the WORST emo poseur band (lead singer, pop, rock, single)

Zealious · 03-07-2005, 04:12 PM

In this thread you can say which band you hate the most that some think are emo.

For me it would have to be Hawthorne Heights. I usually don't make judgments about bands before I listen to them, so I listened to "Ohio is for Lovers". It is by far one of the worst P.o.S songs I have ever heard. The guy talks about slitting wrists, but he probably doesn't even know what it is. Its just really bad an unoriginal. I hate them more than simple plan, GC, and MCR.

So... which band do YOU dislike?

Fall Out Boy. I dont understand why people class them as emo.. Theyre just annoying. They're in that 'annoying' genre... Yes, thats a genre

BUT if I was going to pick the worst 'emo poseur band' (which I thought this was gonna be) Id pick My Chemical Romance. I actually have nothing against them, I enjoy listening to them, but they're really not emo.

i agree..there was always something about hawthorne Heights that annoyed the hell out of me

Now i`m no emo expert but having heard this band suck every single bit of life out of Joy Divisions Love Will Tear Us Apart. I would say they are ****ness in abundence.

I`ve never been a fan of Kerrang magazine but apparently they voted this lot the worst band of all time.

I can only agree

The Get Kids Kids have constantly stated that they simply aren't emo, and they've made some great pop rock songs on Four Minute Mile.

but if you want to listen to a guy that thinks he's a vampire be my guest...
