Screamo (rock, genre, album, fan, show)

Ok, I don't want to start a genre war here or anything... but some of the bands people are posting I thought were more hardcorish...

I'm by no means an expert, so I'm hoping to get the genre fiends opinions on this.

In the hardcore thread I posted As I Lay Dying, FAtA, Hopesfall, etc. As did others, everyone accepted they were hardcore... yet in this forum people are saying their screamo. Which is it, what's teh difference... I kinda thought I knew until this came up...

Sorry for bringing up the whole genre thing... from the little time I've been on this board i kinda noticed that genre labeling is a touchy issue.
