Emo didn`t become mainstream because all of a sudden thousands of teenagers in the late 90s started buying a 15 year old rites of spring album.
If you read my original post in this thread you`ll see what i`m getting at.

Uh so, basically, all these bands bayside, anberlin, alexisonfire, bullet for my valentine, the used, my chemical romance, etc... are all emo bands because some of them contain slight emo influences? I Killed The Prom Queen is also emo because they sing about cutting themselves? Some bands probaly do have emo influences, but that wouldn't make them emo. That'd be like considering every band influenced by the ramones pop-punk and or bubblegum punk.
