Emo music for emo girls

We continue our series on the best music enjoyed by the Emo community.  This is part 13.  The last several songs in this series are considered Post-Emo Indie Music–yet highly enjoyed by the new generation of Emos.

Christie Front Drive is available from Caulfield Records as both CD and LP.  The “Midwest Emo” phenomenon started here, and the Emo Indie Rock trend was launched.  Ebullition zine defined it as music that Emos would play when making love.

Boy’s Life released “Departures and Landfalls” via Crank! Records on both LP and CD.  This one is the essence of Midwest Emo, with mellow tunes that drift in and out, and train whistles from a distance. There is much building up and then easing back.  It has much intensity, but is never too harsh.

Boy’s Life also had a Christie Front Drive split on CD and 10″.  This one has been recently re-released, and features much of the best of both bands.

    Emo comes from inside, not by listening to Emo music and trying to be Emo .
