Description

A vivid and breathless oral history of emo's takeover from 1999 to 2008, featuring My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, Panic! At the Disco, Taking Back Sunday, Jimmy Eat World, and Dashboard Confessional. In this authoritative account, music journalist Chris Payne recounts the rise of the emo subculture, from its early days in New Jersey to its mainstream explosion. Through interviews with over 150 people, including the scene's biggest bands, producers, and managers, Payne offers a unique perspective on the era's music, fashion, and culture. From the bands that defined the scene to the fans who helped shape its sound, Payne's story is a fascinating and often absurd account of the emo phenomenon.
