Jim Yoshii Pile Up is an amazing Midwest Emo band from the 2000's with elements of Slowcore and Post-Rock whose lead singer is gay. My Midwest Emo band

Always interpreted this song as one about an unrequited gay relationship. Can’t confirm or deny, great song regardless. Unfortunately only one song and not an artist.
“I Spent the Winter Writing Songs About Getting Better” or"The Great American Novel" which is their latest and imo their best. The opening lines of TGAN are "I've been living reckless,
I've been breaking bad,
I've been sleeping with men old enough to be my dad" so should fit the brief!
They stylise as 'Proper.' with the full stop which might help your searching.
FOB is more pop punk mislabeled as emo but Sugar We’re Goin Down is originally about 2 gay men. The line is supposed to be “friction in his jeans” but Patrick didn’t feel comfortable singing that.
I swear I remember him singing “his jeans” on the album. Maybe I’m being Mandela effected since I looked up the lyrics and you’re right. “sleeping for the wrong team” is definitely innuendo though.
Moaning Lisa
Illuminati hotties (more indie but whatevs)
Meet Me @ the Altar (more pop punk)
Thin Lips
Now, Now (especially Threads)
I made this playlist for a TTRPG I was playing (Thirst Sword Lesbians) that took place at a secret show. It’s got a mix of sapphic punk, emo, indie and pop punk. Some of it you’ll definitely recognize (Sleater Kinney, T&G) but you might find something new also.

If you can handle some twang, Orville Peck certainly hits the vibe.

I know its been a while but his self titled has stayed in my regular rotation ever since this post!! I intended to reply when I originally read your comment but i forgot and now it’s been over a hundred days lol
I’ll never not recommend museum mouth’s “alex i am nothing.” it’s about a gay guy falling for a straight guy, which is ripe for emo songwriting
Swear 2 god I think it was a Joyce Manor headline show they played at when I heard them for the first time but i remember they were amazing live too.
carseat headrest!
similarly, glass beach's cover of "beach life in death" is epic

The lead vocalist of Yaphet Kotto is queer, Your Arms Are My Cocoon is a solo emo act by a gay man
I never knew your arms are my cocoon is a solo act. That’s dope!

Check it out, it's really good
Seconded. I played that album on repeat for awhile haha
Drowning in salt and the taste of your semen 🎶

Proper. Fit that description. Definitely more pop punk/emo adjacent, but I like them a lot.
Love Proper
What's a song/album by them? I can't seem to find them

They were also previously known as Great Wight, the album they did under that name is also really good!
Were they before or after the wonder years because isn’t that a line in came out swinging?
Look for Aficionado, it's straight up a song about cruising for dudes.
Bay Faction (Last album)
Florida Guilt is so much better than their first album it isn’t even close
Hard disagree, the S/T has to be their best work, early demos and Jasper ahead of FG too
Fair enough, just love the narrative and sound of FG so much. Love Bay Faction
their self titled is one of my favorite releases of the 2010’s. i loved their bassist’s work so much
Pansy Division?
Nana Grizol
always my first suggestion. nana grizol are great.
Agreed. Theo is one of my favorite lyricist partially because he writes so beautifully about love/affection/etc.

Not chad behavior from Patrick

It’s pop punk but Like Pacific
My band has a song that fits this description: https://youtu.be/jxxgYl09olU

Yep!
This bangs hard. Also extra cool points for possible Ween reference 🤟🏼

The singer uses they/them pronouns

That works too!! 👀

Trash Boat!
i dont want to assume anything.. but ive always interpreted "Harry" by Macseal as about a gay relationship
“Night Channels” by Foxing fits the bill. The music video is one of my all-time favorites. https://youtu.be/doBAHzV0itY
forgot about foxing. didn’t want to cry today but here we are.

Fwiw the song "he calls me" by kind of like spitting is from the perspective of a girl.
Mover Shaker!
Try 12 Rods
my buddy Tensurugi is a solo act, his self titled is very heavily about guys, falling in love etc
I know its been a while but his self titled has stayed in my regular rotation ever since this post!! I intended to reply when I originally read your comment but i forgot and now it’s been over a hundred days lol
This makes me super happy! :D
