American Football - American Football
80

Some of the prettiest guitars put to record

Perspective, a lovely hand to hold - Autonomy
60

Not bad, but outside of Comeuppance I don't find many of the tracks stick out to me personally

Nana Grizol - Ursa Minor
85

Beautiful heart felt album without a single weak link. Seriously underrated record.

Macseal - Macseal EP
75

Macseal came swinging with their first EP with catchy instrumentals and 6 solid songs. Cats is still one of the catchier songs in the genre

Skatune Network - Pick It the Fuck Up 2
60

A fun set of covers brought down by a so so mix that doesn't really let any of the instrumentals shine

Origami Angel - The Brightest Days
64

A solid outing that doesn't quite shine too brightly compared to the previous releases, but is still a solid listen.
The main thing holding this album back for me is the production is just too polished for my liking

Origami Angel - Gami Gang
77

51 minutes of Origami Angel, what's not to like?

Origami Angel - Quiet Hours
64

A much quieter, slow incarnation of Origami Angel. Interesting to see how their music evolved from this EP to the upbeat fast sound they'd be best known for

Glocca Morra - Just Married
76

One of the most iconic records of the emo revival, when it hits, it absolutely hits, and when it doesn't? Nah it still hits pretty damn well.

The Hotelier - It Never Goes Out [Reissue]
78

It's very easy to see how The Hotelier went from this to one of the best emo albums of all time.

Walter Etc. - Chaparral
58

I don't have much to say about it, a decent EP.

Perspective, a lovely hand to hold - Play Pretend
75

A solid 4 song EP without any weak links.

Gender Roles - Prang
80

Ignoring whatever it was that happened resulting in two of the band distancing themselves from the third member, this is a damn good album with non stop hits.
We will likely never know what the actions of this member were, but given circumstances I think it's best that Gender Roles fades away. Go support Really Big Really Clever if you enjoy this record, it's the band consisting of two of Gender Roles former members.

Oso Oso - Real Stories of True People, Who Kind of Looked Like Monsters...
65

A solid debut album that has some iconic indie emo tracks. This Must Be My Exit is one of the better songs in this genre honestly.

Bears In Trees - and everybody else smiled back
62

A solid album which is a very easy listen, just nothing that stands out too much

Bears In Trees - How to Build an Ocean: Instructions
76

Dunno how Bears in Trees flew by me for so long, this is great.

Riley! - Keep Your Cool
80

Not every track hits for me personally, but the ones that do really do. Insanely solid instrumentals on display here.

Update: Haven't been able to stop listening to this album, scores going up from 67.

Macseal - Yeah, No, I Know
75

Yeah, No, I Know, this has some damn good riffs. Solid EP

Just Friends - Rock 2 the Rhythm
58

It's alright, nothing stands out too much besides Welcome Mats and the killer horn sections

Just Friends - Gusher
58

A little more his or miss than their previous outings for me personally, but still some fun vibes to be had.
