Yes some of us identified with emo music and culture. We were all young. We all had things we enjoyed. Many of us were looking for a shared identity and ways to express ourselves. Music was a powerful, cathartic experience for many of us. I can’t imagine my life if I hadn’t discovered Thursday. Some of my greatest memories are at shows with my friends - bands like Underoath and Norma Jean. Metal and emo/screamo are probably why I even survived high school.
My friends and I had a common language and love and way to express ourselves. I don’t know if you were just kind of making a joke here but I hope you aren’t insinuating that it was a bad thing to identify as a little emo or whatever when we were young.
Nah. I would make all those decisions again. I’m proud of them. Made some great memories, I’m still friends with tons of people from that time, and they all contributed someway to who I am today! I actually went to an Underoath show with all of my siblings recently, because music was really important all of us. It was really fun to ride that nostalgia train for an evening.

Not bad. But it’s like looking back on the pic of you in JNCO jeans and shaking your head at your youth
Speak for yourself. Not all of us regret who we were or the decisions we made.
