Release of the Day: THISYEARSMODEL / HOT ROD CIRCUIT – Split EP
- Quietly released on Reignition Records in 2001, this featured one band on the fast track – HOT ROD CIRCUIT, and one band that had a lot of friends in the right places (especially being ex-SONS OF ABRAHAM), but never broke out from their Long Island/NYC base. None of the four songs are the best material from each respective band, but all of them capture the new brand of emo/rock that reaching an apex between 2001-2003.
what the fuck happened to emo anyways.. i used to not mind saying i listened to it. now its such a bastardization of what it once was it’s embarassing to anyone who ever at one time listened to real “emo”.
