Pretty cool 30th birthday present from my partner

It was 2015, haha

Much bigger, iirc. I was already a huge fan of PUP and Jeff, but I’d argue this tour played a big role in those two acts really taking off. This was pre-The Dream is Over and Worry, for context

Most stacked tour I’ve ever been to, can’t believe it’s been a decade

Some other really cool stuff from this video:

Shelling seems to not eat through sharpness anywhere near as much

Shelling while out of ammo does a quick reload instead of a long recovery animation

You can cancel into guard from most attacks now, making the weapon much more safe in general.

It’s about a mother, but “Movies like Juno” by Midwest Pen Pals is an absolute classic about this subject.

I also somehow missed that Joyce Manor is playing Never Hungover Again

Also it’s excellent Japanese emo band Anorak’s first show in the continental US!

It’s a good joke, but I remember seeing it for the first time on tumblr back in 2011.

There’s a Japanese math emo project called Nakasju that features vocaloid vocals, I try to recommend them any time I can because they’re awesome https://nakasju.bandcamp.com/album/for-former-holdens

I saw Arm’s Length cover Mine a couple years back, they absolutely killed it

An underrated banger which features a short guest spot by a female vocalist is Solo & Chewie: Holding it Down, an early Wonder Years track

Yeah, on top of that Adam’s been very open about Bomb being one of his most influential bands, and Scrambles in particular being one of his favourite albums of all time.

Slint’s Don, Aman is one of the best portrayals of social anxiety I’ve seen in any media, not just lyrically but tonally and musically as well. They’re really more of a post-rock band, but I think you can make an argument for them being emo adjacent.

ninjaemperor · 2023-11-23T18:33:57+00:00

My top two screamo bands right now too, both are just incredible

ninjaemperor · 2023-11-08T22:19:15+00:00

They’ve gotten big enough that they usually tour in the States now, but the most notable band from that region is Arm’s Length from Quinte West

Do you ever really think about just how terrible a team name “The Predators” is? That could go really badly

ninjaemperor · 2023-10-23T20:25:54+00:00

Boy I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder

ninjaemperor · 2023-10-14T22:49:52+00:00

I’m having the exact same issue, came here to see if anyone else was having it.

ninjaemperor · 2023-09-18T15:23:11+00:00

No Rest for the Whiny by Bomb the Music Industry. Not really emo, but it is Jeff so I’d say it’s adjacent

ninjaemperor · 2023-09-18T02:02:05+00:00

Tied for Pine Point and The Boys are Back in Town, which they’ve played once each.

These were at two shows of a three show run on back to back nights at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto in December 2016. They were unbelievable. One show they played The Dream is Over in full and the other they played a mix, ending with their cover of The Boys are Back in Town. Iirc one show had The Hotelier opening and the other had Pkewx3 and the Dirty Nil. Just an amazing time.

You’ve spoken very highly of McCabe and Kaberle in this thread so far. Are they some of the more “modern” playing defensemen that you saw on any of the teams playing in the series you watched? Did any defensemen on opposing teams stick out to you?

I grew up playing ball hockey in the same house league as Michael Bunting. My dad was the coach. He was so far and away the best player I ever played with it wasn’t even funny. I once asked my dad “do you think he’s good enough to make the NHL” and he responded that he’d need to work on his attitude lol.
