Grey Gordon is on No Sleep Records as a Death Cab-ish acoustic emo artist, but like a lot of modern emo artists, he likes shoegaze too...

Against Me! did an acoustic cover of The Mountain Goats' ”Going to Georgia,” and video of that is in this post.

Tonight's NYC-area shows include A$AP Ferg, Sleep, Black Lips, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Bermuda Triangle, Combo Chimbita, and more.

Against Me! also recently welcomed back bassist Andrew Seward, who was in the band from 2002 to 2013 and played on every album from 2003's Against Me! as the Eternal Cowboy through 2010's White Crosses.

Boston's Aviator are yet another fine example of modern bands keeping alive '90s/'00s screamo and melodic hardcore -- see also Touche Amore, Pianos Become the Teeth, Defeater, Frameworks, State Faults, etc etc etc...
