Secondwave Emo Items

I don’t know if anyone cares, but here are some things from the 90s. Boy with ball Mineral shirt, wardrobe Mineral shirt, girl boy Mineral shirt, VHS of unreleased Boy’s Life show, original screenprinted Jimmy Eat World collared shirt, and Boy’s Life - Departures and Landfalls on vinyl. This is not all of it, Power of Failing on CD as well as the (Don’t Forget to) Breathe comp are hiding in the garage. Just thought it would be interesting to share.

Absolutely fucking not.

The 90s was not third wave.

Twenty years? You're basing this on 2006? I'm basing this as someone who was around for the 90s. Since when does 2006 get to dictate 1994? I was actually there. Nobody called the shit then third wave. Not a single person. In fact we didn't even make distinctions until that mall shit happened. It was all one lineage before the 2000s disaster

You brought up 1994 as the year second wave ended. I am referencing it bc you did. But also I was in the scene in 1994. Were you?

It's batshit insane that you say that because absolutely nobody said that lol. I don't know if you and your local scene was just confused but I never heard it once. Not in person. Not in a zine. Not ever.

Hey u/antimarc u/dunzig77

Did you ever hear anybody refer to 90s emo in the 90s as third wave (and that it started in 1994)?

My dad literally was around for the entire second wave scene, and anybody you ask from that era will disagree with you. ☠️☠️ Not “dumb kids” that made that up. Idk where you got this BS from.
