I started Emo Punk Memories to keep the music that shaped me alive. You know that feeling when a song transports you back to packed shows, late-night drives, and lyrics that felt like they were written just for you? That's what I wanted to capture here.
For me, this music was the soundtrack to everything. It's the little things: burning CDs, waiting hours on LimeWire, and finding that one band on MySpace that felt like buried treasure. Those moments defined who I am.
What began as a personal project evolved into something much bigger. I realized that if we don't document this scene, the real stories get lost or rewritten.
I built Emo Punk Memories to be a trusted outlet and a dedicated archive for the scene. This isn't just a repost page. I'm committed to acting as a credible source for the culture, curating rare footage, documenting the history, and giving these artists the coverage they deserve.
The best part of this journey has been sharing it with my kids. I'll never forget taking my daughters to their first show to see The Juliana Theory, Dashboard Confessional, and Andrew McMahon. We bought them band shirts that were way too big, and I watched them light up just like I did.
As Andrew took the stage, it hit me. I wasn't just passing down music; I was sharing a part of myself.
To preserve the legacy of emo and punk music with the authenticity and respect it deserves.
I'm building a trusted archive and media outlet that documents the real stories, curates rare moments, and ensures this generation-defining culture isn't forgotten or rewritten. This scene shaped who we are, and it's my commitment to keep it alive for everyone who feels it, whether you were there from the beginning or you're just discovering it now.
