....Name these 'emo' bands you speak of.

lolz. Most people don't know who Moss Icon, Indian Summer, Neil Perry or any of those ****s are so I don't see how a genre that was pretty much ignored will suffer from a bit of publicity. Any bands that you're talking about are more than likely not emo they're probably just alternative rock in tight pants.

Nice cut and paste, I believe every single one of those is from fourfa, yes? I'll give you some cred, you use a link in the edu. thread instead of just using the edu. thread for your cut and paste needs. Now how many of you actually heard?

Reznorslave 08-04-2006 09:50 PM

Probably half

Yeah that's my view, anyway. To be fair of course, it's not just the emo genre. Rap/Country etc, it all seems to be happening in various genre's.

And just so no one can label me and say, "But you said you hated those genres.", I also hate how it is happening to the Alternative and Metal genres.

And I happen to be a big fan of those.

How does your post prove of any relevance. I'm still right most people aren't aware of the bands you posted. And like Ethan said you just copied and pasted because Elliott is spelled wrong and you have it has split lip/chamberlain where most people just pick one.

I also didn't know Fuel could be labeled as emo. I'm a fan of theirs, regardless of how many genres they can fit into.

I understand the point you're making and I see how you would make that point, but it doesn't make sense at the same time.

Emo music as it is called now is really 2 seperate entities. On one hand there is the radio friendly emo. Taking Back Sunday, Hawthorne Heights, etc. This I agree and hope will die out soon.

Emo music that I am defending is very non-mainstream. Almost to a fault. It's usually very unaccessible. Un-marketable, and you have to be a true fan to appreciate it.

You've listened to radio emo and written it off. You probably won't like real emo either. But sometimes, when you just don't know what you're talking about, you should simply not talk.
