Do you like Emo? (lyrics, genre, The Cure, screamo, quote)

gongadin · 04-25-2005, 04:26 PM

I think real emo is alright, but I don't like green day rip-offs that seem to go under being emo, like charlie from busted's new band.

^is everything a green day ripoff to you? seems like it to me.

gongadin · 04-25-2005, 05:32 PM

^no, ive changed my sig and title anyway, after i realised that not many bands were green day rip-offs

.angie. · 04-25-2005, 05:39 PM

although, its mainly like, simple plan that are ripoffs.

Just because a band sounds like another band doesnt make them a rip off y'know...

yeh, it just means that they have no creativity of their own

I'm Emo minded if that makes any sence, plus anyone that meets me automaticaly thinks "Emo"

No it doesnt. It just means that that's the genre they want to play. No two bands are alike anyway, even if its a tribute band. Everyone interprets it differently.

I like most emo because I find that lyrically, emo is interesting. I like the fact that the songs are very mediphorical and in some ways open to inturpritation...most of the time you can relate.
