In this episode we discuss the genre known as emo, a genre that started when a bunch of angry punk kids realized they were getting a bit too angry and needed to explore a new emotion, sadness. Emotional hardcore eventually morphed into the whiny, heartfelt, pop-punky genre that we know and love today. This explode explores emo's journey from the mid-80s to the present. So grab your tissues and tune in..to your feelings
