about

This is the third compilation album by This Party Sucks showcasing Emo, Pop Punk and Adjacent bands in the South Yorkshire area.

The last mixtape This Party Sucks put out was in 2017, so it's about time we shouted about what's going on right now in 2020.

Three years later a lot of the bands have come and gone, but the talent definitely remains.

1. bedpost - dead dog
2. Springfall - Memories
3. Jetski - Lived Inn
4. Disaster Forecast - Safe Bet
5. Do Damage - Passing Through [Unreleased]
6. Havelocke - Drowning
7. Sobriquet - Scared Of The Police (Reuben Cover) [Exclusive]
8. Desenser - Curtains
9. Slash Fiction - For Matt
10. Air Drawn Dagger - Hexed

About:

The last mixtape This Party Sucks put out showcasing local Emo, Pop Punk and Adjacent bands was in 2017, so it's about time we shouted about what's going on right now. Three years later a lot of the bands have come and gone, but the talent definitely remains.

The This Party Sucks 2020 Local Mixtape features an exclusive cover of Reuben's 'Scared Of The Police' by Sheffield based dark emotional Post-Hardcore band Sobriquet.

Sheffield's Hardcore Punk band Do Damage have their track 'Passing Through' on the mixtape, which is an unreleased re-recording of the track which featured on their first EP.

Tracks:

The mixtape kicks off with three indie-emo tracks from bedpost, Springfall and Jetski. Perfect examples of later Emo revival bands, who can trace their influences back to the Midwest, mastering twinkly guitar riffs and indie singalongs. Springfall is unfortunately no longer a band, but they managed to release their EP after the split and it's a definite taste of what could've been. It'd be great to see bedpost and Jetski tour together when live music is back on its feet!

Disaster Forecast brings the Skate Punk vibes, super fast and melodic, reminiscent of early Blink and Tony Hawks soundtracks, followed by tracks from Do Damage and Havelocke.

Havelocke are one of the most promising Emo bands in the UK right now, they've worked with members of While She Sleeps, launched their EP at Ollie Sykes' bar 'Church - Temple of fun' and have supported bands such as Hawthorne Heights, Luke Rainsford, Muskets and more. If you don't know, get to know.

Next is the energetic and eccentric Sobriquet, followed by a relatively new band to the scene Desenser. Desenser are another band that help cement Sheffield's place in the UK Punk scene. Not specifically Emo, but sharing stages with many bands of that ilk, we're super excited to have their track 'Curtains' on the mixtape.

Wrapping up the mixtape, tracks from Slash Fiction and Air Drawn Dagger.

Flying the flag for queer Emo in Sheffield, Slash Fiction feautre with their passionate and moving track 'For Matt'. Look out for their new material releasing through record label Amateur Pop soon in the coming months.

Air Drawn Dagger are a household name to many across South Yorkshire, they're also known to be some of the nicest people that you'll ever meet on the local scene. It seems fitting to end on their latest track 'Hexed', a hard hitting track with its roots firmly in 00s Pop Punk and Emo bands.
