The Anniversary - Designing a Nervous Breakdown
Niche: Alternative Rock, Midwest Emo, Indietronica
Location: Lawrence, Kansas, USA

Been a hot minute since I've updated this, or been active on this site for that matter, and being in an emo-lateral band (excuse me, we're goth) in a scene full of other emo acts really pushed me to the limit with the genre and I now listen to more krautrock, electronic, goth, industrial etc. than emo but still find the genre to be somewhat of a home.

This album being the first midwest album I've heard in a while submerges me right back into that mindset. The college synths on this record just an extra embellishment; reminding me of similar arrangements on Get Up Kids and Reggie and the Full Effect records. It's a pretty good record as well, if not groundbreaking at all it's the same midwest emo I left behind that 3rd semester of college.

8/10
