Being born in the mid 90s, leaves me with a soft spot in my heart for this shit. Am I alone with this? Is it bad that I still listen to it?

Like what? I think there's a huge difference between late 90's/early 00's stuff and what most kids call emo. Jade Tree records all day though...

Grind King Rims · « **Reply #3 on:** February 15, 2017, 05:53:58 AM »

Post some examples and maybe we can relate. I can almost guarantee that I'm into it though.

I've seen mineral, cap'n jazz, promise ring, and american football all within the past 6-7 years. all the bands capitalizing on their posthumous popularity lol. i dug super deep into this genre back in highschool. definitely have found some random gems throughout the years

so catchy

I haven't listened to much stuff like this over past year or so but mineral is probably still best to do it IMO

These guys went in a weird direction later, but I still love this shit.

Listen and love:

Saw them with The Get Up Kids, Disembodied and some Profane Existence band in Minneapolis in '99. One of the most fucked up shows I've ever seen.

Yeah, that one and Can't slow down...
I was a huuuuuge Thursday fan.

Jawbreaker doesn't count (and yeah, lots of bias on my part)! They deserve their own thread.

childhood · « **Reply #12 on:** February 25, 2017, 07:29:47 PM »

American Football counts? I love them

How bout Bright Eyes? I never really thought of them as emo, but they definitely got that label in the 2000s

And yeah Jawbreaker is great, but don't fit

Gray Imp Sausage Metal · « **Reply #13 on:** February 26, 2017, 04:37:28 PM »

Damn, Cap'n Jazz too? Didn't know about that one. You could also add The Casket Lottery, Hey Mercedes and Braid to your list of bands capitalizing on newfound popularity. Still love them (and the band you mentioned). It's funny to think about how popular this stuff has become, since at the time it was pretty much written off by 90% of the Punk/Hardcore and Indie Rock kids, so they were kind of left to their own little scene (that eventually became huge and ridiculous). Same can be said about "real" Screamo. Saw a kid at school a few weeks ago with a Jerome's Dream t-shirt and almost shat myself.

Yea - Cap'n Jazz reunion was around 2010ish? It was super fun and they kinda played through their whole discography which was awesome. Also was not that crowded at all because I feel that it was right before they caught on again because of that algernon cadwallader band lol. damn dude seeing someone in a jerome's dream shirt out in the wild would be crazy haha. that is rare as fuck. I dig that kinda stuff too - portraits of past, funeral diner, orchid, pg 99, etc. but also haven't listened to it in a few years. I don't know if i would like it as much now. you should join the 90s post hardcore/emo group on facebook. super active group and there is constantly random gems being posted in there

Don't have a Facebook man, haha. I swore to myself that I never would but I've been thinking about getting one recently for work. I've held strong so far, but I may break. I get the Emo resurgence: it's catchy and half the girls I see out in public dress like the ones who I'd see at shows 20 years ago (Fuck me, that's crazy!), the late 90s early 00s Screamo popularity is kind of odd to me though, especially in recent times (it would've made more sense in the early 2000s when the whole MTV Screamo thing was in full swing). It's not the most listenable music out there. A few years ago the guitar player in a band of young kids, probably 15 or 16, was warming up with "I Am Nietzsche" by Orchid. This was before their records (and Saetia's and pg.99's and most likely a bunch of other band's) were repressed, which is great. I've been debating selling a bunch of my collection, since the prices are so fucking ridiculous and kids are actually buying them (and I just bought a car and my monthly expenses just increased drastically).

IcanthelpitImfromMilwaukee · « **Reply #19 on:** March 03, 2017, 10:11:57 AM »

Also:
The Fuel that doesn't suck ass.

This record ruled, their later stuff, not so much (see also: Piebald)

Seriously, no one's mentioned Texas is the Reason yet?!

One of the best albums of the 90's. It's perfect.

Level 60 Dwarf Paladin · « **Reply #20 on:** March 03, 2017, 11:21:40 AM »

And...

Still get heavy rotation.

Good timing on this thread, I've been diving into the 90's Emo scene a lot lately. Lots of good stuff in here, my favorite I've been into recently though is Braid. Listen to the drums on this song, so fucking good!

How bout Bright Eyes? I never really thought of them as emo, but they definitely got that label in the 2000s

I always saw them more folk than anything but I haven't really paid much attention to their discography besides a couple albums

Level 60 Dwarf Paladin · « **Reply #24 on:** March 08, 2017, 02:16:06 PM »

Cursive and the Good Life used to get me through some tough times with the ladies. Jenny Lewis is still an 8-bit goddess.

The Wrens - The Meadowlands is an absolute masterpiece of an album.

It's my heartbroken go-to.

definitely varies from album to album with Bright Eyes, but the folky thing was a later development

johnes · « **Reply #28 on:** April 21, 2017, 04:35:05 PM »

Heck yeah on the bright eyes, cursive, goodlife, jenny lewis stuff.
On any given day at work I am listening to hours of Say Anything and Bright Eyes/ Conor related stuff
