Hoy os traemos una de las bandas de Rock más importantes de la década de los 00s, grupo que marcó a toda una generación, sentó las bases y popularizó un movimiento que fue amado por muchos y odiado por otros tantos, que es el Emo. My Chemical Romance es una banda que se forma en el año 2002 en Nueva Jersey, Estados Unidos. Actualmente los miembros son Gerard Way como vocalista y líder de la banda, Matt Way, su hermano, al bajo, Frank Iero a los coros y la guitarra rítmica y Ray ToroToro como guitarrista principal y a los coros. Tienen una gran inspiración en bandas de Emo y Post-Hardcore como Thursday, Fugazi, The Used, Glassjaw pero por otra parte también de bandas y artistas clásicos como Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Queen o The Smashing Pumpkins que fue la banda que más les inspiró en sus sonido de Rock Alternativo. Su primer álbum 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love' fue publicado en el año 2002, y los colocó en la escena underground del emo siendo el disco con el sonido más crudo y violento de la banda. En 2004 lanzan 'Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge', un disco más melódico y con letras sobre adolescencia y que marcó el devenir de la banda. Le sigue el disco del que os hablamos hoy que es T'he Black Parade' del año 2006, donde la banda alcanzó éxito internacional. Y su discografía principal cierra, hasta el momento con 'Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys' del año 2010. En el año 2015 la banda entra en un periodo de hiatus y retorna en 2022 con nuevos conciertos y material.
This week on The Metal Maniacs Podcast (Ep 157), host Jay Ingersoll sits down with three‑fourths of heavy post‑hardcore breakout Dog Skull — Brad Jahr (bass), Jackson Filion (guitar), and Chance Reyes (drums) — to talk about life on the road, the grind of DIY touring, and carving a modern sound rooted in underground grit. With Jack (vocals) away this round, the band opens up about everything from their East Coast Tour (4/1 – 4/10) to the writing sessions behind one of Michigan's freshest heavy releases.Dog Skull has been turning heads across the Midwest with their fusion of raw emotion, groove‑driven riffs, and punk energy — a sound fans of Helmet, Bad Religion, and Trapped Under Ice will instantly connect with. Recorded and produced with the care of veterans who know “clean doesn't mean soft,” their self‑titled LP (released July 17, 2025) cements them as a serious force in the heavy underground movement.We dig deep into the band's inception and influences, how each member contributes to the crisp production and tight live chemistry, and what keeps them motivated to chase authenticity in a saturated heavy scene. Expect laughs, road stories, and insight into how these guys balance brutal honesty and unshakable fun in their songwriting.

"I would argue that Sempiternal is their re-debut album. It pivoted to something that's a little bit more poppy for the mainstream general audience... it very much was a rebranding of them in a way." This week, Brian and Lizzie dissect Bring Me The Horizon's pivotal 2013 album, Sempiternal. They discuss the addition of Jordan Fish, Oli Sykes' shift to clean vocals, and how the band laid the blueprint for modern metalcore. A decade after its release, Bring Me The Horizon's Sempiternal remains a monumental record in emo history and modern metalcore. Brian and Lizzie sit down to review the album that transformed BMTH from a raw deathcore act into global rock superstars. They analyze the massive impact of Jordan Fish joining the band, bringing cinematic synths and EDM influences that completely reshaped their sonic landscape. The hosts break down Oli Sykes' evolution into clean, Linkin Park-inspired vocals and review standout tracks like 'Can You Feel My Heart', 'Shadow Moses', and 'Sleepwalking'. From the pop punk level of catchy hooks embedded in their heavy breakdowns to the nuanced electronic soundscapes that paved the way for the current 'baddiecore' movement, this episode covers it all. Did Sempiternal single-handedly save a stale scene, or are there valid critiques of its straightforward lyrics? Tune in to hear the Emo Social Club's final verdict on this definitive release.

