Emo is the best punk music (genre, quote, band, emo)

It takes like three minutes to browse the emo education thread and not sound like an idiot.

Several emo bands have just as strong political messages as the punk bands (Daniel Striped Tiger for instance), and a large majority of emo/screamo bands consider themselves to play punk music. Of course you have some LATER groups (CTTS/With Horses In Her Eyes) that came along with the soul intention of progressing emo, but it is impossible to deny the links you can hear between a band like Bear and the Butterfly and bands such as The Misfits or Black Flag.

Ampere definitely has a hardcore punk syndrome, in more ways than one.
