Emo Revival
The emo revival (also known as the post-emo revival, the Midwestern emo revival, and fourth wave emo) was an underground emo movement which came about in the late 2000s to early 2010s.

Bands often display a "DIY sound" and lyrical themes range from nostalgia to adulthood. Emo revival scenes have sprung up throughout the United States and Uni ...
