"We have this phrase called Þetta reddast, which we say a lot, and it's just like the things will work out somehow. And I think that describes it quite well."We're live from Reykjavik for the Iceland Airwaves festival! Brian sits down with Icelandic experimental pop artist Lúpína to discuss the vibrant and creative local music scene. Lúpína shares why singing in her native Icelandic language feels so special and how her music, while not strictly "emo," is built entirely around emotion. She describes the unique DIY culture of Reykjavik , where gigs happen in record stores and bookshops , all driven by the national mentality of "Þetta reddast" (things will work out). We also discuss her use of vocal effects , her collaboration with Dadi Freyr , and why Icelandic music has such a unique, spacious, and electronic sound. Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:25] The most emo song Lúpína is listening to (Highasakite)[01:53] The special feeling of singing in Icelandic[02:53] The Reykjavik DIY Scene & "Þetta reddast"[04:51] Defining the Lúpína sound (Experimental Pop)[05:16] Why Icelandic music has so much "space"[07:03] Collaborating with Dottie Frere[08:15] Why is there so much talent in Iceland?[08:53] Where to find Lúpína Guest/Band Links:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2WBanXfuVc8n09WZIwhGGc?si=YiETkPVDRNagWrb1j1EFiQ&nd=1&dlsi=8d47dbe1c9ee4f7a Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lupina.is/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@eg.er.lupina/Official Website: https://lupinamusic.com/ Episode Highlights:"I wouldn't categorize my music as emo, but it all comes from emotions and it's all built around emotions.""I feel like there's something about singing in your native language that's just really special.""We have this phrase called Þetta reddast... it's just like the things will work out somehow."

"We have literally... been had a wake up call." Spencer Chamberlain of Underoath gets brutally honest about why the band can no longer ignore TikTok and social media.What does "emo" even mean? We're live on the tour bus with Spencer Chamberlain and Chris Dudley of Underoath to figure it out. We dive deep into the 20th anniversary of their foundational album, They're Only Chasing Safety , and how its success paved the way for their entire career.The band reflects on their early "hardcore band" roots , their complicated "Christian rock" label , and how old-school emo influences like Jimmy Eat World shaped their sound.More importantly, we connect that history to the present day.

Join us for a chat with Canadian emo-revival band Arms Length immediately following their set at the When We Were Young festival. We dive into what makes the band so inherently "emo," which they attribute to their "northern sadness" and the isolation of their Canadian upbringing. Despite living comfortable lives, their music channels the feelings of mental illness and translates it into a sound reminiscent of early 2000s bands. The band discusses the process of writing their latest, highly anticipated album, described by the hosts as "the most devastating album I've ever listened to". They reveal that the writing process was surprisingly therapeutic and fun , taking a few years to process life events and allowing the lyrics to be fully realized. We also get a look at their nerves and excitement for playing a major nostalgia festival like WWWY and their upcoming tour with Hot Mulligan and Drug Church, which they are taking extremely seriously. Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction and catching up with Arms Length at When We Were Young Fest [00:23] The most emo song they are listening to right now (Ethel Cain, The Used, Mount Eerie) [01:46] What makes Arms Length so emo: "Northern Sadness" and isolation [02:56] The therapeutic process of writing their "devastating" album [04:32] Preparing for the massive tour with Hot Mulligan and Drug Church [06:40] Performing for the first time at When We Were Young and the nervousnessSpotify: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/armslengthblues/?hl=enOfficial Website: https://armslengthmusic.com/Tour Dates: https://www.bandsintown.com/a/5931394-arm's-length?affil_code=js_armslengthmusic.com&app_id=js_armslengthmusic.com&came_from=242&utm_campaign=artist&utm_medium=web&utm_source=widgetJOIN THE CLUB!

"I don't think people think of us when they think of emo. Probably we covered 'Mamma Mia' by ABBA today. That was emo. Yeah."Join the "Meeting of the Brians" as we sit down with Brian Logan Dales of The Summer Set right after their set at the When We Were Young festival. Despite playing an acoustic show in Tucson and driving through the night to make it, Dales brings his trademark high energy. We discuss the band's sometimes-contested place in emo history, with Brian admitting they see themselves as an attitude-driven pop-rock band with "one foot in, one foot out." He gives a look behind the scenes of their latest album, Meet Me In The Record Store, a passion project five years in the making that they treated like their "first album all over again". This latest work reflects what The Summer Set sounds like as an adult band, writing about everything from girls to existential crises. Dales talks about the process of letting the songs "fine wine" as demos for years , and how they balanced the setlist at the nostalgia festival between fan-favorite older songs and the new material. Find out which song Dales played on an overnight drive, and hear about the time he mistakenly played a Puddle of Mudd cover at Emo Nitet.

"I think that honestly, it was the only place that I felt safe expressing myself at such a, like a level of emotional vulnerability. Just vulnerability in general, even with the physicality of it." Emo Social Club connects the Myspace era to today's waves by exploring the music that defined us and the emotions that still resonate. In this powerful episode, we sit down with the influential post-hardcore band Letlive to talk about the remastered edition of 'The Blackest Beautiful' and their reunion shows. The band discusses the intense physicality and emotional release of their performances, emphasizing that their music has always been a safe, collective space for genuine expression. We also talk about the challenge of fighting commodification in art and the importance of paving the road for the new emo bands of the revival scene.

