The Emo Hour
Blink-182 in the Wild & Brand New Nostalgia
Send us a textIn this rollercoaster of an episode, Katie recounts a truly surreal experience — running into Mark Hoppus of Blink-182 fame on a hiking trail… in the middle of nowhere. As if that wasn't enough to emotionally process, just a few days later, she spots Mark AND Tom DeLonge at a restaurant. Naturally, she spirals (in the best way), and Nani is right there beside her, providing play-by-play commentary and some much-needed grounding as Katie lives out every emo kid’s dream.Once the fangirling subsides (barely), the duo dives into the episode’s main t...

But like true emo warriors, we picked ourselves up, dried our eyeliner tears, and hit record again.In this salvaged, resurrected, and possibly cursed version of the episode, Katie kicks things off by unpacking what’s been makin...

Often described as “the emo anthem”, Hawthorne Height’s single Ohio is for Lovers played a very important role in the culture of the early 2000’s emo scene. The guys speculate on what it is about Ohio that makes people write such sad music, if writing so candidly about sensitive topics such as depression, self-harm, and suicide ended up being a good thing for teens to become immersed in, and about the VFW energy that Hawthorne Heights managed to bring to their many live on television appearances.

#147 - Fredrik Brändström (Starmarket)
I first heard Starmarket on the 3rd Emo Diaries compilation in 1999 and soon after they released their third album “Four Hours Light.” I was instantly blown away with the post-hardcore sound and the next level indie rock/emo sensibility. I never met these guys back in the day and with some reunion shows recently in Japan and their home country of Sweden, I slide into the DMs on Instagram to see if they’d be up to chatting about their band. Fredrik, the lead singer and guitar player, was more than happy to chat. Washed Up Emo i...

Longwave were active around the same time as well and I loved them.Second, I was and still am, ob...

Lauren and I connected a few years ago and I found out she listened to the podcast! The stars aligned and we finally caught up recently to chat. Lauren is a massive emo fan and we chat deeply about her early days playing drums in bands around Glasgow, Scotland that helped shape who she is today. She was in a couple killer bands before this including Boyfriend/Girlfriend and Blue Sky Archives. Both are mathy, epic and remind me of the mid 90s. Find those on Bandcamp. You should also know the other two members in CHVRCHES, Ma...
