@LuciteRabbit I'm a 25 year old dude, so some of the music I love being synonymous with kids who weren't even alive when this was produced used to irritate me a lot. A while back, in one of my courses, one of the books that we read had a really good series of interviews with Ian Mackaye and he said something particularly profound regarding hurtful epithets- He refuses to speak the language of intolerance/hate because none of it applies to how he sees the world.

@seevendaycandle1 i will kill you

@LuciteRabbit i'm from that scene and trust me, none of us were wearing eyeliner, most of us were wearing jorts and new balances hahaha

@lazerbones The World Is a Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid to Die is a good example, though I tend to lean more towards the jawbreaker spectrum

@LuciteRabbit the problem is that you are taking what the mainstream media is calling 'emo' and letting that judge what your perception is. there are several very talented bands playing real 90s emo today. you just cant confuse them.

Christie Front Drive is the most underrated band I have ever heard, Amazing!! I just wish I found them out before they broke up! O ya the lead singer of mineral is a pussy! lol, his lyrics and voice is annoying as shit!!

this is super duper.

@eatdogs mineral is god

I think it really doesn't matter if midwest emo bands aren't popular. Actually I'm glad that they're not for many reasons including the fact that i feel fortunated and enjoy them all the more.
However there's one problem, I can't find the lyrics anywhere ^^ Does anyone know them cause I can't get them while listening ?

0 people are faggots.



funny how after all this time, they call this 'music emo kids like to make out to' lol..its so much more, i doubt most of the emo kids now even know about this stuff. The scene look is cute and all but I appreciate how most these bands in the 90's looked like regular guys without eyeliner..something just down to earth and real about it all..maybe I'm just a purist. anyway, thanks for posting!

@LuciteRabbit early 90's indie died. It's sad, since I wasn't ever able to experience that social scene. Instead, I got stuck with the kids getting into this new age hardcore, and whatever the hell this crunk core is. How could things go from Embrace and Cap'n Jazz to Brokencyde?

@Torkulguy
Brokencyde is terrible, yes, but I actually enjoy a lot of the new hardcore and pop punk. I'm pretty much open to anything.

@LuciteRabbit
I'm not gonna lie, I'm a 16 year old kid who straightens his hair every morning and what not, but I literally listen to every everything I can. In my opinion, you should do whatever you think is cool, and I guess I just like the cliche haircut, it's just sad that sometimes fashion presides over the actual music.

@thor8808 you should do whatever you think is cool? "Cool"? Who cares if it's cool or not. Do whatever the fuck you want :D
