Yeah I mean you could elaborate a bit more, maybe start an actual conversation for people, say something that proves you actually know what emo is. It seems like nowadays people seem to hate the style more then the actual music itself. I personally love emo music. Taking Back Sunday, Senses Fail, and Say Anything are some of my favorite bands, and Cute Is What We Aim for is a guilty pleasure of mine. |

Grow up. |

That's true. Alot of people seem to hate the style more than the music.
I adore Taking Back Sunday and Senses Fail as well. |

Eh...when I saw them at Taste Of Chaos last year, Buddy's voice got all fucked up and such. Which made them not-so-amazing live, in my opinion. But the crowd got really rowdy, so that kind of made up for it. |

What I hate is that any band that seems to show emotion in their lyrics are labeled as emo. Like if a up and coming band have a single that's about a break-up or ex-girlfriend they seem to be automatically labeled as emo.
I've only read a little bit of it, but it's hilarious. 
Brand New is adfaskldj 
God I love that band, Jesse's lyrics are utterly amazing. Just pure beauty. |

I'm gonna marry Jesse Lacey. But Seriously, Deja Entendu is my baby. I love that album more than anything.
I absolutely love 1997, too. They're from Chicago and they're signed to Victory Records for whoever hasn't heard of them.

 Age: 14 Gender: Female Posts: 853 | June 11th, 2008 at 08:08am I love emo. My friend Carla has an interesting theory about "emo" music. It's music with passion, drive, love, hate, EMOTIONS!!! It's anything that helps you feel like your life is meaningful, makes you wanna do something. So in that respect I love Emo music. |

Are they emo? I don't know. I think they are...
I don't tend to call music "emo". People don't know what it means anyway, it's a cheap imitation of a stye that started in the 80s.
Do people call From First To Last emo? 'Cause they're also quite good when they want to be, but not all the time.
I prefer rock..... and metal. |

 Age: 16 Gender: Female Posts: 2466 | June 14th, 2008 at 05:44pm I really don't like how people "hate it" because if you think about it, all good music has an emotion behind it right? If you look at it that way it really broadens the genre But I like a lot of the music but into this category |

Well, it really depends what emo is to you.
A 1980's band?
A mainstream band?
An underground band?
I really don't see what bands emo fits into. It's not as simple as rock or punk. As it would seem.

I completely agree with that. It bothers me to no end because the people who do that don't know what emo really is. |
