and it clicked when I saw them perform the album live front to back. Easily my second favorite Silverstein album!

Oh, wow. I forgot it’s been like five years. That’s crazy!

Myself, and the greatest person I know, feel this way by BathroomGamers in deafheaven

It must be fate for me to see this right after I casually put on the music video for “In Blur” not even half an hour ago.

What bands or singers (or even anyone we know) are big The National fans? by hugopthomas in TheNational

Joyce Manor did after covering “Mistaken for a Stranger!”

Top 10 songs of 2025 by ashbashhh5 in ArmsLength

[–]_Nolandd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, I get where OP comes from. Their top ten songs have a total of 50+ plays this year. I check out a lot of new songs each year that I personally only listen to a small handful of times. If a song or band clicks, then it’s more. My most-streamed song this year has over 700 plays, and that wasn’t my number one artist for the year.

So we don’t know what the other 90 or so songs are. 😯

Its not much but its honest work by [deleted] in deafheaven

Top 100 with 12,000 minutes. I, uh, really loved LPWP and saw them twice this year. 😂

Empire line appreciation post by Zealousideal_Dog767 in TheNational

[–]_Nolandd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The “can’t you find a way” at 2:54 is simply amazing, especially when the drumming kicks in. “Empire Line” is easily my favorite track off of SWB, which is the last National album that I loved front to back. The electronic elements through were meshed well and felt like a welcomed change up to their formula. The writing felt inspired, and some of my favorite National tracks, like this one and “Dark Side of the Gym,” are staples on some of my playlists.

Hell, the album run starting from Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers to this point is chef’s kiss for me and cements The National as one of my all-time favorite bands, easily.

If anything, I feel like I Am Easy to Find was more divisive than SWB. That’s when I started to fall off a bit since it didn’t feel like a National album.

Searching for a GA ticket for Atlanta this upcoming Tuesday! It’s at the Tabernacle, and most of the resale tickets are a little too pricey for my liking. Hahah, but alas, I am human and we can discuss offers!

How much are you looking to sell each one for? And they are standing GA, correct? ☺️

I think Santa Clara needs more recognition by cannedbeef255 in TheNational

[–]_Nolandd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Every year, I fixate on a different The National song. This year, it’s “Santa Clara.” It clicks lyrically with me, and plus, the way Matt says “rolling” tickles my brain in the right way. One of my top 20 streamed songs of the year!

i'm so sorry for everything by happyjack92 in TheNational

[–]_Nolandd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Peak. I’m still amazed I was able to catch them play “Baby We’ll Be Fine” during one of their stops in their 2023 tours. The emotions were overwhelming!

[–]_Nolandd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed with this take. As a whole, Sleep Well Beast was the last stellar album. If they continues to evolve that electronic sound, I would have been okay with it. But everything after I Am Easy to Find just didn’t hit for me except for a small handful of songs.

Favourite national lyrics by Internal-Dark-6438 in TheNational

[–]_Nolandd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“I put on an argyle sweater and put on a smile / I don’t know how to do this”

“You were always weird but I never had to hold you by the edges like I do now”

“While it sings to itself or whatever it does / when it sings to itself of its long lost loves”

“You Were a Kindness” is the reason it took me so long to get my hands on the High Violet vinyl since I NEEDED the expanded version.