„Ist das der Tiefpunkt — oder schon der Moment danach?“In der neuen Folge vom TuneFish Musiknerd Podcast sprechen wir mit Hansol von der Emopunk- und Harcore-Band Shoreline über das neue Album Is This the Low Point or the Moment After? — und landen dabei ziemlich schnell mitten in einer großen Unterhaltung über Erwachsenwerden, Selbstzweifel, Identität, das Älterwerden in Szenen, die früher nur aus jungen Leuten bestanden, und die Erkenntnis, dass Coming-of-Age vermutlich niemals endet. Wir reden darüber, wie es ist, jahrelang „die Supportband“ gewesen zu sein, warum Hardcore- und Punkpublikum manchmal die offensten Menschen überhaupt sind — und manchmal einfach nur endlich den Headliner sehen wollen. Es geht um Touren mit Boysetsfire, Iron Roses, Lagwagon, Silverstein und Boston Manor, um Generationenwechsel innerhalb der Szene und um die Frage, warum junge Emo-/Hardcore-Bands heute oft ganz anders funktionieren als die „Legacy Bands“ der 90er und frühen 2000er. Natürlich sprechen wir auch intensiv über die neue Shoreline-Platte selbst:über emotionale Erschöpfung, über das Gefühl, ständig zwischen Zusammenbruch und Neuanfang zu hängen, über die Einflüsse von Touché Amoré, über kurze Songs, die trotzdem komplett wirken sollen, und darüber, warum manche Melodien nur ein einziges Mal auftauchen dürfen, obwohl andere Bands daraus fünf Refrains gebaut hätten. Außerdem erzählt Hansol von den absurden Realitäten moderner Tourkultur:von Shows vor Menschen, die eigentlich nur Bier trinken und alte Fat-Wreck-Bands hören wollen, von jüngeren Publikumsgruppen, die plötzlich jedes Wort fühlen, und von der seltsamen Erkenntnis, irgendwann selbst nicht mehr „die jungen Kids“ innerhalb der Szene zu sein. Dazu gibt's Geschichten über Knocked Loose als Metallica-Support, über DIY-Strukturen, über Szene-Bubbles und über die Frage, ob man sich jemals wirklich „fertig verstanden“ hat. Und weil das natürlich noch nicht reicht, driften wir zwischendurch wie immer völlig ab:Lars philosophiert über Supportbands auf Stadtfesten, Markus erklärt, warum Coming-of-Age mit 50 immer noch nicht abgeschlossen ist, wir verlieren uns in Musikhochschulen, Podcasts, Anwälten, Bots, Musikrechten und der Erkenntnis, dass Streamingplattformen Musik inzwischen offenbar nur noch als „Objekte“ betrachten. Im StammFish-Teil danach geht es außerdem noch weiter mit:Community-Feedback von Marion, philosophischen Diskussionen über Notizblöcke für Podcasts, absurden Geschäftsideen rund um TuneFish-Merch, Konzertplänen, Musikindustrie-Wahnsinn und natürlich unseren neuen „Hausaufgaben“ — inklusive ausführlicher Nerd-Diskussionen über Songlängen, Albumdramaturgie und die ewige Frage, wann ein Song eigentlich wirklich zu Ende erzählt ist. Kurz gesagt:Eine Folge über Musik, über Szenen, über das Älterwerden, über emotionale Zustände zwischen Hoffnung und Erschöpfung. Und vielleicht auch ein bisschen darüber, wie man versucht weiterzumachen, obwohl niemand wirklich weiß, wie Leben eigentlich funktioniert......RUBRIK: Die HausaufgabeLars und Markus schlagen sich gegenseitig ein Album vor, das dann subjektiv auseinandergenommen wird.Wir vergeben Punkte zwischen 1 (mies) und 10 (genial).

