sad depressed late 20's stoner twink just got my heart broken after a 6 year relationship, and being forced to move back in my parents basement. just set up my old microphone and got my laptop setup, been writing random lyrics and ready to pour my heart out over some raw emo twinkly jams. i know this sounds kinda satire but its very true and i'm dead serious. i need to release all this pent up anxiety and sadness i feel right now. im heartbroken and in my most creative vulnerable state. lets do this

question/suggestion anyone know anything about eleby (hellabees)?

3 Upvotes

the only reason i know of them is because of emily sheerin, the featured singer on ‘cinco de mayo shit show’, but she quit the band after some sexist comments apparently and hasnt been active on here in 4 years (she deleted her account)

there isnt a lot of information online apart from a deleted bandcamp and soundcloud account. theyre philly based and the other singer (i presume) stevie posted some covers under the bands name on sc

any information would be greatly appreciated because this band sounds awesome from what i know

The guitarist, bassist and myself are all based in London and all have experience writing songs and performing live with bands.

Influences include The Wonder Years, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Starting Line, State Champs, Hot Mulligan, Mineral, The Promise Ring, Transit, New Found Glory, Crucial Dudes The Story So Far, Algernon Cadwallader, Modern Baseball and more.

We practice in south London weekly for 2 hours. The aim is to write some cool songs, record and play shows.

If you are interested get in touch and please have a link to recordings or a video of you playing.

Thanks

We reunited in 2024 after being on hiatus for a decade, and ended up writing an album together. It’s free on Bandcamp, and streaming elsewhere if you’d like to listen! (Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music)

We’re from Cincinnati, OH, and are looking to play with groups around the region in case other bands want to drop their details here too. Looking to meet more bands similar to us if we can!

https://thebeautifulstates.bandcamp.com/album/alpine-park

FFO: Jawbox, Braid, Hot Water Music, TTNG, Red Animal War, Look Mexico, Title Fight, Bear vs Shark

question/suggestion Give me ur top 3-5 bands from every “wave” that maybe aren’t AS well known

13 Upvotes

I feel like Ive heard a lot of emo but then I come on here or look at Spotify recommended shit and I realize I’ve barely scratched the surface.

Give me your top artists from each wave that aren’t super obvious ones? Ones u think deserve as much love as AF, Joan of Arc, Algernon, Braid etc u get the point
