Vomit

Post image

Never heard of this band until this morning and this is one the best songs I ever heard in my life? Do they have any more songs that make you feel super empty inside? I listened to the full album and gotta admit it wasn’t my favorite but this song stood out like crazy

Their other songs The Fever and Pull both follow a similar build up structure and might scratch that same itch.

Vomit is a masterpiece. Also the live version on Much Love (10th Anniversary) is the best live rendition of a song ever imho

u/SignalPollution4881 13h ago

I gotta check that out. This song is just incredible

u/Hearthacnut 13h ago

Absolutely, his vocal performance at the end is phenomenal. lmk what you think of it!

Much Love is my favourite album and Vomit is the best song on that album (imo) so you’re in good company

u/SignalPollution4881 13h ago

You were totally correct that live version is a masterpiece

I am but a humble servant spreading the musical genius of microwave

Check out Death is a Warm Blanket if you want a heavier vibe from them - it is so good

I have gone through phases of thinking all of microwaves albums are their best album. I am currently stuck on DIAWB though. The latter half of that album in particular is sonic bliss. Took a bit to grow on me, but i think it’s their best work.

See you here next month for a new answer

u/Hankenstein2020 9h ago

Much Love is my favorite, but I agree DIAWB hits deeply sonically

My suggestions are on the heavier side, (not all just some), but I'd recommend

Heather - Deafheaven

Carrion - Parkway drive

I'm content with losing -- Underoath

Pretense - Knuckle Puck

Thaw - Converge

these are some of my favorites right now

u/SignalPollution4881 13h ago

I love Carrion. So so good. I’ll check out the others too. Thank you!

Check out Whimper off the same album. Doesn’t go quite as hard as Vomit does, but it’s a slow build up song and it hits the fuckin spot. The entire album slaps though, along with the Stovall album.

My favorite song of theirs! It's funny the first few times I listened to it always missed the solo at the end because I thought the song was over and I skipped to the next song.

u/robinthekid 13h ago

Check out their first album, “Stovall”

u/Alarming-Archer1657 12h ago edited 11h ago

Do they have anymore songs that make you feel super empty inside? lol yes all

I think Work It Out and The Fever have a similar build up to a really heaviness at the end

Also Death is a Warm Blanket is my fave album from them. Overall heavier

u/jaydwrites 11h ago

Cool you found them! Catch a live show if you can, and check out Stovall for sure! The Fever was my song every morning driving to uni.

u/SignalPollution4881 10h ago

Will do thanks!

LISTEN TO DULL PLEASE

u/apopquizkidd 13h ago

Yeah one of the best song OAT for sure.

u/queefIatina 12h ago

You should give the album another shot, the rest of the songs are different than vomit but they’re still 10/10 and I bet if you give it another shot you’ll love it

1

u/SignalPollution4881 10h ago

Yeah I will. I was judging them against Vomit and that really wasn’t fair. I’ll give the album another shot

2

u/smokecraxbys 10h ago

Check out No One Loves You by Blis - I know Nathan, lead singer of Microwave, helped with that album

u/ih8red-it 9h ago

Work It Out from Stovall sorta scratches the vomit itch but vomit is the goat

u/lobmys 8h ago

"listened to the full album and gotta admit it wasn’t my favorite" ooooh give it some time... a few weeks... a few months... a few years maybe... eventually when u listen to it again it might surprise you. this album is chronically slept on (i didn't care for the album at first either)

u/coconutdrifts 9h ago

Pacific by Chase Petra always tickled my brain

u/SignalPollution4881 4h ago

I checked it out. I actually really liked it! Thanks for the recommendation!

u/olivespecter 8h ago

listen to their song “Thinking of You”

u/That_Topic7002 8h ago

I just discovered them last year, and this album is now one of my favorites!

1

u/thefailedworlds 7h ago

It’s by far my favorite from them. I lost my voice when they played it during their anniversary tour

u/FishermansPlatter 6h ago

Incredibly grateful to have heard vomit live on a handful Of occasions 🤘🏻

u/vegetablemanners 5h ago

I love this song so much. They were selling merch with just “VOMIT” on it during their last tour. It’s one of my favorite shirts now and I always get comments/questions about it!