"It's been a slow burn. It's not like a commemoration of a time that we blew up... It's just an album that became more successful later on." Microwave sits down with Brian and Lizzie at the Salt Shed during their Much Love 10-Year Anniversary Tour. The band dives into their slow-burn rise to success following the 2022 Story So Far tour, the hilarious reality of crashing in Hot Mulligan's dorm lobby, and why they relate more to Jimmy Eat World than Midwest emo. Plus, rapid-fire reviews of new releases from The Maine, Enter Shikari, Bilmuri, and more. Microwave is in the hot seat this week as Brian and Lizzie sit down with Nathan, Tyler, Tito, and Luke live from the Salt Shed to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of Much Love. Despite what their Wikipedia page says, the guys aren't actually influenced by Midwest emo, and they break down tracing their true sound back to Jimmy Eat World rather than Cap'n Jazz. They discuss what it has been like to watch Much Love explode in popularity after their 2022 run with The Story So Far, validating their slow-burn success in the scene. The band also reminisces about the unglamorous realities of early DIY touring, highlighted by a hilarious 2016 story where they slept on the floor of a freshman dorm lobby while Hot Mulligan's roommate vacuumed around them. Following the interview, Lizzie gets sassy as she and Brian dive into rapid-fire reviews of the latest tracks dropping ahead of the spring and summer tours, sharing their unfiltered thoughts on new music from The Maine, Bilmuri, Enter Shikari, and more. "In 2016 on The Wonder Years tour, we stayed at Chris from Hot Mulligan's freshman dorm. We assumed it was like a house, and we showed up and were sleeping in the lobby. I woke up to somebody just vacuuming right next to me." "We weren't robbed of any of the experiences of developing a band. Some people, their s*** blows up when they're eighteen, and then they have the pressure of having to follow that up and do something just as good immediately." "We kinda got grouped in with bands that are more directly influenced by Cap'n Jazz and American Football and Midwest emo. Our influence is more like Jimmy Eat World type stuff." JOIN THE CLUB!

In this episode of Caught on the Mike, I sit down with Shane Told—frontman of Silverstein and host of Lead Singer Syndrome. We dive into Shane's journey from the early days of the post-hardcore scene to building one of the most consistent and enduring bands of the last two decades. He opens up about how his role as a frontman has evolved, what keeps the band creatively driven after 20+ years, and how their latest double album, Antibloom / Pink Moon, came together during a transformative stretch in Joshua Tree. We also get into the Camp Screamo Tour with Story of the Year—why it's taken this long to happen, what fans can expect from the setlist, and how the band is balancing nostalgia with pushing forward. Plus, Shane breaks down what podcasting has given him through Lead Singer Syndrome that he doesn't get from being on stage—and how those conversations have reshaped his perspective as an artist. If you've followed Silverstein from the beginning or you're just discovering them now, this episode is a deep dive into longevity, evolution, and staying passionate about your craft. #Silverstein #ShaneTold #LeadSingerSyndrome #PostHardcore #Emo #CampScreamo #StoryOfTheYear #AlternativeMusic #MusicPodcast #CaughtOnTheMike

"Well, you've been waiting this long for a white guy to explain a Mexican band to you. It's very upsetting for all involved." In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, we're tackling one of the biggest blind spots in Lizzie's scene history: Pierce The Veil. While Brian was championing the band's "Mexicore" roots and heavy guitar work, Lizzie was busy dodging the 2010s Tumblr fangirl hype. "In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, we're tackling one of the biggest blind spots in Lizzie's scene history: Pierce The Veil. While Brian was championing the band's ""Mexicore"" roots and heavy guitar work, Lizzie was busy dodging the 2010s Tumblr fangirl hype and listening to Hollywood Undead instead. Now that PTV is gearing up for their massive 2025 tour with Sleeping With Sirens, it's time for a proper retrospective. Brian tests Lizzie with five defining songs spanning from A Flair for the Dramatic to The Jaws of Life. We discuss Vic Fuentes' distinct vocals, the aggressive perfection of King For A Day, and whether the band's theatrical energy actually works for a first-time listener today. Plus: The hilarious irony of a white guy enthusiastically explaining a Mexican-American band to a Mexican woman, and why the scene desperately needed non-white representation during the Warped Tour era. Tracks Discussed In This Episode: • King For A Day • So Far So Fake • Besitos • Yeah Boy and Dollface • Bulletproof Love "Well, you've been waiting this long for a white guy to explain a Mexican band to you. It's very upsetting for all involved." "I want my anxiety to make me feel like I'm constantly under attack. If I don't feel that I am always playing a DDR game, I don't know what to do with life." "Me always not listening to white men. More for me." JOIN THE CLUB!

In this episode, Popko sits down with Logan from Scarlett O'Hara for a high-energy, no-BS conversation about music, identity, and staying real in today's scene.

