And I know I copied alot of that stuff in the other thread I made from MX but it isn't as if I didn't specifically state that in the post and I even asked when I posted there if it was OK to copy it. I only posted it here coz I guessed it'd be helpful because there was much less real emo discussion here then, than there is now.

Fair enough to that, I thought she was reffering to your other thread and I believe you did state it was from MX and i thought she was congratulating you on that and i was just pointing out you didnt actually do it and theres about to be an emo education thread made once riseagainstrocks PMs me back with the grammar corrections.

They definitly aren't soft rock now are they. I dont know what you'd catagorize them as, but as for me, they're screamo.

newer underoath, id say its pop punk with a screamo influence. ive even heard people here call their older stuff metalcore. im not so sure about that, but ive got a pretty good idea on their new stuff.

sleepy jack · 02-06-2006, 07:48 PM

Old stuff is metalcore, and they slowly became a second wave post hardcore band. Its to screamy to be pop punk and its not punk enough to be it either. Either way they aren't christian at all anymore, and the band has changed alot (member wise).

^contradictory to that...i saw them at warped last year, and they said that they "do everything they do in the name of christ".

so aparently they are somewhat christian.

Thats not true at all, the album on their first lyrics are very christian. On "They're Only Chasing Safety" they aren't at all, they're typical "emo" lyrics.

i never said their lyrics were christian. i said that the band actually told their audience that they do everything they do in the name of christ. that has absolutely nothing to do with their lyrics.

When I said "either way they aren't christian at all anymore" I was reffering to the music.
