Emo bands like Panic At the Disco sound way worse than I remember.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vc6vs-l5dkc

>>131076436to put that in perspective that means there has been a thread about zoomers on this board roughly twice a day for 7+ years. yikes..
>>131076457this website has millions of daily users, anon. the entire zoomer generation being mentioned at least twice a day is not exceptional or impressive. if anything, that's quite low.
>>131076414Emos have always just been a lamer and gayer version of goths, and the fact that those two subcultures have essentially merged into one during in the 2010’s proves that Hot Topic was a mistake.
>>131076414real fake fake real real second fake real real first fake wave wave particle fake screamo real real post hard fake real core real real indie rock emo
>>131076485Goths downfall began when that whole culture left the underground and became mainstream, inviting in posers.
>>131076525i say this every day
>>131076414So do Fall Out Boy and a lot of that era has aged like milk
I think Urie has a great voice and because of that people are trying to tell themselves that he's not wasting it on mid emo pop.
I just don't get any hype for this band. They sucked. Fall Out Boy were tremendously better when it came to Poseur Emo.
>>131076414willy wonka ass costume and the johnny depp wonka no less
remember when Aiden tried to be The Cure? that was funhttps://youtu.be/Mtz1cQwq4eM
>>131076485Goth? What do you know about being goth?
>>131077143the brood sucked. the fat one got to fuck luna vachon tho. kinda jealous in a weird way. i always wanted to see that muscular pussy.
>>131077168I dunno they seemed pretty dimes to me
>>131077179you only think that way because you're fuckin retarded.
>>131076485You and OP should take your faggot asses to the nearest bridge and jump off
>>131077190God forbid someone try something new
>>131077248wrestler's court. 15 minutes.
>>131077262Mmmm wouldn't wanna be me
>>131077286
>>131076414it's foidslop
>>131076483nah its high for a slow board like this
>>131076414>Panic At the Disco sound way worse than I rememberliterally just re-listened yesterday and was surprised at how i consider it almost unlistenable now.idk what changed. me i guess.
>>131076755correct
Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off is good though
>>131077602Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued is better
>>131077432it would be high if the board's population consisted of like 5 people. 2 mentions a day among literally thousands of people is very little.
>>131078074Except if you look up gen x or millennials you get under 1000 results. Hell even boomers only have about 3000, which is funny seeing that the term zoomer came from the boomer/zoomer meme spamming back 7 years ago.
>>131076414Because Zoomzoomz didnt had a teenage phase. They missed up on all of this. And thats sad.
>hadhave*
>>131078074But this board's population does consist of 5 people.. 10 people max, with the occasional tourists from other boards
>>131078115that makes perfect sense, actually. of course the emerging generation would be the most talked about at the time of their emergence. they're the only ones left in charge of the zeitgeist. millennials and gen x are very unlikely to talk much annoy their own generation because most people are, regardless of the generation they belong to.this is like when stormfags tried to make a whole show out of the fact that when you google "white couple" you get interracial couples and google had to adjust results to address this; it's an emblem of user oversights in how people tend to naturally talk about demographics rather than a sign of some coordinated anomaly.
>>131078362you still get mostly gay porn when you go to google images and search for "straight porn" lol
>>131078362>talk much annoy theirmuch *about* their
>>131076414PATD was never emo, it was pop punk.
How bad is it that I still listen to Paramore’s first three albums?
>>131078362Perhaps. However I have no doubts that the boomer/zoomer memes that were posted here back in 2018 were a forced meme effort. Just take a look at this. https://desuarchive.org/mu/search/text/Zoomer/type/op/order/asc/All started around late June, you also saw this on other boards like /tv/. Clearly inorganic. Funny enough, looking up OP posts with "gen z" only give 600 results, which to be fair is because most people on here just use zoomer instead of gen z but still.
>>131078549Also if we just search any post https://desuarchive.org/mu/search/text/Zoomer/order/asc/page/3/All around same time. Idk seems suspicious
Degenerate milk fucker
>>131078549it actually began with the 30 year old boomer meme that was spammed on every board
>>131077456"You stopped being 14" is what happenedMy Chemical Romance is shit too, the music equivalent of jingling keys.
>>131078362Imagine white knighting for fucking Google lmao
Friendly reminder that if your thread starts with zoomer within the first 5 words, you are no older than 25 years old.
>>131079278Based
>>131076549Emos are the posers, they’re goths if their aesthetic was hideous pink and rainbow puke and shit.
>>131076414actually their debut aged really well
>>131079916They’ve always been ear cancer.
>>131076414True, they sound so overproduced rubbish.
>>131080345They’re the music equivalent to slop like Twilight
>>131080143You're thinking of your favorite band
>>131079278>Grrrr! My Chemical Romance is shit too, the music equivalent of jingling keys!>Mmmmm.... Jingling keys....
