mewithoutYou - [A→B] Life: When Poetry and Post-Hardcore Meet
from No Filler Music Podcast · host No Filler
mewithoutYou's debut record [A→B] Life defies the genre labels one might be eager to place on it. Singer Aaron Weiss' poetic lyricism and spoken word-style vocals can sometimes feel emo, but his philosophical themes go so much deeper than emo's hallmarks of self-loathing and insecurity. And the impassioned screams and neurotic mumbling sprinkled so effectively throughout his vocal performances leave the listener just as emotionally gutted as the words Weiss is punctuating. Musically the rest of the band weave punk, post-hardcore, and grunge throughout the record in such a way that makes their sound just as varied and sporadic as the vocal performances. For fans of all of the above: this record is certainly one to put on and fully engage with. mewithoutYou - Bullet To Binary mewithoutYou - The Ghost mewithoutYou - Everything Was Beautiful And Nothing Hurt mewithoutYou - (A) mewithoutYou - Gentlemen Narrow Head - Night Tryst Smokey Robinson - Baby That's Backatcha mewithoutYou - Wolf Am I ( And Shadow) This show is part of the Pantheon Podcast networ, Learn more about your ad choices.
