wtf are you talking about?
Read the education thread....Please, save yourself.

Its an opinion dude. U dont need education to voice an opinion.

And trust me im all over that thread.

Honestly I think people classify something as emo or screamo because of the lyrics. And thats wrong. And im srry if a rapper started rapping about his tractor does that make it country?

So there you go ... I think this thread is wrong in the first place.

I remember when Story of the year was Screamo. But there not. There pop rock.

You're right, but you need education to voice an opinion that doesn't make you look like an idiot.

emo lyrics what?

Not Emo or Screamo dude.

Story Of The Year was post-hardcore at best. Or are you one of those people who thinks that screamo is any music with screaming? In that case, you'd be wrong because many bands who have nothing to do with screamo or hardcore use screaming. The crunk rock family force 5 has used it, nu-metal bands like Slipknot have used it, and grindcore bands like Anal C*** pretty much base their music off of it.

that's not a good enough answer, tell me what the hell emo or screamo is then if you want to challenge the definition of the entire emo forum.

Dude im trying to say that Emo and Screamo don't exist.

I feel like people say bands are Emo or Screamo because of lyrics. When pop rock, or post punk, or something in that area are usually what they should be classified as.

yes... but aside from all the bull**** pop, there ARE genres called emo or screamo, that have nothing to do with all of that

uh...of course it exists...That's like saying Rock N' Roll doesn't exist. Each genre forms from another one with a special and unique twist, saying a genre doesn't exist when it's widely accepted as a genre is just plan wrong.


Lyrics play a minimal role in defining genre.....and pop rock? I think alot of bands would be pissed to hear that they should be catagorized as pop punk..