"We do not look like the bands that we sound like, and we don't sound like the bands that we look like, which is what I'm kinda going for." Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait boards the tour bus to talk active rock, the rising cost of touring, and the operational reality of paid VIPs. Recorded live from their tour bus outside Allstate Arena, Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait joins Lizzie right before opening for I Prevail and Three Days Grace. Lee breaks down the band's aesthetic and sonic shift from 2010s scene core toward active rock, a move that recently culminated in a No. 1 Billboard Mainstream Rock hit for the band. He details the importance of bringing theatricality back to heavy music with their "Devotion Ceremonies," drawing direct inspiration from early-2000s acts like My Chemical Romance and his love for Hawthorne Heights' Skeletons album. The interview also tackles the harsh modern realities of being in a touring band. Lee provides a candid look at why the Warped Tour era of free meet-and-greets is over, explaining how paid VIP packages have become an operational necessity for bands facing skyrocketing merch cuts and travel costs. Back in the studio, Brian and Lizzie debate the cultural weight of "divorced dad rock" in relation to Three Days Grace, and recap the talking points for their upcoming panel exploring emo and comic book history at C2E2. "I think so much of it is our worlds are now meshing. Getting to form our own way has been really cool because I love being theatrical. I grew up being a theater kid, so of course it's gonna shine no matter what." "We grew up going to Warped Tour and standing in line and meeting our favorite bands for free. There was never a paid wall... Now I'm charging for VIP, and it's hard because paid VIP pays for us to actually be on tour because it is so much more expensive to be on tour now than it ever has been." "Those are the bands I grew up listening to... I loved lore-driven bands, and I think that's something that I really wanted to focus on. I want my own version of that." JOIN THE CLUB!

The Warped Tour, launched in 1995, became a defining force for emo, pop punk, and post-hardcore music, propelling bands like Blink-182, Green Day, and My Chemical Romance into the spotlight. It fostered a sense of community and DIY ethos, influencing youth culture and offering a vital platform for emerging artists. Though it ended in 2018, its legacy endures, inspiring new generations of musicians and fans.
Explore the roots and rise of screamo and post-hardcore music, from 1980s pioneers like Fugazi to Midwest screamo innovators such as Saetia and Orchid. Discover the genres' distinct sounds—intense vocals, dynamic shifts, and DIY ethos—and how grassroots communities, indie labels, and modern streaming have kept the scene vibrant and influential across punk, indie, and pop.
"You're on stage. You're playing shows. You're going on tours, and they're like, you haven't paid your dues. It's like, I'm doing it right now. This is the dues." Drop Dead, Gorgeous is back. After a 15-year hiatus, frontman Daniel "Stills" Stillman joins Brian and Lizzie to talk about their highly anticipated return, dropping the new EP Sink Your Teeth, and gearing up for Warped Tour. Stills takes us back to 2006, explaining the raw, meticulous production behind In Vogue and what it was actually like blowing up on Myspace as teenagers. We talk about the very real pushback they got from traditional hardcore bands for wearing tight pants, why they skipped the "paying your dues" phase, and a wild story about a lost Skrillex remix that never saw the light of day. We also get into the current state of songwriting and the uncomfortable reality of AI tools pushing pop artists to either innovate or be replaced. "We were in that phase of wearing tight jeans, girl pants... we were kind of in a heavier scene, and so there was still hardcore bands that weren't really into that at all. We got a lot of pushback and hate because of that." "AI highlighted to me how formulated pop music actually is. And I think what it's forcing actual big pop artists to do now is to push the boundaries and mix it up more, because if they don't, they will be replaced by AI." "You're on stage, you're playing shows, you're going on tours, and they're like, you haven't paid your dues. It's like, I'm doing it right now. This is the dues. I'm here today to do that."

On this week's episode of Caught on the Mike, I sit down with Kevin and Mike of Great Danes — a project built on experience, reinvention, and unfinished business. Longtime fans will remember Kevin and Mike from their earlier chapter in Halifax, the melodic pop-punk/emo band that helped soundtrack the mid-2000s alternative scene with high-energy anthems and emotionally charged songwriting. After years of growth, perspective, and life beyond that era, they've reemerged with Great Danes — a band that feels more refined, more intentional, and creatively fearless. In this conversation, we talk about what it really means to evolve as artists, how their Halifax years shaped them, and why Great Danes isn't about chasing nostalgia — it's about building something that reflects who they are right now. From touring memories to the creative risks that come with starting fresh, this one hits on legacy, growth, and the hunger to keep making meaningful music.

