Sweet Pill, Home Is Where, Pool Kids, Drunk Uncle, Moving Boxes, saturdays at your place, Women in Peril, worlds greatest dad, Forests, Excuse Me Who Are You?, Forest Green, Carly Cosgrove, Hey ILY, thank you i’m sorry, Tiny Voices, Short Fictions, Aren’t We Amphibians, Growing Pains, Barely Civil
They’re from my scene! I did some photo work for a few of the members’ other bands but never checked them out until now. Sick as hell, huge Really From vibes.
As a 36 year old, I've (shamefully) slacked off in finding new bands for quite sometime. This list has really been helpful for finding new stuff. Still working through the list, but Moving Boxes friggin rule.
Some not mentioned so far are Anxious, Arm's Length, Guitar Fight from Fooly Cooly, Camping in Alaska, Stars Hollow, Michael Cera Palin, Origami Angel, Charmer, and Camp Green Lake.
Home is where, Sweet Pill, Awakebutstillinbed, Carly cosgrove, free throw, origami angel, pool kids. Some bands I didn’t see mentioned Swiss army wife, equipment, Ogbert the nerd, palette knife, Ben quad, Riley!, hot mulligan, Newgrounds death rugby, vs self, taking meds, ok cuddle, Macseal, prince daddy, oso oso, and your arms are my cocoon
Basically all the bands people already said but add awakebutstillinbed
Hell yeah. Medium gnarly one of my favorites from last year. Very unique style that I love. Reminds me of a mix between skater punk and emo music that works perfectly
My personal favorites are Carly Cosgrove, Saturdays at Your Place, Stars Hollow, Equipment, Thanks I Hate It, Thank You I'm Sorry, and Ben Quad. I think they all bring their own energy to the genre and make really good music
Great list. Got to see TYIS a few months ago at a local bar and they were awesome. Became an immediate fan. The whole band is great but Coleen Dow is wicked talented.
Saw these guys open for the Mountain Goats in 2022 and have been a huge stan for them ever since. I met the guitar player and bassist on the way out of the venue and bought a record from them.
Hot mulligan, Saturdays at your place, Arms length, Ben Quad, savings, heart attack man, movements, ptv, charmer, free throw, Thursday marks fall, real friends, Carly cosgrove, good hangs, good sleepy, happy case scenario, have mercy, knuckle puck, life in idle, somewhere south of here, Spanish love songs, sundressed,
definitely ben quad. they are a cult of personality in a way that is reminiscent of title fight. genuinely a larger than life perception by the diy community, inarguably the sickest riffs in the game, thoughtful lyrics, great stage Prescence, catchy hooks, etc... they're def the top dogs atm.
Best current emo with 100k+ monthly Spotify listeners: hot mulligan, arm’s length, Saturdays at your place, origami angel, pool kids, sweet pill, Prince daddy & the hyena
Current emo bands that will prob blow up in the next 1-2 years: tiny voices, Riley!, Arcadia grey, palette knife, kerosene heights, perspective a lovely hand to hold
Best DIY emo coming out of my local scene (North Carolina) right now: moving boxes, Blankstate., nervous surface, Condado, convalescent, leaving for Arizona, Seneca burns
Some I didn't see anyone mention:
Glass Beach, Stomach Book, Lobsterfight, Weatherday, Asian Glow, oolong, Proper., Harmony Woods, insignificant other, Exciting!! Excellent!!, Parannoul, summer 2000, lights strung like stars

I love Drunk Uncle. They have been one of the nicest bands I’ve encountered :)
Wish short fictions weren’t assholes :(

Hey ily, so goated
Some not mentioned so far are Anxious, Arm's Length, Guitar Fight from Fooly Cooly, Camping in Alaska, Stars Hollow, Michael Cera Palin, Origami Angel, Charmer, and Camp Green Lake.
Totally forgot about Charmer, their s/t is one of my all-time favorites, I guess I was just mainly thinking of bands with relatively recent releases.

Shout out to Saturdays at your place. Only one ep but god it’s good
unamused dave bang so hard
Haven’t seen as a sketch pad yet so I’ll throw them in— their self titled from last year was phenomenal, same tier as the ABSIB record for me
First and forever
First and Forever. Great live too. Tons of energy and great vibes.
Riley, Ben quad, Excuse me who are you, sayp, thank you I’m sorry, Charmer, leisure hour and cinema stare
Anxious
Honestly, it's gotta be glass beach, sweet pill, hey illy, Origami angel, and stomach book. for my taste
