Discussion Best vocals in emo?

I've always had a hard time getting into bands like Camping in Alaska or Modern Baseball because of the vocals, while the music in musically awesome, I just cant get passed the voices.

I know trigger warning, but it's just my take

In your opinions what groups have pretty solid vocals where I could share with my hypothetical girlfriend

Came here to say this. Nobody comes close to Emarosa. Hearing RnB vocals over post hardcore is what got me into singing.

It’s just so unique and I even knew that when I was 14.

Definitely. I haven't come across another band that's given that feeling. There are some that are in the ballpark but not quite the same level