"We were just trying to talk about, like, evolution and man's inhumanity to man, and I don't really ever think we got to the core, the bedrock of emo experience." In this episode of Emo Social Club, we chat with Brian of the legendary punk band Bad Religion about the band's enduring legacy and their connection to the emo and pop punk scene. Even with a focus on heavier topics like evolution and "man's inhumanity to man," Brian acknowledges the unintentional emo history all over their sound. He shares that their influence on the genre was never a plan but a product of being in the right place at the right time. Bad Religion's body of work has inspired people cross genre, which is why they get invited to both massive emo revival festivals and "insane black metal kill your mom festivals". Brian also gives his thoughts on the current punk environment, stressing the importance of new bands making their own thing and the pure joy of participating in music. It's a fantastic conversation connecting the original California punk scene to today's waves.Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction: Talking with Brian from Bad Religion[00:09] Brian on his enjoyment of emo in small doses[00:20] The most emo song he's listening to right now: "Drink Deep" by Rites of Spring[00:34] Why Bad Religion is considered emo—the unintentional foundation[01:01] Feeling honored to be invited into the current emo and pop-punk wave[01:20] Playing both huge emo festivals and "insane black metal" shows[02:05] Bad Religion's legacy: Playing good songs and genuinely loving to play[02:30] Not wanting to see old bands that are "phoning it in"[03:22] Why the current punk environment doesn't need Bad Religion's help or advice[03:41] Seeing wonderful, intense, new bands like Doubt and Dry Socket[04:28] Touring with The Offspring next yearBand Links:Spotify: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/badreligionband/?hl=enOfficial Website: https://badreligion.com/Tour Dates: https://badreligion.com/tourJOIN THE CLUB!

"I gotta listen to a little bit of Zen... I need to balance it. I'm like, cry a little bit. I don't know."Live from the middle of the desert, we're hanging out with Taylor Acorn right after her massive set at When We Were Young Festival 2025! Taylor was shocked to see how many people chose her set over scene legends Mayday Parade, who were playing at the same time. We even broke the news to her that she has her own billboard out on the Las Vegas strip.Instead of a high-energy pump-up playlist, Taylor walks us through her pre-show ritual, which involves getting Zen and finding balance by listening to Counting Crows—a stark contrast to the energy drink she's usually drinking at the same time. She opens up about what makes her music so emo, citing her longtime struggles with mental health and her passion for writing about her experiences to help others feel less alone. It's this authenticity that resonates with so many fans. We also get the details on her brand new record, which is available now!Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:07] Playing When We Were Young & Competing with Mayday Parade[00:39] The Surprise Billboard on the Vegas Strip[01:04] Pre-Show Rituals: Getting Zen with Counting Crows[03:45] Her Upcoming New Record & Where to Find It Guest/Band Links:Spotify: [https://open.spotify.com/artist/1A0WloDoRE88uUwo3wensY]Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/tayloracornmusic/]Official Website: [https://www.tayloracorn.com/] Episode Highlights:"Mayday Parade was playing at the same time.

"What makes Her Leather Jacket so emo?"We caught up with Her Leather Jacket at When We Were Young Festival 2025 to talk about their incredible journey, from honing their sound to collaborating with legends of the scene. The band discusses how mentorship from Aaron Gillespie of Underoath completely opened the door for them to be more vulnerable in their lyrics and songwriting. This collaboration was crucial in developing their sound and led to their latest single, "Death Train".The band shares the story behind the track, which features an iconic appearance from Kellin Quinn of Sleeping With Sirens. It was actually Aaron Gillespie's idea to bring Kellin onto the song, and they were ecstatic when he loved it and agreed to be a part of it. Hearing the final mix with Kellin's unmistakable voice was an "unbelievable" moment for the band. They also touch on the bands they were most excited to see at the fest, including The Maine and Don Broco, and answer the ultimate question: what's the most emo song they're listening to right now?Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction at When We Were Young Fest 2025[00:21] Bands they're excited to see at the festival[00:42] The most emo songs they're listening to right now[01:25] What makes Her Leather Jacket's music so emo?[01:43] The influence of mentor Aaron Gillespie on their songwriting[02:15] The story behind their single "Death Train" ft.

As their landmark album All That We Needed celebrates its 20th anniversary, the band reflects on their definition of "emo"—pop punk songs written about girls —and how that shaped their sound. We get the details on their upcoming anniversary tour with We The Kings and a special front-to-back album show in San Francisco this December.

"It's not a venue called the Loading dock. It's literally the loading dock."Live from When We Were Young Festival, we're hanging out with Rob Damiani, frontman of the incredible Don Broco. Rob takes us back to one of the most memorable shows of their career at The Loading Dock in Salt Lake City—a venue that is, quite literally, a loading dock. We get into the band's surprisingly emo history, from their early promo photos with the classic emo fringe to their first band name, "Summer Fall," which, as a British band, didn't quite make sense. Rob also discusses the new music they've been releasing, confirming that a brand new record is finished and set for an early 2026 release. We compare the vibrant energy of the current US alternative scene to the struggles facing small venues back in the UK, and how the Myspace era of DIY tours shaped the band they are today.

