Hailing from Long Island, New York, Macseal has built a reputation for making expertly crafted indie rock that bridges the gap between emo and power-pop, resulting in a coffee-fueled 2000s coming-of-age sound that energizes audiences, encouraging them to crowd surf and nod along. In 2024, Macseal followed up their debut album ‘Super Enthusiast’ (2019) with ‘Permanent Repeat,’ an album that served as an outlet for the band to emotionally and musically reflect on their lives at their own pace. On ‘Permanent Repeat,’ Macseal pairs the sound of early 2000s pop rock with more modern twists and turns, condensing big themes such as longing, existential dread, and falling in love into moments that can be played on a loop. Playing songs from across their discography, Macseal’s Audiotree Live performance illustrates the evolution of their sound, combining layered math-rock elements with emo vulnerability to create accessible, feel-good tracks. During their interview with Audiotree Host, Psalm One, Macseal chats about Long Island Iced Tea, European Subway sandwiches, and their 10 years together as a band.
