"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 really loved is Adventurer; they just released an album that's definitely worth checking out. Solstice brings some old school The Used sounding vocals with that sweet symphonic progressive sound that a lot of these bands nail. Animal Jam is another great one, check them out as well!


I neglected to post a roundup for April, and there was a lot of music worth sharing. Origami Angel released a new album; if you go back to last year you'll see I did an album review on their last release (they're that good, I've only done a couple actual reviews on here). Kaonashi is some sick ass Philly Hardcore (self described as Emo Mathcore); and their newest album brings so much heat and makes me hyped for live shows again. 


Needless to say there's a shit load of music always releasing, and so many artists that deserve to have their works listened to. I think I'll post here sporadically in the future but for now the move is to keep making playlists (may post on here), reviews if I ever feel the ambition on certain albums, and continuing to post on the FB page. Thanks for checking the blog and reading this wall of text. This obviously isn't the last post here but like I prefaced this post with, I'll only post when I have something worth posting here.


Peace!

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...

January Roundup Vol. 2

  Here we are again. Another year, another month, another roundup. I've got high hopes for music in 2021 and hopefully we will see some return of live music and being able to see artists we like live in person. Anyways let's get into Volume 2 of my monthly playlists! Vilano- Greetings! Vilano is really cool and a new listen for me. They bring back that mid 2000's pop punk sound that's so addicting to me. Greetings starts off in a similar way to Veara's My B-Side Life then branches off into its own thing. There's some really good drumming in both songs as well which also made me correlate the two. Another song I've been digging is Who We Are (feat. Fronzilla). It's a completely different sound but it's pretty much just a Myka Relocate song with Fronz, which in all honestly is really good. Juneva- If You're Jezebel, Then I'm Bill Murray If you've read through enough of my posts, you know how I feel about post-hardcore. Juneva only had 2 EPs...

A Youthful Summer

A Youthful Summer There's something about certain songs or artists that give feelings of nostalgia or just plain bliss. A Youthful Summer is a playlist built around those long summer days throughout the 2010's. I suppose the aesthetic and nostalgia aspects would be geared towards folks that grew up on some of the music on this playlist. Regardless I feel there are a lot of good musicians being represented here, I hope you enjoy! I like to touch on all of the genres that I enjoy, but this playlist is narrowed down to a few main genres. Pop-punk is easily the most prevalent but realistically the genre appeals to a lot of younger folks. Not a bad aspect by any means but I like the nostalgia the genre evokes.  In terms of overall influence I think the cake goes to A Day To Remember. Their music made "heavier" sounds more accessible to a wide audience. That's where the bit of easycore comes in. Belmont and Lonely Avenue are 2 slightly newer arti...
