When did I ever say "The Used are an emo band?" This is not what I'm arguing here. Everyone's saying that The Used aren't emo at all. I'm saying what you just said, they drew influences and consequently emo shows in some of their tracks.

"The Pop Group draw influences from dub and jazz music as well as numerous other genres. Does this make them a dub band? No."

Having influences is entirely different to applying those influences directly into your music. DT's primary influences are mostly prog-rock band like Yes, Rush and Pink Floyd. This doesn't mean DT are are just clones of them. But they took the prog-rock elements from that music and made it their own by making it heavier and whatever. So they have many prog metal tracks, but of course, not all their music is prog metal. So if someone asked me what type of music DT played, I wouldn't say yeah they're a prog metal band; I'd say they play all sorts from heavy metal, prog-rock, prog-metal, neo-prog, hard rock, etc.
