Emo Trembler

American Football Emo Indie Rock

For some reason, the south has always had a pretty solid amount of emo touched punk music. Maybe it’s the stifling manner of the fact that all of the creatives are open-minded in a part of the country that’s run by the closed minded. That’s what it feels like in places like Houston where the...More Please

Over the years, we’ve been lucky to see many of the bands that made up the genre return to releasing new music and touring regularly.

With Three Singles Out, American Football is Growing For the Better

American Football Emo

When American Football dropped their debut album, it wasn’t the biggest release of that year by far, but still one of the most notable ones. Over the years as the mythos and fandom around the album grew, no one ever thought that the band would return to touring or much less, releasing new music. When...More Please

New Screamo Featuring Members of Football, etc. & Rose Ette? Yes, Please

We often wonder, can you really trust an artist today that’s not playing in multiple projects? Down in Houston it seems that many or the musicians have the ability to link up and form new projects, so it’s not uncommon to see multiple bands made up of the same people intertwined. We heard kind of...More Please

Groundhog Day Eviscerates on Debut

New Music Reviews

Emo Groundhog Day Punk

For a long time now, we’ve seen traditional emo and punk criss cross lines where they’re essentially the same thing. Few bands can meld the two together where you can tell the difference, though Houston’s Groundhog Day seem to have figured out how to do just that.

Mineral Offers Up New Sounds on Second Track From New Book

Austin’s Mineral seemed to have epic myths spun about them in the years that they were absent from performing and even being seen in public together as a unit. Though the band’s two albums were a part of many of our youths, hearing anything new from the four piece is something that should be met...More Please

The Latest Single From Norway’s Spielbergs is Pretty Excellent

Norway trio Spielbergs got on our radar in April when they dropped their energetic and frenzied Distant Star E.P. In so many ways, they reminded us of nineties bands like Seam, Nation of Ulysses and even In On The Kill Taker era Fugazi. Now, less than a year later, the three piece is back with...More Please
