Reflections And Foresights

Hello hello, internet folks! A bit of an off kind of post, but still on topic for this blog. I've conjured a few ideas for future posts, but these will be more long term "projects" if that's the correct word.

Essentially, I'd like to really work more on playlist building. One such playlist will be the 2020 playlist which I plan to release at the end of the year, highlighting songs from each of my monthly playlists. A playlist made of playlists; playception! Included with that will be the entirety of each playlist generated this year. That one's around 150 songs at this point, which doesn't sound like a lot; and it isn't really. If I were to include every song from every album it'd just be a mess, but there will certainly be some goodies added in there as well.

Another idea of mine (props if you've made it through this wall of text and are still reading) will be genre specific playlists. It'll take time to build these considering a lot of songs can fit into multiple genres, and artists themselves covering multiple styles. Realistically, these playlists could range from EDM, Indie, Emo, Hardcore, Metal, and several sub genres. I don't want to go crazy with it but considering the amount of material I've collected and listened to over the years it's a bit boggling. It'll take some dedication for sure.

While you're here, I ought to at least put a song in the post. So here's one of my favorites from a truly legendary musician.

"Da Hell, Man?"

"Where am I? What's goin' on here?" Sheesh, what laziness on the blog front of things. I've stated in the past that I felt no need to rush any posts, and that since I do this for fun I would only post when I felt I had something worth posting. Not that I haven't had post worthy content, but I've been lacking in posts over here. I love to post on the FB page as I can quickly post a song or a music video, but still. I figured due to my absence here I might as well give general music updates (playlists), and new artists that I've been bopping frequently. One of the playlists that I've been updating the most frequently is the Swancore Inspired Bops Playlist. Tons of great artists take on the great Progressive Post-Hardcore sound that has been developed so well. Resilia is one that captures that sound nicely, and they've got some new content lately although they only have a few songs overall. Silver/Amnesty is an excellent one. One that I've r

February Roundup Vol. 2

Shame, shame, shame! I've been quite lazy on the blog front of things lately but I will always try to post my monthly playlists since I'm always looking for new music. FB posts are still at least a few times a week so there's that. Nevertheless, February had a lot of nice music for me, and it'd be a crime to not share some of em. Worst Party Ever- False Teeth This is that perfect sing along type of emo. I've definitely glanced over Worst Party Ever before and I'm glad I finally listened to them. False Teeth is really great but Road Trip is like, wow factor for me. It's vocally reminiscent of another band that I cannot remember but its right there, agh. Regardless WPE will be a frequent listen for me going forward. For The Win- Crash and Burn For The Win is not super unique per se, as you can draw a lot of influences but that's not to say the music is bad. Crash and Burn is a nice feelsy and vocally wholesome song but I cannot help but internally laugh

November Round Up

Damn I'm late Hey y'all! It's roundup time. Apologies in advance as this'll be a fairly quick post but there's still been a nice rotation of songs this month. Let's jump right into things! Driveways- October Forever (album) Where do I start with this one? Driveways has found a way to blend multiple styles within their own style and make it sound superb. You have elements of pop punk, emo, R&B, and easycore. Songs like Contours and Fifteen Over Five sound like Neck Deep. October Forever sounds just like an A Day To Remember song. Contradictions & Perennials have some nice guitar work and lyrical punch like Tiny Moving Parts. It's hard to not really just love how well they've blended it all together. If you're into the R&B aspect more Sleep Paralysis is also really well put together. Fu Manchu- Evil Eye I'm usually not a big fan of the droning sounds of stoner rock, but Fu Manchu has just the right amount of ene
