I get pissed off at generalizations because its the same thing that people do when they are racist or feminist. with regards to whole ways of music, like Rock, heavy metal, or rap. to say that "this is the way they all do it and this is why" is so lame. so lame. and so lame

its a vocal technique that can convey a certain emotion or idea. people like to learn it. get over it. do you use a pick or finger your bass? or both. get my point?

if you dont like screaming in a song, then say it. but dont fit everyone into your little generalization. So i listen to Tool, Mudvayne, Apc, Chris Cornell, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Esthero, Res, and Sarah McLachlan. Now tell me what Genre I'm trying to fit into...go ahead.
how can i not generalise when every single emo band sounds identical?

"its a vocal technique that can convey a certain emotion or idea" - no, it doesn't. it's just been copied so many times over so people can sound like emo bands in the charts. there's nothing emotional about it at all.
