EMO Question??

[JIRONS]

All right guys,

I'm trying to identify an emo band. They had a video played regulary on MTV/2 prolly about 6-8 years ago.

The video is of a 4 piece band, they are wearing suits and ties (red shirts I think). They are running around inside a building with hallways, rooms, etc, and interminttently wearing animal masks. At several clips, the singer is holding and screaming into a mic that is coming down from the ceiling.

The lyrics (as best as I can remember) say something like "..attack of the .... get away, get away" or somethng like that.

I'm looking either for band or song name.

Thanks.

Refused are pretty sweet.

Indeed.

[A Dead Modernist]

yeah nah really

[JIRONS]

Yeah, I like 'em. Great sound.

I'm 37 years old, and grew up listening to TSOL, COC, DI, Suicidal Tendencies, DK's, JFA, Dead Milkmen, Fugazi, Minor Threat/Fugazi... you get the picture.

So, yeah, I dig it.

I prefer FKA, AOE, PLA, ANE, ALSW, and AI personally.

[sleepless]

Are you guys kidding? It's 30 Seconds To Mars.

EDIT: **** I missed it.

It wasn't 6-8 years ago, was it?

Epic fail, dumbass.

[Plan B.]

international noise conspiracy anyone?

dennis' voice is bettur cuz he doesn't scream like in refused

[santi3hg]

Yeah man that is definitely Refused and their most recognized song. Far from emo and post-hardcore, another band of the same time period around them is Quicksand. Check them out to. Ian Mckay loves Quicksand so I'm surprised Jiron you haven't heard of them as well.

And emo has been around almost two decades Austin, you are only witnessing a commercialized version of it today.

You may be thinking of At The Drive In's One-armed Scissor with those lyrics.

[GhostNote]

If so then it's "Cut away, cut away"

[Aaron]

Well yeah. But it's pretty indisguishable. Sup Ryan? lolz.

No, i mean emo as a fad... drainpipes, black hair, myspace...

My cousin was into the emo style before it was so commercialized, 'twas actually cool back then haha.

On the topic of drums and the refused, David Sandstrom is pretty bad ***. Anyone agree?

I don't normally advocate suicide...but he's right. You should probably do more than consider it.

[Talos]

This is question is way too emo for all of you guys.

Well I hope we all learn on how this was a poorly educated guess as to what an emo band is.

Great band.