>>131076716he has a great voice but he abuses it and treats it like shit so he constantly sounds like shit
>>131076485>>131076414emo was never a subculture, it was a branch of hardcore punk.everything that came out after 2004 is not "emo", let alone punk, just literal retards with a surface-level understanding of anything.
>>131079498I'm not white knighting for google, I think they're a monopolistic force and need to be broken up. nevertheless, whiteness is generally considered the default (at least in America) and so as a result when looking for images of white couples, people tend to search for "couples" or "married couples" instead of "white couples". race doesn't factor in until it becomes relevant to the topic at hand, which is why people don't typically mention the race of the couple until it's somehow relevant to people who aren't white. that's just how language works. You don't go around telling people you're "straight-married to a woman," you'd just say you're married and the assumption is that your marriage is to a woman unless you specify otherwise.
>>131078549>that 1x yo Zoomer that does this and does thatObnoxious fuckers
>>131076414late millennials love Panic! At The Disco, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and even deeper cuts like Mayday Parade and Escape The Fate without reservations.Nobody cares about your pseudointellectual tryhardism shit taste, faggot.
>>131082294There are three different "emo" genres:Emotional hardcore, a derivative of punk as you sayMidwest emo, a softer sort of alternative rockGothy emo shall we say (which is what the mainstream started conceiving of as emo), which was less about a sound and more about a vibe and, in fact, the subculture consuming it
>>131082260what are you talking about?he sounds the exact same except slightly older and less willing to put in full effort
>>131080539bodied that freak
>>131079916both A Fever You Can't Sweat Out and Pretty. Odd. are great albums, but mostly if you also include demos and alternate versions in the mix.
>>131079815you're thinking of "scene", out-of-touch neckbeard
>>131079278P!ATD and MCR were both excellent and the material remains excellent to this day.
>>131078788everyone who isn't a newfaggot knows this
>>131078513You're retarded, AFYCSO AND P.O. are sonically very distant from bog standard "pop punk".
>>131078526I have never once had the urge to listen a Paramore album and haven't had one to listen to an Evernescence album since I was a tween. I have never seen a value demonstration of the merit of pursuing such female-led bands.
Why do millenials overhype absolute trash like Panic at the disco, paramore, MCR, fallout boy and shit like that? Their shit music is the corniest overproduced piece of shit garbage I've ever heard. I cannot listen to them without dying of cringe because of how over dramatic and corny they are.
>>131085004here you go again with your zoomer revisionism.i've not studied "midwest emo", no idea what it's about or how those guys view themselves in a historical context. H&M emo (more accurate than gothy emo IMO) was the uniform at every school across the western world around 2006 - it's what actually killed emo - like with all things that die from cringe when they get normiefied - all people previously involved had to move on (to black metal, hipsterism, and so on).it's probably going to get as pointless a debate as the "real industrial" (70s/80s) vs "fake industrial" (wax trax/ministry/NIN) debate.
>>131085317Saying you can't even appreciate one (1) of their songs and don't even have any substantive criticisms of their particular style of music other than "overproduced" shows you aren't serious about music in any capacity despite larping as this patrician above it all.
>>131085317As someone who was a big theater kid in HS I think they're great BECAUSE they're over dramatic!
>>131085367>opens with complaining about "zoomer revisionism">professes total ignorance about what "midwest emo" isyou're an obnoxious poseur whom most likely nobody likes irl
>>131076414shit mogs gaydiohead
>>131085410you haven't lived anything in your entire life outside of tiktok, i feel too much pity to even insult you
Millenials = cringy theater kids who are very corny and melodramatic. They are also very naively happy and hopeful for the future.Zoomer = Based aloof and detached Chads who are Nihilistic and non chalant that understand that the real world sucks.
>>131085454I'm not a zoomer ya neckbearded faggot
>>131078216name one (1) scene here depicted which was actually good and positively impactful for having existed—influence must persist in-full todaynone of these mattered and their tastes were shit
>>131076414zoomers have the highest percentage of lgbtq in history and so they like gay music like emo
>>131076485>those two subcultures have essentially merged into one during in the 2010’sno they didn'tgoth stayed goth and "emo" was a fad that died out in the late 2000sand who says it was "lamer and gayer"? It was certainly fresher than continuing to suck off primitive 80s shit like it was essential to the identity rather than just enforced canon by forever-nostalgic boomers
>>131076637no they haven't
>>131076716Straight up revealing you don't know shit and are talking out of your ass; he's been making straight pop slop for over 15 years now.
>>131076755>I just don't get any hype for this band. They sucked.Because you haven't actually listened to them beyond a handful of uncurated tracks and think it's cool to just dismiss them out of pocket for that, when in reality their sound is enormously diverse unlike most bands and one track doesn't actually represent them much at all.
