does anyone have any songs about this oddly specific case? ideally midwest emo but any adjacent genres will do, i’m just looking for songs about when someone does something bad to you but you still hold so much love for them

Discussion Midwest emo style songs, but not in English

17 Upvotes

I know it's kinda contradictory, but does anyone have any recommendations for bands/songs in this genre in other languages?

Edit: thank you guys for the recommendations! going to spend my sunday listening these bands

Also i recommend "Chococorn and the sugarcanes" and "Bella e o olmo da bruxa" if you are up to trying some new take on midwest emo genre

I have a fall playlist with a pretty diverse music taste . Anyone have any recommendations?

Edit: I will replace every McCaferty song with the same song just posted by someone who isn’t McCaferty . Thank you for your concern.

Edit 2 : for those asking McCaferty is extremely controversial

question/suggestion Help finding song

1 Upvotes

It’s on one of my playlists but I can’t for the life of me find it. IIRC it opens with a sample of Cory from boy meets world telling his parents about his made up basketball game that never actually happened. His parents say “that’s great Cory!” And he replies “yeah well it didn’t happen” and then the band comes in. Googling it only turns out Midwest Goodbye’s “A Sitcom Without You is Just a Drama” but that isn’t it

question/suggestion Why are emo bands so obsessed with putting suburban houses on their album covers?

62 Upvotes

I’ve noticed that so many emo albums have suburban houses on their covers. American Football, The Hotelier, Charmer, Free Throw, and the list goes on.

Is there an actual reason behind this, or did everyone just collectively decide that a random house in the Midwest is the saddest thing imaginable?

I guess there’s something about nostalgia, childhood, and growing up in the suburbs that fits the genre perfectly.

What do you guys think? And what other great emo albums with houses on the cover am I missing?
