The Emersons

New CD 'Closet Homo sapiens' out now! $9ppd

About Me

The Emersons play fast, hard, and mercilessly. The Emersons are Rochester’s Sweatiest Band. Bars that they play at sometimes have to make beer runs - the people are so overcome by the awesomeness that they must take to heavy drinking to deal with The Rock.
Bands that are in The Emersons’ Top 8 are similarly outstanding. Your ears will thank you after you go listen to them, and your wallet will understand and appreciate the sacrifice it makes when you buy their records.
REVIEWS OF THE NEW DISC
""Closet Homosapiens" is a 12 song CD that boasts catchy hooks and punchy melodies that together make for a considerably strong pop-punk release. My favorite song on "Closet Homosapiens" would have to be "Creepo Pervo" or "Degenerate", but there are 12 good ones to choose from, so go buy it and find out for yourself." - four-star review at PunkRockReview.org
"Closet Homosapiens’ sound is easy enough to grasp -- if you dig the Ramones, the Queers, Groovie Ghoulies and the like, you’ll dig this record. It’s pop-punk of the thrashy, searing variety." - punknews.org
