Emo is the best punk music (hardcore, house, cassette, genre)

some punks sounds a little like emo like the melody but i rarely hear punk songs aobut people wanting to commit suicide and crying about there girl friend breaking up with them so really the only thing punk and emo have in common is like the sort of stuff that started them and the guitar melody(sometimes)

What a coincidence, I rarely hear emo songs about people wanting to commit suicide, other than Saetia.

Emo is the complete offspring of punk.

Edit: And don't tell me punks aren't whiners just because they happen to bitch with harder songs. If anything, the metaphorical lyrics found in most emo songs in no way compare to how much complaining is done in punk songs.

It takes like three minutes to browse the emo education thread and not sound like an idiot.

Several emo bands have just as strong political messages as the punk bands (Daniel Striped Tiger for instance), and a large majority of emo/screamo bands consider themselves to play punk music. Of course you have some LATER groups (CTTS/With Horses In Her Eyes) that came along with the soul intention of progressing emo, but it is impossible to deny the links you can hear between a band like Bear and the Butterfly and bands such as The Misfits or Black Flag.

Why would anyone start a post with emo being the best genre out right now. That is pretty much bs.

That's an empty statement with nothing behind it. As far as anyone knows you don't what emo is.

Ampere definitely has a hardcore punk syndrome, in more ways than one.

Some (stupid) emo bands say they play punk, but mostly its the stupid fans that say their emo music is punk. And that right there is what give alot of emo fans a bad name.

I love emo music and punk music, and I can the tell the ****ing difference!
So I don't want a wrong stereotype being put on me based off of other stupid emo fans.
