1 word to describe emo? hmm...i dunno but one word comes to mind, it starts with an S, followed swiftly by a H, tailed closely by an I and finishing with a T.

Why would you take the time to say that? This is one of those lame posts where the line is drawn between completely retarded, and someones opinion

Ok, I wear the tight T-shirts, I side-part the hair, I have the lip pierced at the side. I'm an emo-kid in appearance, and this has caused many an insult to be hurled at me from the dark depths of the metalheads corner of the warehouse where I work. But hey, I listen to much heavier stuff. Dillinger Escape Plan, Killswitch Engage? Emo? I think not. I think emo is a very imprisoning term anyway. If you can put The Blood Brothers and Dashboard Confessional in the same genre, there's something wrong.

LedZepStu, I can't think of one word to describe it. But I can think of one word to describe Led Zepelin... Fill in the blanks... S_it

^ don't insult zeppelin, if you don't acknowledge that they were hugely influential and an amazingly talented band, you don't know music. Of course his comment was ignorant and useless, but please don't make the forums worse by retaliating on the same level, it serves absolutely no purpose, and just ends up making you look like just as big of an a**.
