Classically Emo

what's up friends and emo's alike, although we are likely friends *and* emo's -- does this even make sense? anyway, this week the incredibly handsome and stellar mike hansen (pentimento, hotel etiquette) joins classically emo talk about Taking Back Sunday's record, 'Where You Want to Be.' press play and listen to the experts talk about why this record rips from start to finish.

welcome back to another week, emo's. this week is part two of my interview with Sugarcult's Marko DeSantis, where we continue our conversation from last week. we talk a bit about 'Start Static,' 'Lights Out,' and why the hell so many Sugarcult songs appear in the Van Wilder movie. oh, and if you're curious about the potential for new Sugarcult music, yeah, we talk about that, too.

if you've been following this podcast, you know that our first episode as Classically Emo was an episode where James Boss and I talked about Sugarcult's record, 'Lights Out.' one thing lead to another, and due to the powers that be (aka the internet), I ended up connecting with Sugarcult guitarist Marko DeSantis. after a few weeks of conversing, he was kind enough to join me and come on as a special guest for Classically Emo! we talk about all things Sugarcult, their first record, and more. check back next week for part two!

welcome back to classically emo, where we talk about classic emo records. as we've said before, there are no rules as to what makes an emo record classic. if we like it, it's classic. and that's that on arbitrary definitions, ok? anyway, this week my good friend Joel Funk joins the podcast to discuss New Found Glory's 2006 release, 'Coming Home,' -- which we, ever so humbly, believe is their best record. don't agree? that's fine, we already did the episode anyway. so press play and listen to our opinion for an hour, then come back and argue with us about it on twitter.

for this week's episode we are joined by the one and only James Shotwell (podcast host, writer, all around great guy) to discuss Armor for Sleep's album, 'What to Do When You Are Dead.' it's a doozy, trust us. 

what's up youtube, or whatever platform we are on here. remember youtuber drama? believe it or not, this podcast host does. press play and find out what that exactly means -- and then, continue to listen. why? because the one and only Scott Waldman joins us this week to dive into Jimmy Eat World's 2004 album, 'Futures.' it's a doozy, but in a good way. scouts honor.

HELLO. It's our fourth episode, isn't that crazy? Have you listened to all of the three previous yet? It's time to catch up, because this week's episode is a doozy. This week my good friend Molly Hudelson (who currently hosts the Good Charlotte-inspired Generation GC podcast) joins me to talk about the stunning Pentimento record that is 2015's I, No Longer. A classic record not by sales, but by how utterly great it is. Press play and find out what makes it so great. Then like, subscribe, follow on Twitter --- all the good stuff.

Becky Kovach from Big Picture Media joins us this week to talk about Yellowcard's 2007 album, 'Paper Walls.' Sure, it's probably not the Yellowcard album that you thought we'd cover here -- but it's the one that you needed to hear us do first. 'Paper Walls' is arguably Yellowcard's best album. Listen to this week's episode to find out why.

Episode 2! We've already made it two weeks, what a first week. Thank you all so much for checking out our first episode last week, I appreciate it beyond words. We've got another great episode lined up for you today, where I'm joined by my friend Landon Defever to discuss The Wonder Years' third studio album, 'Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm Nothing.' It's a record that doesn't need much introduction, but since it turns ten years old this year, made perfect sense to look back on it and share our thoughts.

On our very first episode as Classically Emo, we welcome James Boss to come on to our podcast and talk about Sugarcult's record, "Lights Out." It is the last record the band released before going on hiatus, and while it didn't achieve some of the successes as their previous releases, "Lights Out" remains in the hearts of at least two of us. Press play and listen to us share our thoughts on this record, what makes it classic, and why you need to learn to love it for yourself.
