Short Stories About Their Distance
Posted 9 years agoHere's a band shout out to Short Stories About Their Distance. Hailing from Bloomington/Normal, Illinois their line up consists of two members from Gas Up Yr Hearse, Lucero and Pat, and the other two, Audrey and Andrew, from unknown origins. Before it was just Pat, with a male vocalist (don't know who it was), but now put Lucero who screams for GU!YH to do clean vocals and it's a sound that is breath taking and makes you move. This is certainly one of those gems to come out of the Midwest emo scene. Below are links to their bandcamp, Facebook and their split with The Truth About Dreaming.

Metalcore with Emo influences?
Posted 9 years agoI turned Adam onto Sunny Day Real Estate, and when we decided to form a band together, I thought it'd be cool to play heavy like Converge did but also to mix in what I loved about the Diary album as well. That's where my faux-English accent comes from on some of those early, early recordings. -Stephen Brodsky, Cave In, Burning Fight pg. 169-170
New Sheriff in Charge
Posted 10 years agoAlright, here's the dealio. Both the previous owners of this page are gone. One of them closed their account and it's unknown to why he did it. He never moderated or kept up the page anyway so that's that. The, I should say the "real" owner of the page plus moderator, resigned for reasons I can't mention as well as closed their account. So without further adieu, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, emos and emas, I give to you the new owner of the page.
I will be your Dear Leader in the fight to preserve the Emo subgenre of Hardcore punk from the wretched revisionists who look like bad rip offs of Goths, will keep you updated on new bands, bands from before you were even born or were just too young to see, shows and new material coming out of contemporary Emo bands across the States and of the world.
In closing, I will be taking requests for moderators of this page. If you are interested in helping run this page I'll consider your proposal.
And just for fun I'll appoint positions for four distinct districts of people in the United States who are responsible for gathering information on the scene in their region. Note, this doesn't make you moderator.
The districts are: West, Midwest, Northeast and South
I'll also appoint positions for people outside the United States to report as well. This includes Asia, Europe, Latin America, and Africa.
Hope to make this page a fun and interesting experience for you guys and girls. I also welcome those who just recently watched the Emofurs page. Please fill free to engage in dialogue and ask questions.

Jawbreaker's Blake Schwarzenbach interview
Posted 11 years agoBlake Schwarzenbach on Jawbreaker’s Bivouac and Chesterfield King
The 20th anniversary reissues of Jawbreaker’s Bivouac LP and Chesterfield King EP come out tomorrow. On the heels of our previous dialogue about the remastered vinyl, Jawbreaker’s drummer and Blackball Records honcho Adam Pfahler set me up with singer/guitarist Blake Schwarzenbach, who was kind enough to discuss the albums, revisit the time period, and hash over old cover songs. And once again, Adam provided vintage Polaroids.
MW: In the new reissues, “Shield Your Eyes” gets another turn and “Equalized” is revealed to be overrated. What about Bivouac and Chesterfield King deserves a new life? What should be taken with a grain of salt?
BS: From a strictly archival standpoint, it’s great just to hear the bass in all its glory. I think it’s the non-hits that really stand out for me – the dense layering and experimentation, the drama of the breakdowns, the soundtrack moments that round out the bigger numbers. “Parabola” into “Bivouac” seems to me like the home we were seeking in the odyssey of the record.
MW: Does it pain you all when you revisit your old vocals? Not because it sounds bad or anything but because of the damage you were doing to your vocal chords…
BS: It’s like hearing a little monster – an amalgamation of all that it loved: Mike Ness, Bob Mould, Dave Pirner, Evan Dando, Sinead O’Connor, Guy Picciotto. Yes, it does pain me, and pleasure me – the steadfast affinity to these coordinates. But that’s kind of the thing with Jawbreaker – especially in this nascent point in our development – it was like this unstoppable creature that loved so many things and felt itself to be ugly and with a too-large beak. Fortunately, that Phoenix-like spirit always seems to prevail in the final seconds, through comedy, tragedy, and a fierce assertion of its right to exist.
MW: And what about dusting off your lyrics? Many songs seemed extra autobiographical during this period, so I wonder what you recall as you revisit them. Is it like therapy at all?
BS: Nothing was inadmissible, and I think the more successful moments come from a kind of direct transcription of daily events into a larger sense of pathology. It’s a strange kind of therapy, because now you are the auditor and the patient is a permanently arrested younger you. I feel awkward about the snapshot, but also glad that the creature dared to pose at all.
MW: Lance Hahn once told me that he tried to write a song a day. At the time, was songwriting something you’d discuss about with your colleagues or was it something more private? Was it like homework for you or were you on a creative roll?
BS: It was a thing Lance and I talked about a lot. I remember Chris and Adam and Lance and I would just hang out and play records, and Lance always would break out these really surprising records. As would Chris and Adam. We all had our hard rock, pop, rap, dance, film score and punk troves to draw from. On a good night it would be a totally righteous jukebox. And we would talk, at length, about what made these things so great. And then I think we would take these ideas into our work – mostly just wage work to carry us to practice and rent – but they would percolate, get infused with on-the-job grudges, and then materialize into these musical expressions.
MW: In addition to “You Don’t Know” and “Pack It Up” on the Chesterfield King EP, there were versions of songs by the Furs, Vapors, Misfits, and REM. Are there other covers that Jawbreaker used to do that I’m forgetting? Anything that never got recorded? (I loved forgetters’ live version of the Human League’s “Seconds,” by the way…)
BS: We were doing “Just What I Needed” (The Cars) on tour for a time. And in our earliest days we did Gun Club’s “Fire of Love.”
MW: Do you look forward to the reissue of 24-Hour Revenge Therapy?
BS: I do. I’m pro-catalog.

Posted 11 years agoTexas Is The Reason announce first North American tour in 15 years
[Source]: http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/.....ur_in_15_years
Texas Is The Reason have announced that, for the first time since their 1997 disbandment, they will tour. The band recently played Revelation Records' 25th Anniversary Festival in New York and say that is only the beginning of a proper end for the band.
"When we first agreed to play the New York leg of Revelation 25 back in July, it was pretty clear to us that if we were going to do this again, we were going to finally tie up all of the loose ends that have nagged us for so long," explains guitarist Norman Brannon [in a statement from the band]. "Part of that meant going back into the studio to record the songs we never had a chance to make real, but part of that also meant to go out and say thank you to all of the people who have kept this band alive for so long. These shows are the first part of that thank-you...
"We're gonna go out there and play these shows like they're our last shows ever, because for all these cities, they are. There are some other places we need to visit, and we'll get around to that, but this is the first big step towards our last steps. This time, we're going to finish it right."
The dates are as follows:
1/6 Chicago, IL
House of Blues (Revelation 25 w/ special guests: Into Another, Sense Field, and Popeye)
2/15 Washington D.C.
The Black Cat
2/16 Philadelphia, PA
Union Transfer
2/17 Boston, MA
Paradise
3/8 Toronto, CAN
Lee's Palace
3/9 Atlanta, GA
The Masquerade
3/29 San Francisco, CA
Bimbo's 365
3/30 Los Angeles, CA
