and which definition of emo do they not fit again?

aside from the "you don't know what real emo is" definition only carried by people pathetic enough to be a "guru" on the "genre".

if you see a rotting squirrel on the side of the road and think to yourself "if i eat this, its going to make me throw up", logic tells you to not eat the rotting squirrel.

Pretty good song. Seriously what is with all the hating of this band. Just because it isn't your style of music doesn't mean you have to hate on it. Go listen to your Dillinger Escape Plan and keep confusing bad music for good and visa versa.

emotive lyrics that mix screaming and singing with a punk tinge, at times reminiscent of the mid 80's DC hardcore scene...SG's and all....what am I missing? Perhaps you can direct me to the "official" definition that contradicts me?

Still have yet to get an answer here guys...just emo elitism...as hilarious as that may be.

just as much as they are emo. I said prove me wrong, not name random genres that could also define what they sound like some of the time.

What emo bands do you listen to?

KebertXela
March 23rd 2010
367 Comments


I don't listen to any, I think most of them suck. That doesn't, however, mean that I don't know anything about the genre. The only ones I find tolerable are some of the ones from the mid 80's when the scene actually began...and I haven't listened to them since high school really.

But hey, way to dodge friend. I guess when you can't actually answer questions it helps to ask your own and hope I didn't realize it?

KebertXela

Personally I can't stand them...but yet again, another post that can't tell me, specifically, how this band is in no way Emo.

Nice.

However, they had a few nice harmonized parts on their debut.

sniper

The reason I asked you what emo bands you listen to is that anyone with a decent background in the genre would be able to hear the difference between a band like Hawthorne Heights and an emo band. The sound is vastly different; HH has a focus on catchy melodies, and glossy production value, and create music that is easily digestible and aimed at teens who spend their time watching Fuse. Those are not qualities you will see reflected in emo bands. You can call it "genre elitism" if you want, but I'm just telling you that most people (read: all of them) who have listened to a decent amount of emo will tell you HH does not fall under that category.

And before you accuse me of dodging questions, make sure you actually answer mine. I asked what bands you listen to, but from what I can see, all you gave me was a vague reference to "some of the ones from the mid 80's"

KebertXela

You asked me what bands emo bands I "listen" to and I answered you. I don't listen to any because I think most of them suck.

A better question would be "what emo bands are you familiar with".

Ask me that question and I'll answer you.

KebertXela

I'll go ahead and answer my (better) question.

I'm quite familiar with bands like Minor Threat (the only one I'd say I was ever actually a fan of), The Hated (I'm from Annapolis) Moss Icon, Split Lip, Native Nod, Boy's Life, Jawbreaker, Lifetime, Rites of Spring, Mineral, and I guess Sunny Day Real Estate

Okay, so now the question is, do you really think this band belongs under the same label as a single one of the bands you just listed?

Its pretty obvious you're just looking for something to argue about, you're doing the same thing in the Deftones thread too, so look, if you're so convinced, just keep calling them whatever you want, it won't bother me.

Highschool girls, wearing to write love on her arms shirts, rejoice across the land.


And that land is North America, since for some reason bitches here are the only ones who can stand
this shit.


Oh and sad, depressed, sappy, BS lyrics about killing yourself and gay shit like that, do not an emo
band make. Emo isn't defined solely by the lyrics. If that were the case the genre would be much
more all encompassing. The tone, the mood, the pacing, the lyrics, everything the bands you listed
tend to have in spades as trademark 'emo' aren't at all present here. This is just bad.
