You're not from the same town as me are you? Because Teen Suicide just played here, and Attic Abasement is from here.
Bands and labels you oughtta check out:
Alex G; Great sad pop music, he's on tour with Teen Suicide right now.
QUARTERBACKS: A bunch of short and sweet songs.
High Pop: Probably the most similar to Teen Suicide. High Pop is a bit more abrasive and classic rock influenced than the above bands.
Elvis Depressedly: One of the most consistently great bands, with an equally great band name.
I'm a big believer that exploring a labels catalog is a great way to find new music and support people who are as obsessed with music as I am. Here are some you might fancy.
Run For Cover Records: Elvis Depressedly is on this label. It's hard to go wrong with their artists, especially the likes of Adventures and Seahaven.
Miscreant Records: One of my personal favorites, they've put out the likes of Comfy and Jawbreaker Reunion.
Double Double Whammy: Frankie Cosmos, Mitski, LVL UP, etc. can all be found on this label.
This kind of music is what I live and breathe, despite listening to a lot of other music. There are so many corners of it to be explored and I'm still looking everyplace that I can. That's just a sampler, maybe you've already heard of some of it but either way it's great stuff.
