TOP RELEASES (ALBUMS/EPS): January - April 2026

If you are so stuck on your same emo playlist from 2008 that you can't shake out of it, here's some recommendations to bring new, and familiar, sounds to your ears. We're going by GENERAL GENRES here folks.

There's so many words to describe the music that these artists make but around here, we're sticking to the basics (mostly because I can't keep up with all of the subgenres properly). If you are offended by how I categorized your favorite band, correction will be accepted in the form of a 5 paragraph essay on what their "correct genre" to our email.
