[QUOTE=cheeser_1]why does no one understand what emo is? why? these people keep talkin, it's like god is ****ting in my ears, 24-7.[/QUOTE]

Dude, Emo is short for emotional and thats exactly what I meant.

Emo stands for emotional hardcore, not just emotional.

I love it when people don't know their history.

Emo and emotional lyrics are two different things. Rap's pretty much the only unemotional music (if it's music). You can't have music without emotion. Music IS emotion put into sounds. Emo means "emotive hardcore." That'd be stuff like Rites of Spring, Embrace, or Fugazi.

There is plenty of rap with emotion, just none of it is popular.

well actually not all music has emotion. if you look at songs like "loose nut" from black flag, or "see her pee" by nofx you dont find much emotion. thats what i think anyway.

There is emotion put into all songs, whether it be sillyness or happiness, or sad. Every song has emotion, whether it was put there by the aritsts, or some behind the scenese songwriter.

you're right. I should have specified "mainstream rap" and used the word "most" because there are a few good rap songs...

[QUOTE]
yeah thats true. i guess i was just thinking "not every song is emotional."

Hey um, can anybody give me a link for some rare Afi tracks?
Thatd be cool, thanks.

shizzy and maco have like, ever rare afi song ever. they should be able to hook you up somehow or another.

Wow you reply fast, but uh, I saw their links but they expired or something

I'm quite fond of that secret song on i think answer that and stay fashionable, though i could be wrong. It's called man in a suitcase, and it's got a ska guitar riff, which sounds extremely different for afi.

man in a suitcase, it's by the police, unless i'm remembering that wrong.

Man in a Suitcase is a cover? I didn't know that.

Yep. It's a Police cover.

Wow, I had no idea.

they really should tour UK soon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

no they shouldn't

why shouldnt they ?

because

When is the next Afi single going to be released?

I'm going to guess November, but your avatar makes me want to puke.

Ouch, Im sorry, I love them, but not as much as Afi

Ok there, this one shouldnt make you puke, and it fits the thread

Wow, you actually changed your avatar. That makes me feel empowered.

pH Low
Lower Your Head And Take It In The Body
Coin Return
Third Season
Salt For Your Wounds
Triple Zero

It was their transition album into hardcore, so it's a lot different from their other albums. If you wanted me to, I could upload it.

I would really apreciate that.

Another good one on Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes is A Single Second, I like the bass in the beginning and the background singing