>>131077098I don't know who that is and I've never heard of him.And this just about doesn't sound like The Cure at all. Sounds more like The Killers and 2000s goth-adjacent alternative rock.
>>131076637fob are a lot better than panic desumcr were the best of that wavebut yeah its all variants of pop punk but more theatrical. barely anything in common with stuff in the 90s that was labeled "emo" like sunny day real estate or american football. shouldnt use the same label honestly but whatever
>>131077190KEEP ROLLIN' ROLLIN' ROLLIN' ROLLIN' (WHAT)
>>131077456>me i guess.yes
>>131077602it used to be my second favorite (as in, my favorite I had after my first favorite, I Write Sins) as a tween but ever since young adulthood I've found it revultingly sappy and switched to beloving I Constantly Thank God For Esteban, which Ryan has said is his own favorite.And now in 2026 anyone listening to it with fresh ears would call it incel-coded.
>>131085832yeah but I'm biased because it was in saints row 2
>>131086552>it was in saints row 2that's insane
>>131086568lol i first heard fall out boy and a7x on fucking madden football of all things
I write SINS not tragedies

>>131076414Zoomers have nostalgia for the teenage and college years of millennials that they themselves never actually experienced even though they hate millennials. Their entire worldview is based around appropriating and coccooning themselves in aesthetics, a generation of people who look at old Sears catalogs and Coke advertisements and think that's what life way. So they venerate emo and nu metal because those were visible genres with visible aesthetics during the younger days of the generation they despise yet yearn to steal from. And also because lots of millennials who grew up in that time loudly and rightly hated that stuff for being shit they feel they need to like it as a form of generational contrarianism.
Panic was always gimmick shit for quirky losers and I can deal with thatFall out boy fucking blows though. [Family guy it insists upon itself meme] Every song is the singer just jacking himself off with "clever" wordplay while the rest of the band twists their nipples across a bland pop punk alt rock landscape. Vomit emoji
>>131077602>>131077633My favorite Panic! At the Disco song is "Friend Is a Four Letter Word But So Is Cunt".
>>131089504boomers did the same shit with the 50s
>>131085610>detached and non chalantZoomers care DEEPLY about what others think of them. It's the result of being raised with social media, they view everything as performative and every action and opinion is meant to be judged by the rest of the world. They affect being detached and nonchalant BECAUSE they care way too much about what others think of them and the prospect of someone judging them feels them with such a deep existential dread that they succumb to severe irony poisoning because the most horrifying thing a zoomer can ever experience is someone calling them cringe so they have to make it look as if they don't care about anything. If you don't care, then nobody can say you're cringe and if they do then it totally doesn't affect you. All it really leads to is severe psychosis when their psyches inevitably collapse under the strain of having to affect detached irony 24/7.
>>131085135>everyone who isn't a newfaggot knows thisWell unfortunately, most of the people on here are newfags. Not even newfags, cause I'm a newfag because I started posting in 09. Most anons on here didn't start lurking, let alone posting until 2020. I saw someone call themselves an oldfag for being on here since 2017, that's how bad it's gotten.
>>131089504I was very much alive and conscious when sears still existed and desu I think sears was shit because I was a little kid and target had popcorn and pizza but then the millennials had to ruin everything and they swapped the target cafe out with starbucks so stfu bitch you guys literally ruined my teen years with your starcucks obsession that dogshit killed so many of my favorite places
>>131076485>Blaming Hot Topic for anything in the year of our lord two-thousand and twenty-sixwhew lad....what's next you gonna complain about president Bush and go play some MW2?
I remember when my hottopic sold music in the back now it's just disney princesses and marvel capeshit merch all shoved in the back to make room for all the funko pops in the front.
>>131090126In the early 2010s there was a very noticeable shift away from "traditional" mallgoth culture I guess you could say and it started becoming another Spencer's Gifts more or less. I remember when we moved away from mainly selling goth/emo clothing, band shirts and records to like Breaking Bad merch and dumb rage comic shit. The cute girls with colored hair that worked there around that same time also started to begin their transition from happy-go-lucky alt chicks to angry bitter Tumblr feminists. It was a real canary-in-the-coalmine looking back with hindsight> t. worked at Hot Topic in a major metro mall from 2010-2013
>>131089359Taylor is fundamentally a cosplaying trendhopper
>>131089504>lots of millennials who grew up in that time loudly and rightly hated that stuff for being shitno it was a minority of faggots like yourself who are principled contrarians and deranged enough to try to force revisionism like thisalternative rock like that wasn't mainstream, yes—are the normiest of normalfaggots now suddenly the arbiters of good taste for you? retard>calling anyone else a contrarian
>>131089528You have zero idea what you're talking about and nobody thinks you're cool for pretending to hate it.
