Emo Your Views...What Bands Are REAL Emo Bands? (punk, goth)

ArtistInTheAmbulance · 04-29-2005, 10:36 AM

I wouldnt put Jimmy Eat World in 'emo'... And it depends what Brand New youre listening to.. Earlier stuff isnt emo. Well, I wouldnt say so anyway.

I agree with you there. Some of Jimmy Eat World is kinda Emo-ish but then again,some people think that Emo is just a bunch of guys,even if its Slipknot,that are singing about heart break and how they fell in love then got torn up etc which is wrong. I agrre with you too when you said about Eminem,you wouldnt just put someone in a genre when its not them.Anyone care to disagree?

well all of you people asking what bands are emo and what songs are emo, are pointless.

emo is not a minority as much as you wud like to say it is like townies,chavs,goths,skaters,punk, all of these are minorities.

emo is anti-minority, we go against the idea of the world being grouped like herds of sheep because soon enough all the minorities will be one minority called 'the people who are in groups'
and hardly anybody will not be included in this

all except the emos, we dont follow the fashions because we dont see the need to wear wot sum1 else wears, so we wear our own style.

this goes for emo music, emos are named emos not because they try to be emos but because they are naturally involved with the ways of the emos, its the way the truely think of life, thats what makes them emo, they dont think oh thats an emo band i gotta listen to them, they think 'o this bands music has so much relation to my life it makes me wanna cry' THATS EMO MUSIC
so to all the people trying to stereotype emo music, get a life dudes there no point

Holy crap thats confusing.

So youre 'anti-minority', but 'hardly anybody will be included in this'?

And you 'dont follow the fashions', thats why you all wear the same things...

I especially like this : "emos are named emos not because they try to be emos but because they are naturally involved with the ways of the emos, its the way the truely think of life, thats what makes them emo"

I see. So you guys were naturally born this way. Fair enough.
EDIT: So what's the way that emo's truly think of life? Im interested. Because last time I checked, emo wasn't a way of life.

You know, I have no problem with emo music. Just a lot of the "emos" as you called them. Just stop thinking youre something different, ok? If you go out of your way to fit in with the emo fashion, then how the hell are you different? It just makes no sense. I went into town last weekend, and I saw a huge group of "emos". They were all dressed up, all looking pretty much the same with slight variations. They just strike me as very very insecure people. Im secure enough in myself that I know who I am, and I dont feel the need to dress up. I wear what I want, because I dont want other people to look at me and think "Oh she's a punk" or "Oh, shes a goth" or whatever. I dont want that. I'd rather be looked at as a person, thank you.

yo dudes, emos dont wear the same ****ing things, if u grew up n opened ur eyes u wud see dat people who wear the same that r considered emos are actually not ****ing emos! thay are posers, read it, memorize it eat it!
and how the **** did that confuse u wen u oviously didnt read it properly, theres u acting all slosh sayin that i just wanna fit in with the emos, as i was sayin i dont do the ' oh i hav black hair, glasses and a white belt, im an emo' thing

dont wear glasses, mi belts are notmally pink and mi hair is blondey brown
so b4 u criticise anyone u wanna see the real facts mate
