One of the greatest emo records of all time to be honest, straight from the nowhere land of New Hampshire. This is one I'd much rather recommend than explain, you'll just wanna put on your favorite headphones and doze off into the sounds of this incredible record. Highlights include: Pile! No Pile! Pile!, Can't Run Away, and Orange, with Blue Stripes.

A cursory google search informs me that this album received some critical acclaim which comes as a surprise to me because when I saw them on tour to support this record there may have been fewer than 20 people in the audience.
Regardless, I think this is one of the best albums to emerge from the emo revival era and has had more staying power in my library than even the best of The World Is a Beautiful Place, who were arguably the kings of the scene at the time.
Very likely this is no longer an interesting or deep cut because I have grown old and irrelevant but I am (almost) alone amongst my friends in my love of post 08 emo so I’ll continue to insist that this album is underrated (lol)

Need to build the re-rec feature (tomorow 😏) but until then I'm just following up to say that vivi and blaketheman1000's recommendations of Pinback get my cosign.
Proto Alex G meets Portishead (sort of?) but with occasional Elliot Smithy vocals and Midwest Emo guitars
Very sick. Listened to the self titled a bunch, now it's time for Blue Screen Life

Here are three! Wildly different vibes here, sorry for the whiplash
Hospital Bracelet is Midwest emo, kinda angry, less romantic yearning. More like yearning for better things.
wished bone is ethereal. I had super intense fever dreams to this album one time. pollinate me and spring time lover still have the power to stop me dead in my tracks.
Medium Build just gets it. I listened to this album for the first time on a road trip to see the eclipse this last year and my partner was asleep in my lap. It made me tear up. Love love love

That comfort of sleeping in a lil corner nook is unmatched. Unparalleled comfort, being right up against a wall.
