Stream the full ’00s Emo tunes on Spotify here.4. It seemed fitting to have one more Aussie band round off this list, in one last angsty throwdown.Īlso while we’re here and I have your full, undivided emo attention can we please take a moment to relive one of the most chaotic covers of the ’00s. The All-American Rejects can sometimes be one of those bands who nearly slips under the emo radar until you remember how many bangers they had. ‘Dirty Little Secret’ – The All-American Rejects It still hurts to listen to this, but the best gift Chester Bennington gave us was that his music, and way of describing feelings you never knew you had, will always live on.Ģ6. You Me At Six were starting to garner worldwide attention in the ’00s and it’s easy to see why with catchy songs like ‘Underdog’ – even if their 2011 collab with Oli Sykes ‘Bite My Tongue’ is the best song they ever did do. If you didn’t sit there with friends yelling “WHERE ARE YOU? AND I’M SO SORRY” in a fake, bad American accent then you haven’t lived. This was like a personal emo anthem for any teen girl growing up trying to figure shit out.
No words can describe the feeling of being in a loud, crazy mosh and screaming out, “Light up the sky and scream fuck the reaper!” with thousands of other people. The Amity Affliction proved that Aussies do emo/hardcore just as well. ‘Lifestyles Of The Rich & Famous’ – Good CharlotteĬatchy pop punk at its finest. The Getaway Plan hit it big with their 2008 hit ‘Where The City Meets The Sea’ and suddenly everyone at your high school loved the song too, while you were sitting there blasting ‘The New Year’ like a true, disgruntled fan.ġ9. ‘Where The City Meets The Sea’ – The Getaway Plan Who didn’t love singing along to this song earnestly as though you even knew what “better days” were.ġ8. If you owned the Kill Pop: Scream Til It Hurts compilation album in the ’00s, then you know. Also let’s not forget how great follow-up single ‘Going Under’ is. Evanescence were a band that completely broke the mold. To this day, this is still a fucking banger. No wonder our parents worried about us if this was always blaring out of our rooms. The chorus of this song is about as emo as it gets. While Williams has now retired this song from playing it live due to not supporting its overall message anymore, we can’t pretend like we didn’t dance around our bedrooms to it growing up.ġ4. There weren’t many female-fronted bands that broke through the ’00s emo wave, but Paramore and fearless lead singer Hayley Williams made sure they broke through with a vengeance. Catchy AF, but leaves your head as instantly as it arrives. This was some cheesy, easy listening emo/pop punk at its finest. ‘The Curse of Curves’ – Cute Is What We Aim For While a lot of emo nostalgia lists focus on your MCR’s and FOB’s, let’s pour one out for Welsh band Funeral For A Friend. Trust me when I say now you’ve been reminded of this song, it’ll be in your head for weeks.
TBH I was never a Simple Plan fan, but you don’t get much more emo than this.ġ0. Still releasing music to this day, ‘I Caught Fire’ was one of those tracks that proved they could do emo really well, but they could do pop punk just as good. If you didn’t angrily blast the chorus of this song while thinking of someone who made your life a living hell in high school, were you even a true emo? Sure we all get so used to associating Panic’s biggest track as ‘I Write Sins, Not Tragedies’ but this has actually got to be the best song on their debut album. ‘Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off’ – Panic! At The Disco Red Jumpsuit Apparatus released this song about a toxic abusive relationship in 2006 and the message still resonates to this day.Ħ. Before Jared Leto got super weird and started a cult, 30 Seconds To Mars did an emo pivot on their second album and it was good shit.
