Frame & Canvas - Braid
Braid is one of the best midwest emo bands ever. Their first full album 'Frame & Canvas' is basically perfect. It hits the perfect place in midwest emo - not too sad, not too whiny, but just melancholy enough to make you feel. There isnt a bad track on the album, but standouts include Killing A Camera, First Day Back, A Dozen Roses (probably my favorite track), and Ariel.
