Sure. Take dog shyte, mix in some spinach and a bloody tampon, blend for 2 minutes on Puree then serve. Thats the audio equivelant of Emo.

ok, well i did not know those were emo bands, some of the "underground" emo bands suck. weezer is good, Jimmy eat world is good.
however, i have never classified them as emo, i have heard some more recent emo songs at work, ppl i work with listen to it, and i really just cannot like it.

emo bands: the get up kids, jimmy eat world, weezer (pinkerton album), dashboard confessional, saves the day, those are some of the big ones.
emo is basically sad (some say whiny) pop/punk/rock music

Nope, I couldnt name a band. Why? What I HAVE heard majorly sucks ass. And I've heard more then then just one song trust me. My friends studio has recorded for emo bands while I was there.

The reason there are a lot of BAD emo bands is cuz most of them are a bunch of teenagers who originated in someone's garage. The good ones are really awesome in my opinion. But most emo bands are INDIE not mainstream...so whatever floats your boat.
The short and simple answer is that Emo is Hardcore Punk music with sensitive and emotional lyrics. The music is epitomized by post-Grunge, edgy rock with explosive energy mixed with sensitivity. Emotional lyrics about sadness, love and even anger are common lyrical themes. There is also a subculture of young people that are considered Emo. The casual Emo garb is faded blue jeans or slightly oversized work pants accompanied by a secondhand T-shirt with an out of place logo, bad Heavy Metal tees work well too. Good shoes would be Converse Chuck Taylor low-tops or old skool low-top Vans. The more extreme clothes of choice would include horn-rimmed glasses, cardigan sweaters, dorky polo shirts, pants that are a bit too short and hair that is spiky or messy in the back with straight cut bangs.
