Emo Bands Standing Up to the Man


Listen Later

This week on The Breakdown, we’re seriously crashing out because we live in America 🇺🇸😩, but are grateful for the bands that are using their voice ✊🏾and we’re taking a walk down memory lane to get excite about the albums being released in 2026/26. 🤘🏾

Plus: we’re our Liar Liar of the Week went from box braids to a boxy face, and we prove there’s a lil’ emo in Big Brother badass.

Your friends and family might think this is trash TV, your mom might have called your love for emo music a phase - but here we know pop culture moments and alternative music scenes shaped us—and still do. Let’s laugh together, cry together, scream at the Tv together. Welcome to RealityEmos.
