Default The "Emo sucks ass" thread

This is just a thread where you can bash all the proclaimed "emo bands"...which ones suck the most balls might you ask?

MCR
Fall Out Boy
Bullet for my Valentine

I could go on and on, but how in the hell did this sort of music become popular anyway? It's like they took Kurt Cobain's mentality and then just pussified it...

LOL could not agree with you more.

I will lay off from naming the bands/artists though since there are quite a few that I like and my mates don't and vice versa but each to his own I guess.

Theres many problems with this, some of the bands that they label emo hold slight post-emo influences but a lot of those influences they have are not from the original emo movement at all, and are from that the post-emo bands drew from elsewhere. In addition to that the genre itself has no set standards, it seems to be alot of times set by the clothes the band wears or what they decide is emo. Bands they label emo have ranged from heavily prog influenced Coheed and Cambria, to singer/songwriter Bright Eyes, to metalcore act Norma Jean to pop bands like Panic! At The Disco and My Chemical Romance.

Well you can tell by the title that it wasn't something you were going to like. If these guys want to talk about it, so be it. This thread prevents the spamming of other threads.
