Here are some bands/artist that we like and may be held responsible for our sound:
Against Me!, Alkaline Trio, The Lawrence Arms, Hot Water Music, Cursive, Blink 182, NoFX, Rancid, Bright Eyes, Elvis Costello, These Arms Are Snakes, Sublime, Defiance Ohio, The Descendants, Elliot Smith, The Beatles. The Beatles? Yeah, the fucking Beatles.
One side effect of the bastardization of emo-core into the unrecognizable pop-culture monstrosity it is today was the wholesale abandonment by the underground of the raw, awkward pop-punk that characterized emo in the 1990s. Fortunately, there are Baytown imports Last Ride In, who deliver the throat-shredding, embarrassingly honest goods on Washed Up. The band nails the musical hallmarks of emo-core, including out-of-sync buildups, the penchant for suspended chords, and sudden jumps into double time. "I Woke Up Swearing" exemplifies the style done right, stacking up herky-jerky riffs and lopsided lyrical phrases and then diving off into a monster hook. The peculiar power of this music comes from the barely competent grafting of innocent melodies onto hardcore energy, and viewed as a musical abstraction, it holds little interest, especially when, like Washed Up, it's basically a time capsule from 10 years ago. Yet for sheer, desperate release, it's hard to beat.
