Bob Tilton
 

I'm shocked catie hasn't made a thread on them.
Everyone needs to go listen to september.

I'm shocked you made it. I've been putting it off for too long. Probably the best emo band to ever come out of the UK. If you're an emo band and you name yourself after a person you're like automatically awesome, Neil Perry, Amanda Woodward, Van Johnson- there's atleast 2 that I'm forgetting. I don't think people recognize that Bob Tilton was one of the really important in building up to the late 90s screamo scene. They might've formed before the Swing Kids-not sure. Anyway they're awesome. Favorite song is Butterfly which is on Songs of Penkife and Pocketwatch, which I'll up upon request.

Up dat shiz

It might not be clear to a third party [do we have any those?] who doesn't like to read but this is obviously not one of the 3 albums- just sayin for clarity.

Honestly, I don't think they are very good at all.

I checked them out a little while ago, they are still amazing in my book.

This band is amazing. Crescent is near perfect.

I found their Peel Session thing. It's pretty awesome.

Love this band

while bob tilton were indeed awesome, my favourite emo band to come from the uk is definitely spy versus spy.

Only heard of but never heard spy versus spy. If you could up something that'd be awesome.

someone find me their s/t 7"
plz

or you can buy it for me which ever you rather.

What 7" is that? I didn't know they had a s/t...

I've seen it on ebay but that's about it. It has different packaging than everything of theirs I've ever seen. I don't know the tracklist or label. So I'm not completely sure it exists.

Who are they similar to?

During 1993, before the musical genre that would become known as "emo" had started to trickle through to the UK's fledgling hardcore scene, a little-known band from Nottingham, England called bob tilton (named after an American evangelist television star) recorded a 7 inch EP for Subjugation that would come to define the label's identity and distinction.

The untitled EP was released in early 1994, and helped by a limited pressing of 1000 copies and rumours spreading fast of the bands incredible live show, it sold out almost immediately and was later re-pressed.

from SOUTHERN | bob tilton > biography

chickendude and I figured out that s/t=wake me up when it's springtime and when they did the rerelease they changed the name.

"If you're an emo band and you name yourself after a person you're like automatically awesome, Neil Perry, Amanda Woodward, Van Johnson- there's atleast 2 that I'm forgetting."

Francis Brady, Maximillian Colby, Tristan Tzara, Charles Bronson.

Went to their last show in Nottingham. It was amazing. Used to by records from their singer in Select-a-disc in Nottingham all the time.

don't want to sound like a genre stickler but Charles Bronson aren't emo

Rusty James :D


but srsly Bob Tilton is the bestest band evers

True but I did cry when all my rare Charles Bronson stuff was stolen. That's kinda emo!

mine :)

charles bronson aint emo dude..

I know! I've already made up a crap excuse for including them earlier!
Anyway....How do you know I'm a dude? I could be a cheeky lady!

Regardless, Crescent is such a beautiful release...

it is, ive been enjoying these dudes as of late
