emo
Spencer:
To Recap:
Bright Eyes is not emo.
Neither is Dashboard Confession. Chris Carraba may also be the antichrist.
Death Cab For Cutie is about as far from Emo as you can get while still holding a guitar.
Jimmy Eat World is Emotional Pop music. So is Amy Grant.
Straylight Ray, Taking Back Sunday, Fallout Boy, and Funeral For A Friend - Not Emo. Calling these bands Emo is like calling Good Charlotte Punk.
Finch - Emo by definition I suppose, though I have a hard time finding their music genuine. Just my personal opinion.
Indian Summer - Definitly Emo. One of the originals, one of the best. Yes, they have a Discography, and its really good. As is there "Live at the Blue Universe (or Blue Room. i cant remember)" set.
Moss Icon, Strictly Ballroom, Rites of Spring, Braid, that first Getup Kids album. All of these could accurately be described as emotional hardcore, vis a vis, Emo.
If you gotta be a dick and label everything.
God, why do I allow myself to get sucked into these crap vacumn threads.
LISTEN TO MORE HIP HOP. DIVERSIFY YO' BONDS, NIGGA!

--- Quote from: Robbo ---Man, some people didn't read the thread. Yes Grace, we had this talk about what "Real Emo"...it certainly doesn't sound ANYTHING like DCFC or Bright Eyes or Dashboard Confessional or any of that.

sorry mate. i'm terrible with genres, i just go by what people say to me, and i've been told that Death Cab are pretty darn emo- ah well!
i think the answer to the question at the start of this thread has been well and truly answered. basically, 'emo' doesn't always just mean 'emotion' but a specific genre. Further, genres are all relative- one person's 'hard-rock' could be another's soft.

Sorry i got them wrong...
Taking Back Sunday - they call themself a Rock Band in an interview on VH1 website...
Straylight Run - has emo-ish characteristics but the band says they have no genre
FFAF - Taking the emotional drive and melodic heart of emo, the gut-driven power of rock and the hardworking ethic of hardcore
Fall Out Boy - pop/punk, well im done...and now i understand thye might sound like emo but reseacrh the band and find out what genre they are...
