The Used is one of my favorite bands of all time. Their self titled album is perfection and their newer stuff is underrated. Not as good as the first album, but still fun to listen to.
They were mine too, but replacing Quinn Allman without telling him really soured my taste for them. It also doesn't help that Joey Bradford isn't a very interesting guitarist.
You have no idea how often that exact scenario you described in the beginning plays out. I have no groceries at home because I’m always having to drop them and run away
9:40 This type of slowly explaining to people they can't have everything they want is what it's gonna be like raising a child. I'm glad Finn is getting his reps in.
I feel like Saves The Day is a band that should have been bigger. Those first three albums were so good, and I thought they would catch on after Stay What You are had some small mainstream success. Just never happened. Still great!
My first Era of emo was the late 90s Vagrant/Doghouse era- The Get Up Kids, Saves the Day, Dashboard Confessional, and the like. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Also, Dag Nasty is my absolute favorite of the early hardcore bands, and would second Finn's recommendation of them. And finally- I don't think anyone else considers Fugazi to be emo, they just had Ian and Guy from those other DC emo bands. You should all be listening to Fugazi.
Still can't stop listening to The Used (first album only), Silverstein, All-American Rejects, and ESPECIALLY Motion City Soundtrack all these years later
Thrice and Funeral For A Friend were the two of the best 2000’s bands. I’m assuming they weren’t “emo?” Post hardcore maybe? I don’t know all of the correct genre names.
Early 2000's music scene was great, aside from the fashion of skinny jeans, eyeliner & long fringes. Back when people didnt know (or care) what bands where punk, emo, post hardcore, screamo or metalcore. The Used, Taking Back Sunday, Thrice, Emery, From First To Last, Hawthorne Hieghts, Funeral For a Friend, Mest, The Spill Canvas, Thursday, Rise Against, Dashboard Confessional, The Starting Line, Senses Fail, Coheed & Cambria, Saosin, Escape the Fate, Story of the Year, Thursday - I'll still go back to those bands every now and then if im on a nostalgia trip.
Probably my favourite emo band from the early-to-mid 2000's-era is Trust Company. Their album "Lonely Position of Neutral" oozes that vibe of hanging out behind a brick-and-mortar shopping plaza in a small suburban American town.
It’s a fact, if you don’t have Understanding In A Car Crash by Thursday blow up in 2001, you don’t have most of the 2003-2007 era bands. MCR specifically have said that Thursday made them want to be in a band.
I'm from Milwaukee, Promise Ring was the first emo band and it was great to help Dan break down his drums. Their demo was a bespoke valentine mixtape in a manila envelope. Ground breaking.. Great times! :)
Ya know what’s weird? I didn’t listen to emo music, like basically at all. But I know all the songs, and they’re still a bit nostalgic, just cuz everyone I knew was into it and played it
I’m going through these comments and am baffled that no one has mentioned Bayside?!? Lyrically they are I feel one of the most emo bands out there. The way Anthony pours his soul when he’s singing is emo af…
I don't think people were asking you to name every band so much as suggesting that Sunny Day is more influential and relevant than Page99 which like, yeah I'd agree lol
I don’t understand why most people like the poppy trash emo more than the actual depressive shit. When I’m feeling down I wanna listen to someone screaming viscerally, and mallcore just makes me think of a kid who gets made fun of for shopping at hot topic. It’s apples and oranges.
@scottoleson1997 Yeah but not to sound 1000 years old, but there's plenty of "mallcore" stuff like that but I can actually understand what they're saying? And the production quality doesn't make my ears bleed? I don't get why oldheads think shitty production= more "real" or better somehow 🤷♂️
@@ChristopherJames1993 they have alot of "real emo" type influence, but i would call them like alternative rock, since they mix so many different genres. Not that the lable really matters tho lol
The dashboard dynamic is interesting bc I was born in 99 and grew up in the massive third wave of emo. I listened to a lot of the pop punk and emo bands of that Era and got into the post hardcore stuff as I hit late elementary/middle school. But I probably heard about dashboard for the first time in high school, despite their setting the stage for a lot of what I grew up with.
The best emo record ever is Leatherface's mush(dc inspired emo rites of spring/dag nasty/embrace etc by guys who could actually play) its so good Hot water music have made a career trying to re record something even a quarter as good.
45 yrs young.. I've been Emo before Emo was Emo.. lol.. I cant stand it how "Emo's" are all painted with the same broad brush.. Not every one that loves and listens to Emo music is Sad or dark, depressed, cuts themselves, lol.. or whatever other ridiculous stereotype is out there.. I'll always be Punk/Emo and its fine if I'm now a "Old Head" "Dinosaur Emo" lol
I have almost the exact opposite opinion as you on this subject. I'm hoping kids into mall emo and emo rap eventually get into Rites of Spring and Fugazi and become punishers in your comments section. 😝
Further Seems Forever's first album the Moon is Down is my favorite emo album of all time. The other albums were good, but it wasn't the same once Chris left to go full time Dashboard.
The Used self-titled album was the best. How could you skip that? I Caught Fire?? Really?!? Box Full Of Sharp Objects, The Taste Of Ink, Poetic Tragedy? The whole album is impeccable. 2002. Freakin’ 21 years ago. The best Emo/Screamo album ever.
He didn't forget, he just couldn't mention every single one. BMTH was way bigger than Silverstein back in the day and he didn't mention them either. And by the way, My Heroine was way more popular among emos.
