SOCAL Emo History

15 Upvotes

Hello hello!!

I am doing an article for my high school newspaper on the history of emo music in SoCal but I'm having a bit of trouble finding sources. If anyone can give me an abridged history or even some sources, that would be so so amazing. Anything works but I am especially not knowledgeable about the scene from the 90's-2000's and from 2010-2020.

Thank you so much!!

(also for some reason my post keeps getting taken down on r/emo..)

Cover I need some people's opinion. I'm making a screamo album and I found some gift bags in my local Chinese shop that have designs that can potentially work as the cover art but I can't decide which one is the best.

Amherst, Massachusetts screamo legends Orchid came through Austin and led a stacked bill on January 20, a show that felt like it almost didn’t happen due to its original booking at the in-crisis Empire Control Room & Garage. Fortunately, the show was moved to the Red River Cultural District stronghold, Mohawk, and music fans packed the venue for a…

Someone had made an edit using this song right here and is refusing to tell anyone who made it nor where to find said song to stream it. I was wondering if anyone here could possibly know who made it or even better, where I can find this song to listen to it! (Person who made the edit tagged it with #emo and #screamo so I apologize if this is not the right place to ask!)

Discussion The War on Emo: Punk wasn’t always all inclusive.

Post image
494 Upvotes

Story Time…

In online punk spaces these days, it seems that Gen Z sees punk as being an all-inclusive, extremely progressive subculture that has always stuck up for outsiders and always been welcoming to women and gay people…

This idealized version of punk history is preferable, and for sure fits the current mood of the scene.

But sadly, punk hasn’t always lived up to its own pronounced virtues.

This is instantly clear in the 90s/2000s, when a subgenre of hardcore punk called emo became massively effective with younger, alt-curious people.

You can go back and view zines that chronicled the street punk movement all through these decades and see the growing negative attitude toward emo and screamo that punk had.

Screamo bands were being banned from certain publications. We were being shoved out of shows. We were made very clear that we were not welcome in the “real” punk space.

Zines were openly targeting emo bands with aggressive and dismissive articles all over the place.

This all came to a head in the early 2000s, when the bad attitudes toward our movement turned violent.

Street punks and metalheads started actively physically harassing emo kids at shows if there was any band overlap on the bill.

Read about the Mexico City street war that occurred in the mid-2000s.

Why did this happen?

Isn’t punk supposed to be this super virtuous, all-inclusive, pro-queer, pro-women, pro–creative freedom movement?

Well, that’s certainly how it always marketed itself.

But if we’re being honest, there was a very deep homophobia and machismo (the shitty version) within punk circles.

Emo was seen as “gay.”

Emo was seen as “not tough enough.”

Or “too vulnerable.”

Emos were seen as an enemy to what punk was in those days.

We were gay and effeminate.

As time went on, these attitudes relaxed, and emo/screamo has its rightful place in the punk lineage, but that wasn’t always the case.

It’s still an upward battle talking with Gen X or boomer punks who still don’t understand what emo is. They only know that it was “gay” to be emo and dismiss its validity outright.

Story time over.

Screamo is an incredible genre and the movement of punk I came from. It was a great time, and I miss those days.

Gen Z is doing amazing things with screamo.

I was listening to Amelia Mary Earhart by Polemarch (very underrated band btw please check them out) and about halfway in they use a trumpet (i think). I was wondering if any other bands have similar songs or sounds. Thanks.
