The card game for scene kids
Are you even emo?
A trivia game of useless 2000s emo & pop-punk knowledge. Pre-orders ship mid-July 2026.
Best Value: The Bundle
The Are You Even Emo? Bundle combines all four editions into one dangerously unnecessary collection of knowledge: Lyrics, Hometowns, Release Dates, and Scene Lore & History. That’s hundreds of questions covering the bands, songs, internet culture, festivals, MySpace memories, and oddly specific facts your brain decided were more important than basic life skills.

FAQ
How many people can play?
As many as you'd like, but its best with 2 people.
Do I need to know every band?
Nope. Half the fun is bluffing. The other half is someone's weirdly specific knowledge of 2005 Warped Tour setlists.
What's in each edition?
~90 cards per edition. Lyrics, Release Dates, Hometowns, and Scene Lore. Mix decks freely.
Will you make future editions?
dude, do you want to work for us? yeah, we have some more coming soon.
How fast does it ship?
Our pre-order batch will ship in mid-June 2026.
Why are you doing this?
We spent two decades storing this information. It had to go somewhere.
Do you ship outside the US?
Not yet, but we'll get there.
Can I sell this game in my store?
honestly, our day jobs suck so that would be really helpful. Please email wholesale[[at]]elderemo.com
Can I buy this game for my bar/restaurant?
hell yeah
No, but seriously, why are you doing this?
The dream is simple: spend less time working a corporate job and more time doing this. (🎶 Work sucks 🎶). Also, everyone sells tee shirts now, so we needed to diversify our bad business decisions.
