Emo Isn't Dead: The History, DIY Ethos, and Future of the Emo Revival with Andrew Sacher

"Emo is not alive because the old bands are playing their old songs at When We Were Young Festival. That’s a cool thing, but it’s not dead because there have been two more generations, or more; keeping it alive." We dive deep into why "emo" was once treated as a dirty word, how underground bands rebuilt the scene from basement shows to 5,000-capacity venues, and the crucial responsibility established bands have to pay it forward to the next generation. Plus, we debate what separates the 4th and 5th waves, the role of nostalgia in modern festivals, and our ultimate dream lineup.
