The Emo Thread

Disclosure: the 15 year old version of myself would kick my ass for making this thread. However, I've matured as a person to the point that I am comfortable saying that I can now appreciate qualities of this genre that I couldn't as a kid. If you felt the same way as I did about this music back in the heyday of emo, I implore you to keep an open mind.

The only emo Brand New album was their first one. Shame on you for including Deja Entendu.

How are we defining emo here? Song seems pretty emo

IDK, I guess. When I think emo, I think shitty black haircuts and songs about wanting to die because your high school gf left you. I always immediately think Hawthorne Heights.

Eh, I think all of these songs so far can fit the bill for emo. Some might be whiner than others, but I don't think you need to be specifically crying about ur ex-gf to be considered emo. It's more about the general angst.

I posted the Vindicated video twice in the Spiderman Homecoming thread. Didn't want to overdo it.
