Plan Infiltration (2011)


Japanese emo guys. Really swell band, mostly sound like some of the other emo bands I'm fond of, including Algernon Cadwallader and Snowing. This album is a compilation of some tracks recorded in 2005 and some older singles and split tracks. Give it a listen here.

Malegoat is one of the most talented bands from Japan, if not everywhere. We sold several imports of their latest full length "To Face the Music", and we toured with them in Japan. Now we have a handful of copies of their early work, newly collected and issued for the first time on one CD from the wonderful Waterslide Records out of Japan.

Nothing Was Missing, Except Me (2010)


The start and end of it all. Much like other emo bands, Hightide Hotel followed the tried and true formula of releasing a demo, some singles, and one LP. Nothing Was Missing surely does not disappoint, with some great new material and a few rerecords from their demo. It's sad to see these guys go, but at least they left us with a nice album to remember them by.


I can’t wrap my mind around where you find time to screen-print valentines between five classes, but I’ve kept mine tucked underneath pamphlets about loneliness and suicide prevention by my bedside.

The Ugly Organ (2003)


If at first you don't succeed
you gotta recreate your misery
young artists have gotta starve
Try, and fail, and try again
the comforts of repetition
Keep churning out those hits

Tigers Jaw (2008)


I think you guys know the drill with emo that I like at this point. This time around, you might actually know who these guys are however. On an unrelated note, that looks like one hell of a pizza.


the worst part of my existence
is you can call whenever
but I can't wait forever

Some Kind of Cadwallader (2008)



A very DIY emo band. If you love Snowing, you'll probably like these guys.



I bought you a corsage
And pinned a flower on my jacket,
Because this night means a lot to me.
Then you went
And spilled punch
All on my tuxedo shirt.
White as a cloud
And now i'm screaming out loud.
OH MAN, IT'S TAKING ME OVER