I'll always remember this specific event. This one guy I knew growing up was a "prep" as we called them, and thought literally anything that had a heavy guitar or angry vocals was "Emo". Three Days Grace? Emo. Job for a Cowboy? Emo. Pantera? Emo. Turns out one day he listened to a Fall Out Boy song and liked it. When I told him "That's what emo actually is" he refused to believe it.
Went to a club a year ago in ft worth with wife and friends we were all hammered and everyone in the club went nucking futs when "sugar were going down" came on. So your right on point with that statement Finn
As a teenager, I’m just saying this is what my main emo outfit would be turtleneck jacket, which, of course is black black Converse black and just the tiny bit of gray sweatpants any black band shirt, a black gator and black fingerless gloves
I remember when the tide turned in the Hong Kong band scene… it went from grunge and some metal to emo over night. We always were the late comers to the party, but all of a sudden it was uncool to listen ti grunge, and you had to have girl jeans, tiny t-shirts that revealed your belly button and deltoids (or lack there of), and you had to have sideways swooshed hair. I never really got into it, I went on with stormer rock and metal, but emo became huge in HK in the late 90s, especially in the born again Christian community. I swear, it seemed like all the emo bands were Christians, singing about Christianity… yeah, Christian emo was a thing in HK.
Post having watch video: Fuck... Ill eat my words, dog. You kept it real emo most of the way, you even commented at the fact that people like me would get upset if you didn't mention that the next wave isn't real emo. I wish you mentioned some of the new real emo bands tho: Microwave, Foxing, Movements and Citizen those are the big 4 (there sick) in the current real emo scene. Other good ones are or were Modern Baseball, Hot Mulligan, Sorority noise and Tiny Moving Parts. BTW some skramz is badass. Page 99 and Orchid extra raw. I Would Set Myself On Fire For You, and Old Grey and Saetia are a little more palatable if your a deadbeat with low self esteem and kinda like sound of a person cry screaming to Hardcore infused Jazz. Deafheavon was kinda invented black-gaze, totally different... But your totally right! Kinda same! Iv been making that comparison for years. The only difference really is a bit of song structure and subject matter. It sounds phonetically very similar.
With all due respect. This is not a real emo starter pack. These albums are : Further Seems Forever - The moon is down / The Early November - The acoustic EP / Saves the day - Through being cool / The Get Up Kids - Something to write home about / Dashboard Confessional - The place you have to come to fear the most, So impossible EP, Swiss Army Romance, (Not Vindicated) / Thursday - Full Collapse / Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon / The Anniversary - Designing a Nervous Breakdown / Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue / Thrice - The artist in the ambulance / Taking Back Sunday - Tell all your friends / Something Corporate - Leaving Through the Window /The Rocket Summer - Calendar Days / The Starting Line - Say It Like You Mean It / City and Colour - Sometimes. If you have more question. I'm here.
I've been waiting for this to come out. Thank you for this To be honest when I get someone into emo, I don't actually start with the og or any of the bands from the past. What I've been normally doing is showing what the current state of emo is so usually I show people like bands like If I Die First, SeeYouSpaceCowboy, Static Dress, Wristmeetrazor and etc. because I tend to notice that when I showed someone a band from like the 2000s they would normally just stick with that and not check out anything new,. So when I show them something like If Die First then they would go back check the bands that influenced them and so on. Also the first time I heard If I Die First was in one of your videos and it was only for a few seconds but I made sure to remember the name and the members and ever since then I have loved the band and SYSC ever since. Like those are literally my favorite bands right now, so thank you Finn. You technically made a difference in my life by showing your audience those bands and just any new artists.
Underoath (despite the fact of not being considered edgy enough for being christians) where pretty big as well and very influential and also kinda better songwriters than everybody else, their albums Define the great line and They're only chasing safety were huge during the 2000s screamo era

I think it actually works way better with the setting, like random shit just hanging off the ceiling of an old abandoned building
The Used is one of my favorite bands of all time. Their self titled album is perfection and their newer stuff is underrated. Not as good as the first album, but still fun to listen to.
You mean “Sharp Objects” one of the greatest songs of this genre
They were mine too, but replacing Quinn Allman without telling him really soured my taste for them. It also doesn't help that Joey Bradford isn't a very interesting guitarist.
I LOVE Promise Ring, Texas Is The Reason, Sunny Day Real Estate, and The Get Up Kids.
The best of the best from the 90s second wave
You have no idea how often that exact scenario you described in the beginning plays out. I have no groceries at home because I’m always having to drop them and run away
Shoutout to Silverstein, underrated kings of mall screamo 2.0
The Used debut album changed the game. Probably the most important album of that era
best album ever by the best band ever
Having If I Die First amongst those legends on the screencap is BOLD and I'm HERE FOR IT
You should have mention Get Up Kids being the first catalyst of emo mixed with pop punk before the mainstream rise.
9:40
This type of slowly explaining to people they can't have everything they want is what it's gonna be like raising a child. I'm glad Finn is getting his reps in.
Bert McCraken Artwork Era was my entire hair esthetic throughout highschool. Im still there from time to time
I million percent agree about The Used. Love that you always give them their deserved flowers.
I was really into Jawbreaker's album Dear You, super good 90's emo
jawbreaker is amazing! 24 hour revenge therapy is one of my favourite albums