In this episode of B-Side Breakdown, Brett Johnson sits down with David Jarnstrom of Minneapolis post-hardcore stalwarts Dead History to talk about “Through the Shadows,” a standout track from the band's 2025 album Departures. Built around an initial guitar idea from Matt Rezac, the song took a long and winding path to completion—nearly left behind before emerging as one of the record's most spacious, groove-driven moments. David walks through the tension between restraint and power in the song's arrangement, the intentional use of space and feel, and why it occupies such a unique place on the album.The conversation also touches on the song's impressionistic lyrics, personal interpretations shaped by life in post-George Floyd Minneapolis, and the sense of endurance and rebuilding that runs quietly beneath the surface.With Departures likely marking a closing chapter for Dead History, this episode reflects on creative maturity, community, and seeing something through—even when it's hard.Follow Dead History:https://deadhistorymn.bandcamp.com/https://www.instagram.com/deadhistorybandThanks for supporting B-Side Breakdown — where the song is just the start of the story.Brett JohnsonHost, B-Side Breakdownhttps://www.patreon.com/c/bsidebreakdownhttps://www.instagram.com/bsidebreakdownhttps://linktr.ee/bsidebreakdown#DavidJarnstrom #DeadHistory #ThroughTheShadows #Departures #MinneapolisMusic #PostHardcore #Shoegaze #CreativeProcess #BSideBreakdown #BrettJamesJohnson #MusicPodcast
In this episode of B-Side Breakdown, Brett Johnson talks with members of Too Late, But Still about “Feedback City,” a standout track from their 2025 EP Night Songs.The conversation traces how the song came together organically in the room, shaped less by traditional structure and more by evolving movements and shared instincts. Lyrically, “Feedback City” pulls directly from lived experience—tour memories, found objects, small personal details, and moments of humor and reflection that give the song its emotional weight.The band discusses their collaborative approach, their preference for short, focused releases over full-length albums, and why each song feels like a Polaroid of a specific moment in time.The episode also touches on creative freedom, resisting algorithm-driven expectations, and how trust between band members allows the music to unfold naturally without forcing it.Follow Too Late, But Still:https://toolatebutstill.bandcamp.com/https://instagram.com/toolatebutstillThanks for supporting B-Side Breakdown — where the song is just the start of the story.Brett JohnsonHost, B-Side Breakdownhttps://www.patreon.com/c/bsidebreakdownhttps://www.instagram.com/bsidebreakdownhttps://linktr.ee/bsidebreakdown#FeedbackCity #TooLateButStill #bsidebreakdown #threecrowsclub #brettjamesjohnson #NightSongs #minneapolismusic #posthardcore #musicpodcast

"We've always had the same kind of values in why we're doing this. That alignment, I think, helps the steadiness and longevity... The music comes first. Music is about itself. It's not, at least primarily a means to make a living." Dustin Kensrue of Thrice on the shared values that have kept the band's lineup intact for 25 years. He discusses their unique writing process using Asana and 400+ voice memos, and how re-recording a classic album influenced their new sound. For over two decades, Thrice has been a constant—a pillar of the post-hardcore scene that has not only evolved with each album but has kept its original four members intact. We're joined by frontman Dustin Kensrue to discuss how they've managed one of the most incredible feats in rock music: staying together. Dustin details the band's practical creative process, revealing how they use project management tools like Asana to organize hundreds of voice memos into the powerful songs fans know and love. He also explains how revisiting their classic album *The Artist in the Ambulance* allowed them to reconnect with old instincts in a fresh way, directly influencing their new material. This is a conversation about legacy, integrity, and what it takes to put the music first, always."We've always had the same kind of values in why we're doing this. And that alignment, I think, helps the steadiness and longevity... The music comes first.""I have no idea how we would write a song to work on TikTok... it's just not on our minds. There's enough juice flowing... the hardest thing is narrowing down what ideas we wanna chase because there's so many.""Doing both of those [re-recordings] was a process of kind of reintegrating a lot of old instincts and ways of thinking... those instincts can be reappropriated by us in a fresh way, that feels authentic and organic and not forced."
