I hope hellogoodbye comes out with some good stuff soon. That 'when we first met' ep was something I really liked. I wouldn't mind if they steered away from that chilled out sound they got going on at the moment, but I'll like it regardless. max bemis can suck it. two tongues is so god drat fruity/bad.

As a long time HG fan it saddens me how little this band has produced in the last 5-6 years. I miss the days when Forrest would crank out all these awesome FruityLoops songs and remixes. I feel that's when they were at their best. I feel like once the brought in real drums into the recordings, it became this weird mix. I do like the recent 'when we first met' song though but it sounds like a different band (Ra Ra Riot comes to mind).

Here's what I've been liking this past year or so. Let me know if you can recommend similar. Feel free to make fun of me, this is the scenecore thread after all. Heartsounds - Until We Surrender http://www.myspace.com/heartsoundsband http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyB7Ln25CyM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUj76IAUdN4 Nice male/female vocal combos and driving pop punk tunes. I feel like this album is perfectly produced too. Every song is pretty much the same. Fact - In the Blink of any Eye http://www.myspace.com/factjapan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nr23RWMRnpM Japanese hyper technical pop-punk/post-hardcore/whatever. It's like a metal band that decided to go a poppier route. Feels similar to FYS and SYG and reminds me of older Boys Night Out at times. Overall, a really solid album. Polar Bear Club - Chasing Hamburg http://www.myspace.com/polarbearclub http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbMmU4LA3cs This took a few listens to grow on me, but it's one of my favorite albums from the past year. Excellent punk rock with strong hooks. The Forecast http://www.myspace.com/theforecast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnWN_cKChzY I'm a sucker for the male/female vocal combo. I feel this is their best album yet. Closure in Moscow - First Temple http://www.myspace.com/closureinmoscow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi08y-A39S0 Very solid musicianship and strong vocals in the same vein as the Mars Volta. Nice to hear a guy who can actually sing. The first 5 songs on the album are very strong. Emery - In Shallow Seas We Sail http://www.myspace.com/emery http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zIQuhbOa_A Finally, I feel Emery is back with something good. That EP they released in 2008 was excellent and I was glad to see this album going in that same direction. I didn't really care for their 2nd and 3rd full lengths. Helen Earth Band - Our Own Ghost City http://www.myspace.com/helenearthband http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ8xKJyseuc Definitely not Scenecore in any way, but I want to talk about them. Noodly, angular, emo (think late 90's emo) music similar to bands like No Knife and Mock Orange. Features ex-Counterfit members. I also really liked the new releases by the Swellers, FYS, Half Hearted Hero, Dangerous Summer (guilty pleasure), Jonny Craig, Ken Yoyokama (Hi Standard), Love Hate Hero (not as good as White Lies though), MCS, Of Mice & Men, We Came as Romans, Over Stars and Gutters, Burden of a Day, Scale the Summit, Teenage Bottlerocket, Wonder Years, and Transit. lostatsea fucked around with this message at 22:11 on May 16, 2010 |

"Between the Heart and the Synapse" is probably one of my favorite records ever. Anyone else here like 'em? Without a doubt my favorite band. Apparently when they got back together to play Skatefest earlier this month they were asked about a possible reunion tour and new album and all they could say was "wait and see". Just the fact that they didn't immediately dismiss the talk gives me hope  Also apparently they are releasing a DVD of their "final" show at Lupos from two years ago sometime late this summer. edit: lostatsea posted:Emery - In Shallow Seas We Sail I've been listening to In Shallow Seas We Sail pretty much non stop for the past week. I wasn't really into it at first but there really isn't anything to not love about this album. Really good comeback from the disappointment of "I Am Only A Man".

Make sure you check out their 2008 EP "While Broken Hearts Prevail". I think they re-recorded one of the EP songs and reused another for the 2009 full length.

I've been a huge fan of the Forecast for a while. "Late Night Conversations" was good, "In the Shadow of Two Gunmen" was great. I didn't like the song they put on their myspace when they released the digital EP, but the songs I've heard from the new one are loving awesome and I definitely need to get this album. Also, they're a really great live band and really fun, down-to-earth guys (and girl!).

Attack Attack! (you know, the crabcore originators) just posted a new song on their MySpace, "Renob, Nevada" - still not a fan, but it definitely wasn't as bad as I expected: http://www.myspace.com/attackattack Seems like it was a good thing they kicked out their previous screamer (god, I hate that term).

It is too bad that Lydia is calling it quits after their summer album/tour. On a totally unrelated note I have nothing but disdain for this upcoming Craig Owens/Pete Wentz project. I guess Thomas Erak from The Fall of Troy is rumored to be involved too.

While I guess there's a reason he was kicked out of Chiodos, I'm optimistic about his new project.

I loved Redeemer and liked The Anti Mother as well, and the first track I've heard from their new CD is awesome. One thing I like about the band is that even though they might be Christian, they don't really write Christian music - it just happens to be their religion, but their music doesn't necessarily reflect that. Sure, I guess some of their lyrics could be read that way, but it isn't too obvious or pandering. Plus, they seem to be pretty chill and have a nice sense of humor - they're just doing their thing without paying attention to what's popular in the scene right now. I feel a lot better supporting these guys than most other bands in their genre. Eight Is Legend fucked around with this message at 13:00 on May 19, 2010 |

For the people talking about Craig Owens: i'm pretty sure you'll have checked out the EP of the side project he had with Jonny Craig. just in case, their name is "isles and glaciers". 3/4 of their 7 songs are pretty rad.

I really hated Brand New's first album the first time I heard it, but now after listening to their three other records religiously, I actually kind of enjoy Your Favourite Weapon. Goes well if you listen to it straight after Daisy, actually. On an unrelated note, I'm wondering whether I should listen to Chase This Light by Jimmy Eat World. Clarity and Bleed American are two of my favourite albums but Futures left me feeling cold and I'm not sure whether I should bother with them any more.
