"Drake’s “Hotline Bling” is fun, catchy and the video is brilliant! Emo light-skinned brotha doing meregue? Come on!"

Sexually Charged Emo Extravaganza
I definitely enjoyed this album, but it isn't for everyone. The lyrics are both rather dark and often sexual. If either of those things bother you, then I'd skip AFYCSO.

Rolling Stone's 493rd greatest album of all time
Very … I don't know … lo-fi? Alt-country? Folk-emo? Plaid-pop?
This album is one where the listener needs a good few listens to really appreciate I think. The songs are all quite listenable but quite understated and to my mind missing a little something (a kick, some personality). I might give this album another try in future, my dad is a fan.

One of the greatest of all time
We Are The Romans is simply one of the greatest albums of all time. Period. Their second studio album Botch took it up a notch. It's like discordant emo if it had only listened to Coalesce and took steroids. It's incredibly heavy but also beautiful. It's hard without being macho, it's orchestral without being over the top. I can listen to this album over and over again and never get bored, just constantly absorb the emotion it gives me. An incredible album.

Gotham  - Season 3
Gotham - Season 3
2016 | Drama
The third series of this "making of Batman" show takes something of a step away from the young emo Wayne, and allows more of the villains to start to develop. There is something that really appeals to me about seeing a possible origin story of each of these characters all intertwined, with that same "who is the joker" question at the back of your mind. While I feel the number of episodes is too high for the overall plot, giving the pacing an issue or two, I still really enjoyed this series, with some epic ham acting injected throughout.
  
How To Flirt with a Naked Werewolf was a cute fun quick read. I was sucked into the story right away by the fun witty voice of the interior monologue, relaxed writing style, and likeable characters (oh ok and drool-worthy male protagonist). I don't often find such a fun writing style or voice from romance novels, but Molly Harper has surprised me. She used creative descriptions, character, and personality in her writing.

(minor spoiler alert, this paragraph only!) The plot itself was a little "twilight-esque" with the whole "we can't be together so I'm going to leave and be emo" thing, the "I'm too dangerous for you" thing, and the constant nausea and realizing she's pregnant thing. But I liked Mo a lot better than Bella (who, can I just say, deserved an emo masochist) so I'm not too bothered by it. Plus, these 370 pages had just as much plot—and maybe more—than the entire twilight saga combined. Then again that's not hard to do.

I really enjoyed this book and would pick up the next ones in the series if I had money and a job. Alas, I have $0.70 in my checking account and no income. I'll have to pick it up over the summer when I get my job back…

The only reason I read Volume 2 is because I felt guilty for not reading all of my library books. Again, skews to the younger demographic. It also pulls from the 'Captain America: Hydra-Agent' mess that I can't even acknowledge to be valid. I haven't read it.... and I was kind of pissed that he killed Natasha (spoiler alert?).
After this volume... I can't wait until they reboot Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel in January and give her character back to Kelly Thompson.
The last issue of the volume was the best, mostly because Carol's back on Earth with her friends and only gets emo at the end.

"Emo steez. I was a little emo kid. It's one of those things where, again, notably realising when somebody does something different – and Fieldy definitely played his instrument different than any bass player I'd heard before. I could tie this to Marvel and everything again, like Todd McFarlane did the cover of the album Follow The Leader and the video for 'Freak On A Leash', and he was also a Marvel artist at the time. It was a bit iconic for me, from Follow the Leader to Issues. That's all I was at school; at one point I went through a hard-ass Korn phase where I was just like, 'I only listen to Korn.' I didn't want to play bass like Fieldy because I didn't I totally understand why it wasn't always very melodic or harmonic, but a lot of the choices that they made when it came to progressions and stuff like that were insane, also, and it was something that drew me in. Every now and again I run into them, and we're not friends, but we're associates to the degree of where we recognise each other. I literally just got a chance to see them at a show and we sat and talked, but I haven't ever told them that like they were a big part of my growing years as an artist and as a bass player. Yeah, Issues is still one of my favourite Korn albums."
