My Vinyl/Wax/Frisbees

I’m going to try to slowly upload my vinyl collection.

Fall Out Boy: From Under The Cork Tree

This was the album that put the band on the mainstream map, but everyone in the scene was already waiting for it to drop. I still remember listening to this for probably the 100th time and thinking to myself: This might be the peak of pop punk. It may not get better than this… and that’s still an argument today.

Fall Out Boy: Take This To Your Grave

Fall Out Boy released two of the greatest pop punk albums of all time. This is one of them. I still remember the moment this album came out. I picked up the CD the first week it was released and I was fucking blown away. This was a game changer.

Eve 6: Grim Value

Eve 6’s first 4 albums were so good that I had high hopes for their post 2020 EP. Unfortunately, this was a miss. I really don’t care for the direction they went and sadly, that’s the risk you take when you blindly purchase vinyl when it’s first released. Sometimes you have to take a chance so that you don’t end up spending an arm and a leg on the same record down the road. Anyway, I’m still hoping ‘It’s All In Your Head’ gets pressed eventually.

Eve 6: Speak In Code

When Eve 6 got back together years after their breakthrough, I wasn’t sure what to expect. This was a great album that didn’t get the attention it deserved. It leaned a little more into the pop side of pop punk, but despite that, it’s damn good.

Eve 6: Horrorscope

This is such a catchy album. I remember my friends and I signing along to this album on countless car rides. This band was so good in their prime.

Eve 6: Eve 6

This came out when I was in high school. I remember hearing it all over the radio and it was so catchy. It takes me back to another time now. It’s insane to think they wrote this while they were still in high school.

Enter Shikari: The Mindsweep

I stumbled upon this band just after this album came out and they had such a unique sound. I went through their back catalog but this album was what stuck with me the most.

Eminem: Kamikaze

I really enjoyed Recovery, and The Marshall Mathers LP 2 had some good songs on it, but Revival just wasn’t good. Then Kamikaze came out and it felt like a return to the old days. Great rhyme and flow and just savage take downs. This was what I missed.

Eminem: The Slim Shady LP

This was the first rap album I ever listened to in full and it blew me away. I fell in love with the flow and speed of rap. Eminem was the gateway drug to hip hop for me and this was the beginning.

Emery: The Question

This album was the next great evolution in the band’s sound. It’s beautiful and aggressive at the same time. I’m not sure I’d love A Day To Remember as much as I do today, without Emery.

Emery: The Weak’s End

The screaming took a little while to grow on me when I first listened to Emery. But the gentle singing and lyrics really made a balance between the 2 extremes.

Ellwood: Lost In Transition

This was the side project of the lead singer of the Mad Caddies. Eventually most of the band would join the Mad Caddies. It’s a little more reggae than ska but this was almost like a lost Mad Caddies album and it fits in really well with their catalog.

The Early November: In Currents

This was an excellent return after their hiatus. Their albums after this didn’t feel quite the same, but this one slaps.

[popcornpunk182]

The Early November: For All Of This

This was released during the height of Drive Thru Records. This EP is great. I remember seeing them play when the band was still teenagers.

Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows: D.R.U.G.S.

This album was a big deal when it was released. It feels kinda dated now, but I’ll still give it a listen from time to time.

Dropkick Murphys: The Warrior’s Code

This might be the Murphys most famous album because of ‘I’m Shipping up to Boston’. How can you not love that song?

Dropkick Murphys: Blackout

This was my first introduction to the Dropkick Murphys when it came out. I’m moving to Boston in the near future and I feel like it’s mandatory to listen to the Murphys.
