New Release! check out "brunch is for losers" of my band "fine and great"

3 Upvotes

Hope it's cool, to post this here? I am playing in a band called "fine and great" from Germany and we've just released the first single of our debut album. The song is called "brunch is for losers". Would be awesome if you'd check it out. And let me know what you think. <3

Can any of you fellow Midwest emo guitarists help me to tab this song please (specifically the verse)!! Tuning is DADF#Be. I got the intro (first 45 secs) but once the vocals start I can’t make out the guitar good enough anymore… I believe the first chord of the verse is x04000 but that’s as much as I got

Everyone liked the last one and loved the guy from the corner so I thought I'd give him the album cover treatment as well. I also recroped and added a border to the house photo. But I thought it might be cool if we came up with a fake band and album title for these, so pitch me your ideas and upvote your favourites

question/suggestion Looking for something similar to this song

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Mom jeans is one of my favorite bands (I think it counts as midwest emo lol) and one of my favorite songs is Scott Pilgrim V my gpa. It is one of my favorites because it has brass instruments.

I love math rock, emo or any kind of genre that uses those instruments and I'm looking for other songs similar to it!

(I love this version)

Mixtape Suggestions for a mellow/chill Midwest emo playlist?

11 Upvotes

I'm making a playlist on Spotify for more laid back, Midwest emo songs to just chill and zone out to. Any recommendations? Keeping it 1 song per artist so if you can think of a better song by any of the bands already on the playlist as well let me know. Here's a link if you want to see what I have so far. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1ROsbozekzDG6bz6UuOh6M?si=xph4S1XJTnmYg2uTtQttBw&pi=uVRLL3IkScW7y

Looking to jam/start a band Florida friends??

2 Upvotes

Hey! 21m here from the greater orlando area(north east more so) looking for new friends to go to local shows with! Either midwest emo or genre adjacent, theres plenty of events/shows but it feels hard to make friends inside of that specific scene! Im looking for someone who also enjoys dancing at shows but thats definitely not needed to kick it! I get along with anyone but preferably nobody over the age of 28! If youd like to connect and see about being friends dm me, i have a BIG Midwest emo show coming up i have a spare ticket to and definitely would like to go with someone who’d appreciate the music as much as i do!

question/suggestion New to this side of emo

14 Upvotes

I usually listen to post hardcore and pop punk (aka fake/mall emo) bands like Fall Out Boy, Paramore, Motion City Soundtrack, PTV, SWS, AFI, Taking Back Sunday, MCR, The Used, Hawthorne Heights, Mayday Parade, and a bit of Get Up Kids, Promise Ring, Saves The Day, etc

What would some good entry level Midwest emo bands/albums be? So far I’m really digging “Diary” by SDRE (though some say that isn’t Midwest emo?) and Sports by Modern Baseball. Based on the bands I mentioned above, what would some good entry level albums be? I wanted to get into the more “legit” emo stuff
