Emo music

[txrandom]

My roommate is listening to Simple Plan or All-American Rejects, and now he is singing along. Emo music ftl.

 

[giantpinkbunnyhead]

you call that emo music?

 

[txrandom]

It's ****** music nonetheless.

 

[Shawn]

I rather like Elmo music.

 

[jonessoda]

I like the All-American Rejects. And I hate emos. Therefore, the All-American Rejects are not emo. Therefore, this topic is fail.

 

[Thraxen]

I'm sick of of the term 'emo'. It's applied so broadly now that it has lost all meaning.

Play some Bloodbath for your roomate.
Everybody loves Bloodbath.

Preferably play something off of Breeding Death or Resurrection through Carnage, as those were the times when Bloobath was a true Superband ... (Dan Swano + Michael Akerfeldt = endless posibillities possible with music)

I didnt know you decided what bands were emo or not

People are so fvcking clueless when it comes to music that anything new they don't like with an electric guitar in it played by a guy with tats is emo.

Simple Plan is horrible; All-American Rejects are tolerable; neither are "emo".

Is there an Emo council that should be consulted on these matters?

 

[xospec1alk]

Ask All-American Rejects. I hear they're the head of the Emo council.

Well, now you know. And knowing is half the battle!

There is something in the voices of the lead singers of these bands that I cannot put my finger but it is exceptionally annoying. Some sort of whiny twang. I

Maybe you just don't know what your talking about?

Punk music is Emo, All-American douche bags make crappy new wave punk music - therefore they are Emo. And all the 13-14 yo girls that listen to this crap are too. It doesn't mean you have to be emo, but the music definetely is.

Although I agree, the term emo was originally coined because of the new wave punk scene, to describe (depending on who you talk to) the people who listen to it and dress the same way or to describe the music itself. It grew from that to encompass goth, and all other forms of emo type music and the majority of people who not only listen to it - but turn it into their lifestyle.

Once again, both are new wave punk bands. Therefore they are emo.

yep, when I was growing up, bands like Minor Threat were considered emo.

 

[jonessoda]

Yeah, Punk is totally emo, huh. And so is IDM, right? That Aphex Twin doesn't go a day without cutting himself and crying into a mic. And orchestral chamber music, god, that's so emo I can't stand it.

Seriously wtf dude

 

[DaShen]

I liked Indie Rock before it became EMO. Now, some of the music kind of pisses me off.

But punk or urban rock isn't EMO. Sorry, OP, but figure out what type of music it is before you post something like this.

**EDIT**
BTW I still like some Indie Rock, but lately the pickings of good Indie rock has been few and far between, so I have been listening to Jazz, Bluegrass, and the Blues lately.

About the whole "punk is emo" thing.
Black Flag and The Misfits are punk. They aren't emo.

Maybe some of the crap that gets labeled as punk these days is, I dunno.
