Industry veterans, Emery, followed DGD with what was easily the set of the night. With a brief, eight-song, set, and decked out in matching Hawaiian t-shirts, they covered a few songs off of each of their major releases, including “Walls,” “The Smile, The Face,” “In Shallow Seas We Sail,” “Rock ‘n’ Rule,” and “Studying Politics.” “Walls” and “Studying Politics” opened and closed their set, respectively, and did a beautiful job of setting the tone for their set and bringing the energy back around, leaving everyone anxious for more.
Each song follows its own theme, it’s not really a story to be from one song to the other, and just each song follows its theme. The most story-based song is survivor which is the last song on the album, it’s about this dude who lives out in the middle of Kansas on a farm, and the zombies killed his wife, and now he is just extremely lonely. His biggest problem is solitude as compared to actually having to battle the zombies.

Emo’s is a very unforgiving venue with a stage smaller than most college bathrooms, and when you fill an equally limited floor space with tight-jeaned, stretched-lobed kids packed together like a deck of cards, the end result is down right boiling — especially in the prime of the Texas summer. Despite the crippling warmth and tight conditions, Mychildren Mybride poured every ounce of intensity into their forty-five minute set until it was dripping from vocalist Matthew Hastings’ long black hair.
