[QUOTE=tornpictures]See, what I meant to say was, why do you call them screamo if they're supposed to have that 'extreme amount of emo.'

Screamo bands don't have that 'extreme amount of emo,' (Orchid, Neil Perry) nor do regular hardcore bands (HOT CROSS).
That's why I don't call them emo.[/QUOTE]

So what's your definition of "screamo?"

try the assistant, thats screamo

Screamo- Circle Takes The Square, Combat Wounded Veteran, Hot Cross, Hugs, Kaospilot, Mass Movement of The Moths, Neil Perry, Takaru

Not Screamo- Alexisonfire, Atreyu, Thrice, Thursday, Refused, My Chemical Romance

and someone said Break The Silence... they aren't even close to anything emo.

Hugs is cool.

combatwoundedveteran are just grindy, spazzy stuff. not screamo.

Great band, too.

you guys forgot to mention textbook traitors

[QUOTE=Teeth and Lungs]ok first of all, i do agree that thursday, sense fail, etc are NOT screamo BUT...
thursday is an absolutely amazing band, they have some of the most amazing lyrics i have heard yet and the music is very melodic and intense, if u diss thursday then u have NO taste in music

second of all, screamo is in fact a characteristic that suits bands like From Autumn to Ashes, Underoath, Anah Aevia (more hardcore then screamo) etc.

if you enjoy bands like FATA and Underoath then you like screamo, and let me take this opportunity to state once and for all that bands like FATA and Underoath are not hardcore, and don't even come close.[/QUOTE]

<--- has no taste in music

uh...why dont you all just stop argueing about which bands are screamo and which ones are hardcore....honestly... :rolleyes:

Either its great irony, or you know what you are talking about.

I'm going with the first.

[QUOTE=coheedncambria94][SIZE=1]first of all screamo is emo the way it used to be played. when every1 started calling all those pop-punk bands "emo" ppl started xalling the real emo music "screamo"
screamo bands don't all ways scream they can also sing.
Screamo bands: -Breakdance Vietnam
-Pg. 99
-ALEXISONFIRE
-Planes Mistaken For Stars (kinda, jus a lil')
-Senses Fail (yes, they hav sum screamo characteristics)
-Saosin
-These Arms Are Snakes
-Silverstein
-The Hope Conspiracy
-Jude The Obscure

Often classified as screamo: -Atreyu
-From Autumn To Ashes
-Coheed And Cambria
-Hopesfall
-Story of The Year
-My Chemical Romance
-Endicott
-Break The Silence
-Taking Back Sunday (you'll b surpirsed if u knew)
-You get the idea


Theres a Difference between Post-Hardcore, Emo, Screamo, and Hardcore[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
You fayle [I]BIG TIME[/I]

Bands with high pitched, 'spazzy' screams i tend to class as screamo eg. CTTS, Orchid etc. Not to say all bands can be lumped into the genre just down to this characteristic however, as bands like the #12 looks like you and combat wounded veterean contain all the craziness and spazz elements similar to screamo bands but i would place them more in a grind/hXc direction.

guess who doesn't care what the f*ck the music he likes is pidgeonholed as?


<---this guy :cool:

Then you're posting in the wrong forum.

ok.

Wow, you're too cool for school chump

What about Saetia?

Yes.

Some consider them emo, some screamo.

If Potrait is considered screamo, Saetia is too.

I would def call Saetia screamo. I acn see why they would be emo, but they scream waaaay to much, so I call em Screamo.

tell them your Saetia/Ebay story.

deadohiosky and his spending ridiculous amounts of money on Saetia items. Mansecks please.

I love rich kids bidding their way to a record collection.

hahahah. lolz. i have my parents credit card saved on paypal, so i now own every Saetia record. :naughty: Oh yeah, i also met Jamie on ebay.

I think bands like Pg. 99 and CTTS, lean more towards hardcore and grindcore, than emo. If screamo is supposed to be all screaming, what sets it apart from hardcore. Now people are saying Saetia is screamo. I always considered them emo. All these bands that overlap in genres are starting to confuse me.

And about DFelon saying Underoath is popcore, there's no such thing. I think a better term would be melodic hardcore. The reason so many people say Underoath is screamo is because they went from being a metalcore band to a melodic hardcore band on their newer albums.

nah, i still say pg 99 and ctts are screamo

it's disgusting how grindcore can be spoken about like its so close to being emo.

Underoath is not melodic hardcore. Melodic hardcore shouldn't even be a genre. Underoath is part of this whole new wave of bad bands that people think are hardcore, but aren't. Popcore sounds like a good name for it.
