Emanuel and the Fear is the first EP from Brooklyn-based symphonic rock band Emanuel and the Fear and was released via Paper Garden Records in February 2009.^[1]

Reception[]

Following their first release, the band was included in The L Magazine's list of "8 NYC Bands You Need to Hear" where they described the EP by saying: "The songs are based in the pop tradition, with melody proudly taking center stage, but the tidy and immaculately composed classical arrangements and the subtle electronic flourishes give the whole thing a much grander feel that immediately drives home the point that these folks can’t be contained by small stages for very long, neither literally nor figuratively. "^[2]

In popular media[]
