I just came across this: the singer from the greatest emo band from Colorado, Christie Front Drive has a new band:
You can download one of their tracks off of their record label's site. This track has an upbeat feel, but retains the feel of distance that was soaked into all of Christie Front Drive's music. There's a fan-made video for a CFD song on youtube that simply pairs footage of landscape of Colorado shot out a car window with one of their songs. It's completely fitting.
When these singers of older emo bands continue their work they stray into great indie-pop territory, and this song has the pace of a band like The Pains of Being Pure at Heart or Maritime. What was vague emotion becomes more measured and deliberate, and that's not such a bad thing!

Kalpana played a show with Golden City! It was our most recent show, I think...they were nice dudes. They were talking about how their friends in bands who made it big stopped having fun being in their bands and making their music.
