Emanuel

Oh what no one remembers this band?! Well for those who were into the 2005 warped tour. This band actually had a chance to play up there and release 2 full lengths under Vagrant records. Pretty Major right? Well some history of emanuel. Emanuel started in the late 90's as Emanuel Nice. Songs were very poppy rock which the members got embaressed later on. As Emanuel Nice they released about 2 Ep's and 2 splits. There first 8 track EP released in 1999 entitled Hi-skool trivia which is shit. They then released and split with Lanemeyer in 2000 following that same year they released another split with Colourbone and the split entitled "Steinbach2Clarksville" and finally there last EP was released in 2002 entitled "wait" which is my favorite out of all there releases. The band took time until around 2005 they made a heavier sound and then were signed to Vagrant which there album "Soundtrack to a headrush" was released this is one of my 10th grade albums I just fucking loved. I remember watching there music video "You cannot rape the willing" and "Make tonight" which were the bands singles. The band did recieved attention but sadly not widely enough (Which is bullshit. Most fucking bands that play in warped tour are fucking horrible. When finally a decent band like Emanuel plays the shitty crowd hardly pays attention to the. Is it me or it is it that kids like shit coming out of faries assholes.) Anyways They also did a cover song which came out in Tony Hawkes American Wasteland, I thought the cover song was cool. In 2007 they finally released there final album "Black earth tiger" They had a few great songs. Well I thought this album was good actually. I couldn't believe Vagrant Records released a pretty cool album for once, (They also released Moneen's the red tree which was pretty good too) Well because the album didn't meet it's sells. The band broke up. Thats right. Shitty mainstream labels are like that. All they want you to do is make songs and sell out for them. The band went to a phase were "you didn't make enough money from this album, good luck with whatever label wants to help you" I hate mainstream labels. These guys shouldve joined a DIY label. Well the band released a music video for one of there tracks called "Cottonmouth" Pretty good video too. There song "Hey man" also came out in another video game Burnout revenge. I would always play that song while playing that game. I did hear that the band members still gather and play sometimes for fun in the basement. Well I know its been 3 years or 4 that the band has been broken up. Ugh Why hasn't Chiodos or A day remember not broken up those bands are serious shit. There last album was pretty heavier than Soundtrack to a headrush it had more of a violent sound to it. Though both albums are great.I guess mainstream fariy crowds have horrible ears for music. The band are now doing a hip hop project shit called 812 Dirty Squad. Emanuel also released a rap song called Kryptonite. I like the singers Sweater/Jacket it looks badass on him with the pins in make tonight and the willing music video.
