The History of Midwest EMO (Might Delete Later)

From emotional beginnings in D.C. to the emo revival, emo has seen it all. Emo’s not dead. Let's be honest, we've all been a little emo at some point. In this video I go over the history of Midwest EMO. A cozy, soft, melodic sound that defined the 90s. From punk rock and hardcore roots, to mainstream success and rise and fall and the emo revival. From D.C to warped tour to When We Were Young. From Rites of Spring to American Football, to Sunny Day Real Estate, The Get Up Kids, the promise ring, braid, to Blink 182, Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, Paramore to Modern Baseball, Title Fight, Touche Amore, Joyce Manor, Pool Kids, Oso Oso, Hot Mulligan, Neck Deep, Origami Angel, Spanish Love Songs, Alkaline Trio and Glass Beach. Embrace Midwest EMO and the 902s/2000s nostalgia and be an elder emo.
