Why get so caught up in the genres.
What's REAL and "NOT REAL" emo?
What is that?
Listen to music because you like it.
Who gives a nut if they're "real emo" or not?

^Many people do... Its sad but true.

Very true, I must say.

This is one of those subjects that people seem to fight over soooo much. I hear about it all the time. People say our band is emo, people say our band isan't emo. People argue... I happen to believe it does fall at least somewhat into the emo / emocore genre because our lyrics mainly consist of subjects that are emotional in nature. I don't know if you would say that is enough to call it emo, but who knows. Its just peoples opinion anyway. You should like a band for their music, not what catagory they (or their fans) put themselves into. Sometimes classification can help people find new bands, but other than that, I don't really see that it helps a whole lot.

Your band is neither emo nor emocore. If you would like to learn a little about the emo genre www.fourfa.com does a pretty good job covering it. Although you might not agree with him 100%, he does bring up a lot of good bands.

I had read it prior to your post. It does have a pretty good history. But then again, I think this this is one of those things thats defined by the opinion of many people. At least thats my perspective.

this website will never change.

nor will its people.

i guess i've always thought that any music that moves me or makes me feel something has been my emo. generally those that manage that tend to fall into what i assume the majority would agree is emo. i'm not really bothered whether the person next to me agrees with what bands i drop within that ctaegory, and i assume nobody else does, because it's the music that you listen to, not the genre.

^ I doubt you can really say that "any music that moves me or makes me feel something has been my emo". I listen to a Bon Jovi track and I feel emotion. Bon Jovi isnt emo.
