ITT: Music you know is shit but end up listening to it anyway

is this really the heralded future of emo?

>>74700394
yep.

>>74700454
why?
i'm not opposed to it nor am i promoting it but why is it the big new thing for emo music? i think it might be because emo like the last time it got big has been slowly absorbed into other genres again and now you have a fusion genre thats more popular than the original new surge bands were because it's binded with trap, the most popular genre at the moment for popular music

>>74700476
you're pretty much exactly right
p4k and other numedia for music are pushing it because "trap" is the sound of the decade and what kids identify with and those outlets know appeal to kids is the way to get the clicks. Lil Peep does emo (music for sad kids) over trap beats (the most popular sound of the decade) so it's a pretty clear connection why people say its the future of emo.

the other GBC members are all doing pretty interesting stuff, especially wicca phase springs eternal who was in actual emo bands, but peep is just the biggest character with the poppiest most accessible music.

I see the objective badness and cringeness in him but for some reason I love him, its like 10 year old me and 17 year old me went into a lab and made a weird science esq rapper/singer.

this degenerate has nothing to do with emo and emo is doing pretty fine without him

theres tons of different emo stuff out there at the moment, it doesn't really need a future or saving or anything like that

could you rec me some recent emo releases? all i've listened to this year was the new chinese football release and pictures of vernon which i thought was mediocre but not bad

>>74700597
agree but he is the "heralded" future. most music journalists are pushing him for the "we get you gen z!" factor.

my 14 year old brother asked me if i knew what pitchfork was, and said he found them through their come over when you're sober review

Reminder that its the same guy making these threads.

don't know why or how to put this into words but this just sounds kind of sad to me :(

>>74700640

>>74700571
I feel trashy when I listen to him but I can't stop listening

>>74700605
