back on my bullshit

I really like emo music in concept because there's a lot of meaning to just up-front expressing one's deep, painful emotions; I just wish fewer people's deep emotions were about just breaking up with someone

If you want emo albums and songs not about breakups try the greatest generation by the wonder years (about feeling aimless as a young adult, regret), home like noplace is there by the hotelier (deals with themes of suicide and mental health), summer death by marrietta (while it is about heartbreak, the end of the relationship is used to explore themes of getting older, self destructive behavior, and loss of childhood/youth), sleep patterns by merchant ships (about a dark dream the singer had). Also kings park by la dispute is more hadcore than emo but has some very direct and dark lyrics (about classicsm, youth violence, death).

it bothers me that you often don't really hear about people having a "favorite album" the way they might have a favorite movie or favorite video game

fuck it. reblog this and tell me in the tags what your favorite album is

i love discovering new music. but there's actually nothing like rediscovering old music. like, hello me from 5, 10, 15 years ago. so good to see you. same heart, i see. god, i love you.
