Yeah I didnt know so much about it until my middle school days between 2010-2012 and dear lord it was at the peak of BOTDF, Nightcore, MLP, Tumblr, Meeboz, Aim, MySpace,
I was fucking 7 years old when "Welcome to the Black Parade" came out. I was literally seven. By the time I hit high school and started dressing Emo, I was 16 and it had mostly gone outta fashion.
Transitioned to Goth subculture (which I'm still part of), then come the pandemic and my interest in Emo grew again and I decided "Y'know what? Fuck it! I've only got this one life! I'll be both!"
Unfortunately, yes. I was only 2 months old when my favorite album "The Black Parade" came out. I'm currently a 17 year old emo girl in the rawring 20s.
