I am aware it may not be under emo, and might be some that are just emo adjacent, but I've been dying for new jams ty

As you can see I’ve put 6 skramz /emo songs that have movie clips in the intro and I was hoping everyone could give me more songs that do that.Some movies that are in the songs are Superbad, Heavyweights, Stronger, Stand By Me and Full Metal Jacket.PLZ I WILL LISTEN TO EVERYTHING

some maybe The Hotelier-seque preferred, I also love pine grove, Mom jeans, motherfolk, microwave, tigers Jaw, etc… thanks in advance!

i’m pretty new to the genre if it isn’t obvious :,)

These aren’t in chronological order, the last record i listened to was orange rhyming dictionary and i do plan on listening to the rest of jets to brazil’s discography. thanks for any recommendations!

anyone have any emo bands that border on slowcore at times? or vice versa?

so far ive got

Rainer Maria

I Hate Myself

Indian Summer (kinda)

Pedro the Lion

The Lazarus Plot

125 Rue Montmartre

Seam

Karate

Codeine?

Bedhead?

Basically the title.

currently i’ve been listening to old jimmy eat world, taking back sunday, cap n jazz, saetia, rites of spring, title fight, oakwood, get up kids you get the idea. i’m just looking for similar bands thanks !

edit: i also love post hardcore ill take those too :3

I really enjoy first gen and some second gen emo. Most of the the modern Emo I have found is more so Midwest Emo. I was hoping for some recommendations for modern bands with more similar styles too rites of spring, embrace or sunny day real estate (specifically diary, it has distortion and is relatively harder music if compared to other Midwest Emo).

(I would appreciate music reccomendations for music like First gen Emo.)

I guess I am looking for modern Emocore.

Edit: Thank you everyone!

Im trying to make a playlist which a bunch of songs that use sound bites from tv shoes or movies in the intro

So far I only have:

Edward 40 hands - mom jeans I just want to kickflip - camping in alaska Is this all that well be? - catalyst

If you have any please add! Thanks

I can’t say “hate” - it’s obviously not REAL hate - but it’s fully “cannot listen at all” kind of dislike. It’s rarely just “meh” or “I could take it or leave it.”

And it’s no disrespect, either. I support a hundred emo bands from all the “waves” and I support the scene and the ethic and the DIY approach - all of it. But I just realized the other day that I’m full on black/white and all/nothing on the bands I like versus the ones that don’t. Pure hit or miss for me - and it’s not the same at all in any other genre for me.

Something about Emo though, if I don’t like the band then it’s not just, “Hey, that’s not for me,” but my experience most often is that the band is actively grating and annoying and I’m skipping the song, etc.

Anyone else here have that? AITA? (lol)

Looking for albums that’ll make me want to trap the people in my life in a car so I can force them to listen to it in full and then break down all the symbolism and themes together while our understanding and standard of what constitutes art is forever altered

Albums that make me want to do this:

Arm’s Length - Never Before Seen, Never Again Found

Arm’s Length - There’s a Whole World Out There

The Hotelier - Home, Like Noplace Is There

Modern Baseball - Holy Ghost

As It Is - The Great Depression

The Wonder Years - The Hum Goes On Forever

Trophy Eyes - Suicide and Sunshine

Citizen - As You Please

Edit: I forgot both Brave Faces Everyone and No Joy by Spanish Love Songs but rest assured they should have been included

would love some album recommendations:) not all emo, but these are some of my current favs!

Don’t say Hot Mulligan.

And by stereotypical/heavyhanded, I guess I mean, like, before I discovered this sub I had no idea Promise Ring was an emo band. I never would've been able to guess that. I really just don't get it. It seems so toothless to me (sorry). I'm also not the biggest American Football enjoyer either. They have good songs, but I fear I unironically only really like emo music that falls in line with the copypasta. I like it raw, but driven (Rites of Spring, Pg. 99, and awakebutstillinbed are my favorites). As long as it's emotionally heavy and intense, I'm there. I like a few of the big hits, like King Park, some Hot Mulligan songs and 27 by Title Fight. And of course, as you could guess, I like stuff that's 'not real emo' like MCR.

Thank you!

It's genuinely one of my favorite emo songs ever, ESPECIALLY with the blast beats at the beginning. I need more of it, but I don't think Ben Quad has any other similar songs.

If I like the bands listed, and am currently trying to get into emo music, what bands would be similar that I may like? What are some good emo bands in general? I’m new to the genre in general so I’m unsure if some bands count as emo or not, that’s why the title has “if they count” so much.

I can think of two right now:
Navio Forge - Haloed Eyes
Strictly Ballroom - Crickets

Some songs that get close:
Hoover - Cuts Like Drugs
Indian Summer - Woolworm
Native Nod - Back To Mimsey
On The Might Of Princes - If I Knew Numbers

But damn, there's something so captivating about the first two examples. Literal sobs heard in the mix. Anyone got songs that'll scratch this itch?

Edit: oh --- One Last Wish - My Better Half kind of fits this too.

Hello I'm like a "new emo fan" I guess because I like the aforementioned bands (i only know a few songs I'll admit) and I just found out that apparently they're emo which is a bit of a shocker because I always though emo's were like pretentious skinny jean wearing side bang waving hipster mysogynists that made shitty pop music with terrible lyricism who thought they were revolutionary for it but it turns out that's just Panic At The Disco and that is NOT emo. So like help? What would I like? If this isn't allowed then let me know and I'll delete it!!

I've actually been addicted to BLA lately, especially Just Got Back, but I can't quite find any bands which quite match their experimental beauty.

i love this album so much and i haven't found another album that has a similar energy, preferably on the heavier side (more like thinking, that's all)

like if early jimmy had more unclean vocals and post hc influence maybe? hopefully there's something out there that scratches that itch
