Hello fellow Sorry Staters! It’s been a busy week here at Sorry State! We have a bunch of new releases that we have listed on the site and have been continuing to list all these quality used items that everyone seems to be snatching up quickly. This week is going to be a short one for me. I honestly have not been mentally in a good place to really soak up any new music; even trying to put together a staff pick has been difficult. So one of things I have done during my day is to just live in my thoughts, whether that be working in silence at work (as much as I can), driving to no podcasts or music and just trying to meditate when I get off of work before I walk into my house. I know I talk about it a lot on my picks, but mental health is important, and go to therapy if you can!
When I have been listing to music, I have been listening to some older 90s emo groups. One in particular that I went back to the most was Jejune. Jejune was a group that formed in 1996 in the second wave of emo rock. Some of the best records they put out were their split records with Jimmy Eat World before they sold out to become a college corporate rock band. They toured with Braid, The Get Kids and Piebald. Luckily, there has been word of the band re-releasing their catalog on Numero Group, including the rare, hard to find Jimmy Eat World split and their first album, Junk.
Short but sweet this week! I hope everyone has a great week and continues to keep us busy by buying all this used stuff we have been posting. Here’s to hoping I get my groove back in the coming weeks. Cheers ya’ll and thanks for reading!
