Sure it is artist and deep but what does it do to you? Entertain you. It might give you emotions and make you feel deep but in the end it is entertainment. Now Im getting of topic. Anyways, people are ignorant, not much one can do about it, stop acting like it is your job to educate them.

Thats one of the stupidest things i've ever read. For one, musicbanter is a good deal smaller then the internet, and I still don't see a problem without trying to educate musicbanter on emo and if music is just entertainment then why did you bother to join the forum? The main reason I joined here was to learn new bands and about new genres, I don't see a problem with trying to expose people to a brand new genre and new bands. Especially a genre like emo which is very misunderstood. Kind of funny how the maker of the ska education thread is discouraging this...

Whatever, continue with your emo education, just don't think you will revolutionize anything.

Edit: and for the record, I feel deep with plenty of music but I see it for what it is, not somthing I want it to be.

Yeah, cause by doing this im hoping I can change the entire population of musicbanter's opinion. I still think its stupid you feel so negative about educating people just because you deem it pointless, if one person walks away knowing what emo is then I think thats doing something good.

Power pop is a fairly recognized genre that hit it's peak in the 70s. Say Anything has no characteristics of an emo band. There are no hardcore elements, no screaming, and very little dynamic shift.

I was saying pop punk was made up, it's punk-pop; I was sorta joking. And when I say genre, I usually think of Rock, Jazz, Blues, etc. And power pop comes under rock, that's all I was saying. And your definition of indie is out of date as is your definition of emo.

Fine! Since you feel so passionate about it I will humor myself and try out some of the emo-ness and see if I like it. Happy?

Must be some other Don, I'm actually one of the very few that has a clear conception of the term, and have stated that one form of emo is closely related to punk-pop.
