I've been listening to a lot of Wavelets lately. Also, if Spraynard counts, would you put Sundials in this camp, as well?

Oh and shit. I just saw this band Prawn at The Fest that was fucking awesome. Has anyone heard them?

Prawns album You Can't Just Leave It All is one of the few records in this slightly vague genre that I love. Superb album.

[spaghettti]

Ships is great too

[troubledbyinsects]

False Institutions is my favorite by Prawn.

[rawesome]

Awesome, so what I'm hearing is get all the Prawn, then?

[spaghettti]

yes.

Wish there were some newer bands that took more from stuff like elliott (u.s. songs / false cathedrals era)... most of the emo revival was super cool when it first came out..but now .. a lot of it sounds the same and uninspiring.

Elliott is magnificient. I am listening to Drive on to Me right no.

On another note, You Blew It! is good and I want so badly to like Empire! Empire! but god, the vocals...

[danbren]

Prawn for sure

[JonThomas]

You blew it!
Algernon Cadwallader (R.I.P.)
Joyce Manor
Girl Scouts
Snowing
Empire! Empire!

[Coloso]

(assuming OP means just like Midwestern emo stuff and not the stuff that's evolved less far from emocore etc.)

it's definitely become way too over-saturated in the past year or two
oh well, there's still a ton of awesome stuff
nothing tops Empire! Empire! or Grown Ups really, but shit like Castevet and You Blew It! and Hightide Hotel are good

Check, check it.

[SickOfStars]

Sorry to come in and just make a huge blanket statement, but I wish more of this stuff was actually a bummer and not super upbeat noodly shit.

lives in japan, hates noodles? does not compute

Check out Frontier(s)--same lead singer as Elliott!

They're both local bands for me, so I like repping them around here haha.
