Anyone else like emo/screamo?

it's ma favorite besides the metal. it makes you want to move, and i don't know. it's the only thing that's really affected me since like ol timers i.e neil diamond lol yeah i said it, billy joel, kansas, boston. so don't be ashamed, i'll laugh if you are emo tho.

I'm totally an emo, I love my girl pants. What are some of your favorite bands?

I bet that you're not as emo as I am!!!!

Every single article of clothing I own was purchased at Hot Topic, and all of it is stained with blood from where I slit my wrists every night. Beat that you poseur!

By the way.
Does anyone have any Indian Summer they can send me? I heard that their discography was put onto CD not too long ago, does anyone have it?

Well, I dont want to buy it.

oh and ok don't laugh, i have a huge difference in music taste. i've even been known to put that rap on and sometimes country, i like music for what it is, poetry and sounds. but anyway, right now i be listening to chiodos, which i used to know way back in the day when they were still chiodo's bro.s they all lived near me.
but i love,

copeland
underoath

indian summer
showbread
bear vs shark
3rd grade science project


ya know the standards, lol.
and i playfully laugh at your girly pants, tho some of my best friends wear them too. and only like most of them are girls! lol

I'm going to. When I get the moneeeeeyyyyyyy.

Fixed.

Is there no Emo/Hardcore forum anymore?

It doesn't get proper attention. I'm bringing it here to help the uneducated, except I'm nothing like Don.

Probably because most people are smart enough to not like emo music. Most people dont dwell over unimportant things makeing their life out to be worse than everyone elses. News flash emo boys...LIFE SUCKS!
Get over it. Wearing tight close, makeup, black nailpolish, and cutting arent ways of expressing yourself. Sorry if im leading this thread more towars my own personal beliefs on emoness so let me bash the music now. Emo music is a sad exscuse for people with no talent to strike it big. It is the easy way out for most bands. In emo/screamo you dont have to have talent to make it big, just depressed followers that flunked outa school and pretend like they can relate to the music just because there girlfriend dumped you or your parents wont let you smoke pot. Anyway, emo bands like to pretend that there life is more depressing than anyone elses. If you want depressing go to Africa or parts of the middle east where AK-47s are being put into kids hands and sent to battle. Now if that is your life than you have all rights to say your life sucks.

Indian Summer is a good emo.

So you missed out on my sarcasm about the girls pants, and even though you've never read ANY of those bands on my list's lyrics (let alone listen to them) you still put in your uneducated misguided opinions. Kudos to you.

Sorry if i broke the sarcastic mood but i had to voice my opinion.

Give these bands a listen, and tell me if they fit your idea of what "emo" music is.

Talent=8
***ness=10

Ill admit they have some talent but they are more punk then emo. Nice try for standing up for emo but thats not emo.

It is though... historically accurate. Not "mall emo" which is really like indie emo (ex. Sunny Day Real Estate, Capn Jazz) that slowly fell away from any attachment with its roots. The media likes to latch onto the term though and label anything with a whiny singer and annoyingly untalented guitars as emo.

:laughing:

?

Okay, I wasn't going to say anything, but because of this unwarranted stab:

I had to do this:

correct

um, you can't make up your own style. Alternative pop/rock, punk metal, emo, post-hardcore

no, post-hardcore

as well as alternative pop/rock and indie rock

stop making up styles. Emo, punk revival, punk-pop

post-hardcore and like Christian rock

and indie rock


Wow 2 right! Well done my pet. Now it's fixed.

You know what would be a great idea?...Emo grass, no need for lawn mowers anymore, because it cuts itself. =D

That was lame, i appologise.

K.

"Emo/Screamo is a great genre."

No, that was beautiful.

:rofl:
thats great, right up there with THC enhanced apple trees :thumb:

Do tell.

well basically its the idea of combining apple tree DNA with marijuana DNA to form a tree that produces apples with THC in them...doubt its been done but its been a dream of mine ever since i saw a seedless watermelon.

Dude, it could be an apple tree with marijuana leaves. Sweet.

It is if you listen to actual bands in the genre and not poorly labeled ones.

If it's any type of punk, then it probably sucks.

emo music generally annoys me, but its ok, they will go home and cry to their mum.

I'd like to state this thread was a genius idea for edumacational purposes.

Wow, aren't you mr. open minded!

Ignorance is pretty awesome.

dont get me wrong ive listened,

just the screaming and the vocals general bug the helloutta me.

some of the riffs are good but are spoilt IMO

What have you listened to?

What emo bands did you here that annoyed you.
I will admit that I do not like a lot of screamo. Only the ones where you can really tell that the screamer is yelling at the top of his lungs, and has put a lot of passion into the screaming. This is why I want to hear Indian Summer, I heard that the singer's lyrics sometimes got so personal, that he would actually break down and cry in the middle of a song.

Sounds great

my chemical romance,
bullet for my valentine
mendeed (though could be considered metal)
Fuzagi
Inme


a few others that escape my mind now...

Eh, I have a feeling most people will disagree with those bands being emo, save a few.

Fugazi are boardline emo, Inme..well aren't emo, MCR and Bullet for my valentine and MCR? Nope, havn't heard Mendeed but im guessing they aren't. Emo/Screamo bands.
