And I mean illest like they got some style, the got some flair, and you ain't gonna be able to match it. You think you hot, but you not. You know what I'm saying? Your ****'s no good here, cuz Sailboats said so."

one of the most hilarious combination of stereotypes rolled into one person: house ******/skramz noob

http://z.about.com/d/crime/1/0/5/S/a_anderson.jpg

I wonder if there's a relation. . .

I'm not seeing it.

hahahaha, i was actually just thinking about this dude when hes listening to yaphet kotto.

He's wearing a horse the band shirt and has mutton chops. Did he say he was a musician too?

This guy is the perfect embodiment of the scene.

Plus he's praising an overhyped band that only recorded 2 ****ing (mediocre) songs, and is only well known for making a ****ing decent 45 second intro.

I mean, seriously...

(all the anger is from the confusion of why people like them so much...)

haha yeah i know, the only song i like from them is behind trees, honestly i think the hype comes from loma prieta.

I have never hear any of these people except for the ones you said weren't emo LOL

haha, then check them out!

cant pick ten songs so ill say some bands. escape the fate, hawthorne heights a day to remember, panic at the disco, paramore, 30 seconds to mars ....... do green day and papa roach count?

They ALL don't count actually... Maybe you should read the Emo Education thread...

Rites of Spring- Drink Deep
Hoover- Cuts Like Drugs
Maximilian Colby- Balance
Angel Hair- You were ugly but you got cute again
Sleepytime Trio- 30 Equals
Roadside Monument- Sunken Anchor
Native Nod- Bread
Current- Bastille
Four Fundred Years- Suture
Shotmaker- About half of Mouse Ear (forget me not); too good for just one

I'm bad at favorites, but I like this list. I'm not a big FHY fan generally, and I only recently tracked down more Current stuff, so my top bands list might be different.
Also, I didn't even get into the indie-emo side, that would make it too hard (unless Roadside Monument counts).

i like your taste in music. current is a great band.

think my top ten are by these bands:

Built to Spill
Piebald
Hot Water Music
Small Brown Bike

ah hell i'll go ahead and throw Seldom in there too

Cap'n Jazz - "Oh Messy Life"
Lion Of The North - "Ghost Stories"
Indian Summer - "I Think Your Train Is Leaving"
Don Martin Three - "End Of This Tunnel" (Fire As A Metaphor 3)
Indian Summer - "Touch The Wings Of An Angel...Doesn't Mean You Can Fly"
Angel Hair - "Lazy Eye"
Angernon Cadwallader - "Casual Discussion In A Dome Between Two Temples"
Rites Of Spring - "For Want Of"
Saetia - "Venus And Bacchus"
Funeral Diner - "Direct Hit"

I actually haven't owned End on End for a couple years, as it was in my Alpine when it got jacked back in the 10th grade. I just bothered to download it recently for whatever reason.
"For Want Of" is very good, but I was always way into the chord progression and background vocals in "Drink Deep." That finale's intense too; I was bumping it in my dorm room and I got even a little bit more embarassed than I usually am about emo/hardcore in college.

If I did an indie-emo list it would probably just consist of Braid and Cap'n Jazz- I guess maybe an Anniversary song too, but I'm never too sure about the Anniversary.

Oh, and I like the Angel Hair inclusion.

Cap'n Jazz - Rocky Rococo
Mineral - If I Could
Off Minor - Practice Absence
Drive Like Jehu - Sinews
Bear vs. Shark - Song About Old Roller Coasters
Braid - Killing A Camera
Sunny Day Real Estate - Grendel
Texas Is The Reason - Johnny On The Spot
American Football - But The Regrets Are Killing Me

This thread needs more Cap'n Jazz

No order.

Ampere - The Old World is Behind Us
Circle Takes the Square - Non Objective Portrait Of Karma
I Hate Myself - Not Waving but Drowning
Cap'n Jazz - Oh, Messy Life
Christie Front Drive - Away
Sunny Day Real Estate - In Circles
Hot Cross - Fortune Teller
Hot Cross - Finger Redux
Owls - Everyone Is My Friend (tough to decide between this and What Whorse You Wrote Id On)
Saetia - Closed Hands

Most threads need more Cap'n Jazz : )

I'm gonna count Post- Emo, because my list would really suck without it.

Empire! Empire!- How to Stay Afloat in a Sea of Change
ATDI- Farenheit
The Saddest Landscape- The Stars in January
Empire! Empire!- With Your Greatest Fears Realized, You Will not be Comforted
Castevet- Stranger, You Know

The Candyland Carcrash - The Pain Will Double if You Leave Me Now
The Candyland Carcrash - Baffled on the Seventh Floor

Lion of the North - There's Always Next Year
The Shivering - Every Breath
Arrows - Clean Sheets Aren't Just For Keepers.

Good god, there is post emo now? I might be behind on this one since I don't listen to emo, but I still find this kind of funny.

I haven't heard this term really, but seeing how the "emo" category spans 25 years or so of music I'm not that surprised that "post-emo" is being used.

circle takes the square - a crator to cough in obv

i'm not here to start an argument, just to find some good new music, but i want to point out that i've never heard emo being used in the "music world" as a genre, so i'm thinking you can't really say what is emo and what's not, since it's not really a genre or hasn't been considered one by the music industry, js.

uhm, i would also like to point out that you can't say that one screamo band isn't emo and that another is, as they are both the same genre but you're classifying them as emo.. the only genre of music i've heard that's anywhere close to "emo" is emotive hardcore, but being called emo if you like emotive hardcore is considered an insult,
so i really don't understand this whole, emo genre thing.

Give this baby a little gander.

The Emo Education Thread

"emo"?

Isn't that the word for "music" made by people who don't know how to play their instruments.

Hi there. You seem to have forgotten that this is under the punk section. Additionally, many emo bands have at least competent musicians.

Oh yeah.

But aren't The Clash considered punk?

And J. Mascis played guitar for GG Allin - he is MORE than "competent" as a musician...

And isn't "competent" synonymous with "run of the mill" "average" or "mediocre"?

Ignorance isn't always bliss isn't it?

Usually, but not always.

I wish my lawn was emo...

So it would cut itself.

And I wish idiots would stop posting...

Because they post dumb shit.

1. anything from MCR
2. anything from Fall Out Boy
3. Hawthorne Heights - Ohio Is For Lovers
4. Silverstein - That one song with the screaming and the whining
5. Alexisonfire - That other song with the screaming
6. And You Will Know Us By The Trail of the Dead - That One Song With An Extremely and Pointlessly Long Song Title By a Band With An Equally Long and Annoying Band Name That Goes On and On and On Until Your Sick of Naming The Whole Song and You Just Figure **** It
