I Could Do Whatever I Wanted, If I Wanted is the first and only full-length album by American emo band Snowing (band).

Style

[edit]

The album's sound is considered to be less abrasive than its predecessor. Consequence said the album "is the type of album to conjure nostalgia for times in your life you thought you’d never want to endure again".[1] Spin Magazine said "the Lehigh Valley, PA foursome push beyond emo’s characteristic melancholy and opt for full-on apathy—they’re not flaccid, but completely without desire. The band experiment with meticulous math rock structures that distract from atonal vocals and vaguely threatening lyricism; I Could isn’t easy to listen to and that peculiar brashness is intentional."[2]

Legacy

[edit]

Although commercially overlooked upon its release, the album is considered a modern landmark in the emo genre, and has been featured on several "best of" lists.[3][4]

Track listing

  • I Think We're In Minsk
