126. Chemical Sun: Butt Rock, Midwest Emo and Millennial Music | Emo Kids Anonymous

Welcome to EKA126! Today we're joined by Chemical Sun out of Springfield Missouri. This band blends the best of early millennial rock music. Post hardcore, pop punk, emo, even a little butt rock. We talk about the bands origins and writing process as well as the difficulties of parenting (sorry Devon, kinda bit your whole thing). Kevin also owns a merch company that prints garments for many friends of the show, including halftimeshow, Thoughts on Bowling and Dear Cincinnati. We talk about these bands along with their local pal Derek Berry of TRSH.___________________________________________________________With multiple new episodes every week, Emo Kids Anonymous is your home for all things emo and everything else.
