I'm good with punk ones, but I'm new to the emo stuff, the only distinction I've made is if most of the singing is screaming and the music is pretty chaotic and emotional, I'd call it screamo, and more melody in the singing and music, I'd call emo, but that's just my basic defintion now.

[QUOTE=Brain Toad]I've been really getting into the screamo side of emo but I feel I've negelected 'regular' emo. I already like Embrace and Rites of Spring, so I've got that covered. I'm listening to Sunny Day Real Estate right now and I like it and I also like Cap'n Jazz, anything similar to either of those two (or Embrace and Rites of Spring) I must check out?[/QUOTE]

One Last Wish. It's basically Rites of Spring. I thought it was a little more poppy than Rites, but still good.

[QUOTE=Brain Toad]Already listen to both of those, and I thought Funeral Diner was on the screamo side anyway?[/QUOTE]


Screamo isn't a genre.

Ash, stop confusing everyone with your "screamo isn't a genre" talk. We know it isn't a genre, but we will continue to say it, because it's simple and it's what we know.

So the bands that are called screamo are just emo? Is there any way differenate the two? i.e the hardcore-punk and modern hardcore seperation?

Don't listen to him. Well, actually, listen to him, but don't. Just keep saying screamo, everyone will know what you mean if you say it.

I know that, but I want to learn what he means, I like knowing stuff like that. I'm a music nerd.

I just call screamo, hardcore

Screamo and emo are the exact same thing. Anyone who uses the term screamo seriously sucks. Besides Neeshee. He's sweet.

brain toad, ash is right. screamo isn't a genre. people consider it to be a different type of emo because its more chaotic, but in truth there are only a few chaotic bands, theres no need for a completely new genre just for those few bands. as a genre grows bigger, the sound becomes more experimental and with emotional hardcore there is tons of experimentation, the best example i can think of is Gospel. i personally don't like how people differentiate "emo" and "screamo" and refer to them like two different things. i just call it all emo, cause thats what it is. there's no need for "screamo"...its just ridiculous. and if you dont believe its a genre, Retiredat21, then don't use the term. the more you use it, the more you encourage it. everyone here knows the bands, just call em what they are. we don't really discuss genres here anyways...i hope that wasn't too confusing.

<3 you, Curry.

That makes some sense and I think as I get more into emo I start seeing there is few differences between bands unless there is a long year gap which is probably just experimental growth.

yeah after you get into it you notice a lot of things.

Brain Toad, I love you.

[quote=Wow]Brain Toad, I love you.[/quote]

Haha thanks. Is it because I actually listen and am willing to learn, or is it just my plain drop dead sexyness?

Both, sweet thang. :wink:

I've got a full length and a split of theirs. Soulseek is BrainToad

[quote=Wow]Both, sweet thang. :wink:[/quote]

It's the college and love of music, it makes me open to learning and loving all music and plus increases my sexyness 20%.

Nick is now fully accepted in the emo community.

I long for that kind of acceptance.

You live in Columbus. I do too. Come visit me and you will be accepted!

Okay! You're from Dublin right? I'm from Upper Arlington.

I believe you and I have had this discussion before.

Where the f[SIZE="2"]u[/SIZE]ck is Columbus? Is it in the middle of nowhere of Ohio?

It's the capital! Right in the middle.

Mhmm.

Oh, word. Shows how much I payed attention when learning about state capitals.

The Number 12 Looks Like You was amazing last night!!!!!! Ed Gein was good. Job For A Cowboy got on the bill at the last minute but were also good. Animosity sucks so they played bad. Through The Eyes of The Dead were pretty sick. I broke my glasses and my shoulder feels torn. My friend got his eye hit. I think he cut it. Brutality.

I hate geography.

If I stop saying "screamo", will you guys all like me? :)

No.

Why can't I stop listening to City of Caterpillar?

Does anyone know if Querencia has any material other than The Wake?

is emo violence a real genre?

Nope

[QUOTE=Wow]No.[/QUOTE]

[quote=Mattfanatic]is emo violence a real genre?[/quote]

That was my next question. But I never really believed it was, its too stupid sounding to be serious.

Any term coined by In/Humanity has to be true.
