Formerly Bodies

Formerly Bodies is an indie project created by singer-songwriter Hannah Weir, from Lansing, Michigan. She's only put out one EP thus far, but the three tracks on it are nothing short of incredible. Sonically, they are very ambient and haunting, featuring slow, reverb-soaked chords and arpeggios accompanying her vocals. It can definitely draw strong comparisons to Julien Baker, both for the incredible songwriting talent and the somber atmosphere created. Definitely recommended. Enjoy.

Hot Mulligan

Hot Mulligan are a five-piece pop punk/emo band from Lansing, Michigan that have been around since 2014. They are currently signed to No Sleep Records. Their latest album, Pilot, has been gaining a lot of traction, thus I've been getting a ton of requests to post these guys. If you dig bands like The Wonder Years or Taking Back Sunday, this is definitely recommended. Enjoy.

iwontstopwonderinguntilyoustopbreathing

Yes, this could be the only band name that rivals iwrotehaikusaboutcannibalisminyouryearbook. This band, iwontstopwonderinguntilyoustopbreathing were a three-piece (sometimes two and even one-piece) screamo band from Lansing, Michigan. There is some clear Jeromes Dream worship (did the name not give it away?), which is an obvious indication of how good of a band this is. Unfortunately, their music is now nearly impossible to find. They put out a slew of cassettes at the beginning of the decade through Plastic Smile Records, which is unfortunately now defunct. Thus, a lot of their material is now not easily available. All I have is their self-titled EP (which is fantastic, by the way). I figured I'd share it here, and if anyone has anything else by them, it'd be amazing if you could send them my way. If not, please do enjoy their self-titled at least.
