emo
KharBevNor:
I don't know much about emo, though i do have good friends who are in to what appears to be 'proper' emo, as in emotional hardcore and so forth. This does, however, appear to be roughly similiar to the thread that happens on every metal forum once a month or so, you know, when DaniFilth195 says Cradle of Filth are his favourite metal band, and Lord Chronos the Unwholesome reads the riot act on the Norwegian first wave, only for Krzgaflknoktzalackack to sneer that only the first Mayhem demo possesed the true blackflame of Satan, and for the whole topic to degenerate into a huge wank session about who has the most Les Legiones Noires vinyl.
People aren't that different, really.

All the emo I've heard gets a big 'hme'. None of it stands out to me.

not to beat a dead horse further, but just to clarify....
Death Cab For Cutie started out as a slowcore band and have gradually become more indie rock.
Bright Eyes, while generally being depressing as fuck, is indie folk.
I can't stand these recent "emo" bands like Hawthorne Heights and Matchbook Romance, etc.. It's just fucking annoying whining and cliche lyrics with ridiculously simple song structures. I can take that level of sadness from Bright Eyes because at least Conor makes it interesting with great lyrics and interesting songs.
These new bands pale in comparison to their forebearers.

WTF. Something About Airplanes was Indie Rock, through and through, and a classic in it's genre. I'd say they've become more Indie Pop, especially with We Have the Facts and Transatlanticism).
