The Wrecks Live at Warped Tour | Emo Social Club

from The Emo Social Club Podcast · host Brian Rowe, Lizzie Baumgartner, Emo Social Club

"When I'm writing...It's so detached. You can be wrong for an hour, and you can close your eyes and think for an hour, and it's for you to think of what's good. If I spent that hour thinking about what someone else might think about that thing, that's a wasted hour." This week, Brian and Lizzie are catch-up after Vans Warped Tour in Washington, D.C. and release the final interview from the fest with the alt-act, The Wrecks.  The Wrecks for a candid, chaotic, and laugh-out-loud conversation on our signature red couch. From a heated debate over whether Limp Bizkit qualifies as "emo" to deep-dives into their musical evolution, this interview covers it all. The band gets real about their songwriting process, their favorite touring memories, and the absolute reality of navigating the current music landscape.  "All these bands and artists who have way more than us—way more followers, way more monthly listeners—are selling 50 tickets or canceling their tour because it's not selling. And we go out there and we fucking rip and our fans are there, and they're screaming every word... It's fucking awesome." "I feel like I got into the scene—I'd show up in my skinny jeans, my studded belt, my purple and black striped sweatshirt. My sister would straighten my hair. I felt like that was the moment where I started really getting into like, this scene. That's the scene."

Hosts Brian and Lizzie catch up after Lizzie’s recent trip to Vans Warped Tour and include the final interview from that fest stop with The Wrecks. The band sharing their current emo music rotations—featuring nods to Hot Mulligan, Emperor X, and Petey—before descending into a hilariously spirited argument about the definition of emo music genres. The guys reflect on their early inspirations, their growth from their Favorite Liar days, and the detached, solitary mindset required to write truly authentic music. They discuss the impact of "TikTokification" on new artists, the bands they'd love to open for (like 5 Seconds of Summer and The Driver Era), and how grateful they are for their dedicated live fanbase.
