How do you guys define emo? (punk, rap, rock, genre)

Emo is not a very high scoring word in Scrabble.

heh, ya sarcasm on the internet doesn't translate well, but come on, that stuff was all so over the top it was still obvious.

active, please do not post again, lest you realize that you are, indeed, a moron.

also, please don't ever ask for a definition of emo, especially via the internet. i've seen too many threads degenerate via mindless arguements.

did you even bother to look at any other threads before you posted this? There's a load of threads either asking what emo is or describing it...there's no need to make another thread when you can look at old ones to find your answers

You're all so pathetic if you're in a music forum talk about music...in an emo forum talk about emo...Talk about Fu*king music...not "hair" Jeez if I wanted to do that I wouldn't have come in here...I just merely thought you guys may have different views on what emo is but no istead I get told to stop talking...If you guys can't recognise that I wasn't asking what an emo should "look like" but what you thought defined "emo MUSIC" , phew...This forum is rubbish I thought I could come on here and talk about music instead I get attacked for asking a SIMPLE question which was on my mind...

your question is dumb
don't ask dumb questions and you
won't get attacked its just that simple.

why define anything? defining would only be limiting it, and putting limitations on music ruins it.

How true. Emo is not a genre. Emo is... a state of mind perhaps. So many bands have emo songs, emo albums, emo periods. The "emo band" does not exist.
