25 Emo Memes That Will Make You Cackle as You Recall Your Emo Kid Days | “Your Eyeliner Is the Same Color as Your Soul”

A decade ago, the emo culture was at its all-time high. Spikey hair, dressing in all black, listening to metal bands and slathering a bottle full of eyeliner on your face was considered peak fashion revolution. Emo folks are described as introspective or shy and quiet. They tend to spend time alone or with people who share their interests, listening to music or making emo-influenced art. Bands like Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco and My Chemical Romance were among the metal bands whose posters were all over the walls in every emo kid's room, but times have changed and so has the emo subculture. However, every now and then, we hear a familiar song from that time or come across a meme on the internet which reminds us that being emo was not just a phase, it was a part of your personality. Being emo was considered cool but right now the subculture has become less popular so we can have a laugh at these nostalgia-inducing memes.
