So when did Emo actually make the switch from a respectable genre back in the 80's-90's to just a name that gets raped whenever someone feels its appropriate?

Presumably when the music press needed a new label to sloppily tag every new and vaguely similar band to get big in the next 2 years with. I'm pretty sure that's how it happened over here anyway.

I'd try and point at a band, but I can't decide which to impale. XP

About the same time people started wheeling out the term 'goth' for every band wearing eye makeup and calling KoRn metal.

Also, all ska kids switched to emo.


All the ones I know switched over to crappy noise rock. And Emo, but Noise-core too.
