However, since the emo genre is constantly shifting, growing, and
changing, we weren't content to just leave the Emo Hall of Fame with
just twenty inductees. Instead, on the most recent edition of Keep Calm
and Carry On, Madison and I crafted a second list of twenty nominees.
These nominees span the entire history of emo music, from the bands that
grew it in the Midwest in the 90s like American Football and Mineral,
to the mainstream wave of the mid-2000s with My Chemical Romance and
Taking Back Sunday, to the best bands of today's recent revival (whether
or not you agree with the term). You can see our second class of
inductees:
2. Love Letter Type Writer-Mineral
3. Never Meant- American Football
4. You Won’t Know- Brand New
5. Existentialism On Prom Night- Straylight Run
6. Cute Without the “E” (Cut From The Team)- Taking Back Sunday
7. Rum Is For Drinking, Not For Burning- Senses Fail
8. Let’s Talk About Your Hair- Have Mercy
9. Fate- Lydia
10. The Taste of Ink- The Used
11. Welcome To The Black Parade- My Chemical Romance