Genre evolution and emotional authenticity[06:10] Growing up in the first wave alongside Lifetime and the New Jersey scene[06:42] Current tour with Jer and upcoming East Coast datesEpisode Highlights:"We mixed it up in the blender. Essentially the core of the song is about personal power, and everyone has that personal power. Sometimes it's hard to recognize the impact that your energy has in the world.""I'm so grateful now and we're having a great time. It's actually an amazing accomplishment that we still like each other honestly and enjoy being together. I think that's sort of part of the magic dust of the Bouncing Souls.""Good rock and roll and good music has emotion. In the 90s, when the word emo first came out, it was attributed to almost a completely different sounding style. Ten years later, everyone's like, 'they're emo now.' The definition of it is very loose. If you feel emotion, rock and roll music, whatever it is with guitars or without guitars, you feel emotion." JOIN THE CLUB!

"I have to psych myself up for it every f***ing show... what if somebody f**ing k*lls me? I have kids, you know what I mean?"At Riot Fest 2025, we caught up with Dan Campbell from The Wonder Years for an intimate conversation about the band's 20-year journey in the emo and pop-punk scene. Campbell reflects on the emotional weight behind their songwriting process, discussing how The Greatest Generation continues to resonate with fans years later. The conversation takes a powerful turn as Dan opens up about the very real consequences of the band's outspoken support for Palestine and trans rights - from death threats to lost opportunities - and why he continues to speak out despite the fear. We also explore the band's upcoming No Closer to Heaven remix, their fall arena tour with A Day to Remember and Yellowcard, and Campbell's touching tribute to late booking agent Dave Shapiro through Kevin Devine's cover of "Whole of the Moon."Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:00] Most emo song Dan's listening to - Kevin Devine's "Whole of the Moon" tribute[01:25] What makes The Wonder Years so emo - honesty and self-understanding through songwriting[01:56] The Greatest Generation's lasting impact and ranking Wonder Years albums[02:44] No Closer to Heaven remix announcement - game-changing for the album[03:36] Free Palestine and trans rights speech - the fear and consequences[05:41] Warped Tour main stage activism and community support[06:05] Building community and putting newer bands on[06:28] Fall arena tour with A Day to Remember and YellowcardEpisode Highlights:"I just write... to try to better understand myself.

"Somebody had to f***ing do it" - The Paradox on being representation pioneers in the emo/pop-punk sceneAt Riot Fest 2025, we sat down with The Paradox, the rising pop-punk band that's redefining what representation looks like in alternative music. From their formation in July 2024 to landing a major tour with All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Four Year Strong, and The Cab, their journey has been nothing short of meteoric. The band gets real about being Black artists in a predominantly white genre, discussing how they're creating the representation they needed in high school. We explore their debut album NSFW, their influences ranging from Taking Back Sunday to Neck Deep, and why being "crybabies" who tell each other "I love you" is actually their greatest strength. This conversation bridges the classic emo era with today's scene, showing how The Paradox is both honoring the past and pushing the genre forward.Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction and the most emo songs they're listening to[01:06] What makes The Paradox so emo - embracing emotions as men[01:53] Discussion of their new album NSFW[02:38] Their first show at Concord and covering Taking Back Sunday[02:55] The band's meteoric rise since forming in 2024[03:15] Upcoming tour with All Time Low, Mayday Parade, and more[03:56] Small bands to watch: Custodians, Zealand, Super Sometimes, Barry Hendricks, Kawaii AF[04:40] Being Black artists in pop-punk and creating necessary representation[05:51] Where to find The Paradox and tour informationEpisode Highlights:"We're very emotional men... One thing I love about us is we're very in touch with our emotions. We tell each other we love each other, give each other hugs... little kiss goodnight.""With that, I think being able to have representation or give representation for people is awesome. Like one of my favorite comments is when people are like, 'Yo, I needed you guys in high school.'""There's not many of us, you know, and all we want to do is just create more of that." JOIN THE CLUB!

What started as a routine property history search for a Louisville listing led me down a rabbit hole of vintage newspaper clippings, culminating in an unexpected and fascinating journey through the early nudist (or naturist) movement in Kentucky and Indiana.You'll hear the bizarre headline that sparked it all—“Bee Intrudes as 2 Louisvillians Enter Ranks of Nudist Royalty”—and meet the surprisingly compelling couple at the heart of it. We cover the founding of Zoro Nature Camp in Indiana in the 1930s, its battles against public scandal and legal scrutiny, and how it became a hub for naturist conventions and moral high ground.We follow the story of Bernard and Dorothy Harding, a deaf couple from Louisville who lived fascinating lives full of hardship, resilience, and—briefly—nudist royalty. Plus, we explore how lawmakers in Kentucky reacted to the idea of nudist colonies with 20-foot wall requirements, licensing fees, and statewide panic.This episode has it all:
