Matheny, Emperor X began his aural assault in the late '90s with the release of his debut, The Joytakers' Rakes/Stars on the Ceiling, Pleasantly Kneeling. Emperor X would go on to build a sizable grassroots audience in the U.S. and Europe through constant touring, quirky promotions that involved burying physical media in geocache sites, and a prolific string of releases including standouts like 2011's Western Teleport and 2017's Oversleepers International.

5x5 for this week. More punk and emo from the 2010s. Almost finished with my digging through the previous decade. I have at least three more batches planned that should be quicker to listen through, but we'll see. I have a habit of biting off more than I can chew.

Hard to believe this, but we are playing a show with Knapsack on 10/5 at Soda Bar in San Diego. Eastern Bleeds is also playing! Knapsack is one of my favorite bands and biggest influences. I can't count the hours I've spent listening to them. This is such an honor. Tickets:
