It just do be like that. It’s cold and rainy and just a general stressful time of the year for many. As a graduating senior, I can say that midwest emo music really fits the moment for many during the mid-spring season. People want to have fun and drink Friday beers, but life is just not letting them so they’re sad about it, while there is likely more than just that going on, the desire to have fun but reality of stress makes everything very midwest emo. Different from regular emo, midwest emo has a brighter sound within their music and draws inspiration from indie music as well. The singers can’t really sing, but it fits very well with the melodramatic lyrics and chorus that will send you into a crisis. I say, embrace the music and let yourself have a midwest emo moment just this once.
