Are emo bands still a thing? That seems so two-decades-ago.
What are the kids into now?
There is a screamo scene made up of gen z kids that seems to be rising in popularity. Check out a band called Catalyst... if you want to get an idea of what they are doing. Its actually really good stuff, and reminds me of the underground emo/screamo scene back in the late 90s/early 2000s.
Emo nights are a thing around the US, not sure about the crowd age.
I’d say Midwest emo is kinda a fusion of pop punk, emo and a garage band and that’s pretty popular right now
Like checkout Petey or Backstreet lovers
-pop punk
-emo
That sounds almost as bad as country music
Oy oy oy oy fuckin bullocks slit my wrist
Well, I'm ~18 and listen to MCR, but I don't call myself an emo.
Man I listened to mcr 15+ years ago. Can't believe it's still going. Pretty cool
These days, everything is kind of a thing. You can find people cosplaying 1920's jazz bands.

I'd count The Used as emo, and they're still awesome.
