Real Emo: Emotionally charged hardcore punk. Bands like Rites of Spring, Jawbreaker, Fugazi (emo by association)

Emo Today: Emotionally charged pop punk. Bands like My Chemical Romance, Hawthorne Heights, Fall Out Boy. This is not real emo, this was emo after being watered down, and stripped of anything that would've actually made it emo in order to sell it to the MTV watching masses.

There's also Post-Emo, which is the transitional period between emo and emo today (most emo today is influenced by these bands). That would be bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Jets to Brazil, The Promise Ring, etc. It's emo mixed with Post-Hardcore.

Indie: Any band or artist on an independent label. There is no indie genre, it's a word used to describe other genres. For example, Indie Pop, [General] Indie Rock, Indie Rap (usually called Underground Rap), etc.

I don't trust your opinion because you don't think Green Day are pop-punk and you're in a Nu-Metal band, so I guess we're even.

And besides, what I just said about emo? That wasn't opinion, that was fact.

I asked you to name me some good Nu-Metal bands in the other thread, and all you named were the same ****ty bands that get played all over the radio and MTV. Barring ATDI (who aren't even Nu-Metal), all of them were crap. So unless there's some secret underground of good Nu-Metal bands that I'm missing (I highly doubt that, as Nu-Metal is the Grunge of today), yes, the entire genre does suck.

Rammstein,NIN,SOAD(i dont like them but lots of people do),KoRn,Slipknot,Muderdolls..
I guess 1 out of 6 ain't bad.

I hope you're ready for another pwning, because there's no way you can argue what I said about emo, other than "You called ____ pop-punk, so you MUST be wrong!"

And based on the fact that Nu-Metal, as a genre, is just plain bad, I'm going to warrant a guess that Murderdolls aren't very good.

I know I'm not going to like it, so I'd rather not waste my time.

Are you kidding? Fall Out Boy are considered to be an "emo" band. What, exactly, do people call them?
