Emo. There’s a negative connotation to that word. Those three letters conjure up images of gothic middle schoolers with red-streaked, too-long bangs. Three letters transport people back to their 7th grade phase where they liked pop punk and got mad at their mom for talking to them in public.

The "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series" first season has come to a close, leaving a trail of emotional destruction and a sprawling soundtrack in its wake. The show was a massive surprise to me. I assumed it would suffer from its obvious nostalgia mining, but it ended up being a refreshing take on the teen drama.

The new year has begun. It’s a time of reinvention. People will cook up resolutions — some simple, some complex. The fresh decade is ready to be defined. There’s film, television, art and music waiting to be devoured. Here’s a big ol’ list of albums coming in 2020 that demand your attention.

Bright, multicolored lights have been strung up along porches and apartment complexes in Bloomington. Christmas trees stand proudly in living rooms, shining on through the dark, drab nights. Mariah Carey has crawled from the stomach of the Earth, gleefully dancing her way through the snow all the way back into the Billboard Charts.

Albums are collections of songs all tied together to make one cohesive piece of art. However, some artists are content to drop singles — the song itself is the art.

The 2010s are almost over. It’s been a wild 10 years. Lady Gaga wore that meat dress. We all thought the planet was going to explode in 2012. Streaming platforms destroyed physical media. It’s been a strange decade on a strange planet.

It’s the end of the year and Instagram stories are still the stupidest thing ever invented. But, it’s Spotify Wrapped season I'm willing to open them. The internet is filled to the brim with people flexing their music taste and the amount of minutes they spent with headphones crammed in their ears.

It is my birthday. My mother referred to me as her “adult child” over Thanksgiving break. I have never been more aware of my mortality. I am one day closer to death.

Mid-November. We’re all trapped in stasis, some weird state of catatonia between the excitement of Halloween and the joyous Christmas season.

Harsh, purple lights shone down on an empty stage. A backdrop hung depicting a picture of a forgotten corner of some Midwestern state. The crowd whispered with anticipation that the show was about to begin.

Cover songs. The artistic reinterpretation of another’s words, the attempt to paste together a snapshot of someone else’s soul. Some cover songs are treated with care, elevating the original, creating a new, fresh piece of music using an older blueprint. Some cover songs suck so badly that they make you wish the original was never written and beg for a new bubonic plague.

Kanye West has always been this interesting figure, detached from humanity and reality. He seemed omnipotent, all-powerful and full of zest and spirit. He was always this larger-than-life being. Now, with “Jesus is King,” he feels like anyone else.

Strap in, folks. This is going to get really stupid.

The aux cord. That fabled bundle of wire that can change the entire atmosphere of a function or car ride. The aux cord is the Holy Land of the dashboard; millions of couples and friends have had their version of the crusades, dying in piles of fast food wrappers and dented Red Bull cans.

Big Thief’s music is transportive. The acoustic strums and sparse production whisks the listener away into a new world. A Midwestern house with a dilapidated back deck, the table littered with coffee mugs and empty cigarette cartridges. The yard is lush and overgrown, the site of broken bones, chipped teeth and bloodied knuckles. It’s a world full of back alleys adorned with broken glass and heaps of trash. It’s the real world but relayed through the eyes and experiences of someone else.
