| Aiden shouldn't even be classified as music. They suck so bad. 2. I totally agree. This is a comic making website, and we should be talking about political issues and news articles. Not music, even though I love music. | ||

| 2.4. If you dont like them dont read them. Freedom of Speech allows this stuff to happen, and its even in the form specified for music | ||
 |
| I like FFTL and Aiden, they just don't belong here... | ||
25. 24 Oct 2006 02:26 | bubblegumfairy3456789 |
| Aiden is gothic, but FFTL belongs here | ||
|
| How is FFTL emo? I think they're more screamo, which has roots in emo but is not emo. Besides, emo is notorious for sucky guitar parts. FFTL actually has complex and challenging arrangements. | ||

| Aiden doesn't belong anywhere that concerns music. They aren't music at all. | ||
30. 25 Oct 2006 22:36 | heartagram_666 |
| Unfortunately I must agree that Aiden is more sound than music. I still like it enough though. | ||
31. 26 Oct 2006 02:32 | bubblegumfairy3456789 |
| I would tottaly teach you of the meaning of emo, but Im just sick of these fucking posers who doesn't even know what emo is. | ||
 |
| Is there really such thing as "emo"? Basically, it's a term used to define a type of music; but even that can never really be agreed on by people arguing which bands are "emo." People are never one thing or another completely. Personally, it seems to me like making apples out of all the green fruits. | ||
|
| 32. Who would want to pose as an emo? 33.Yes there is such a genre as emo. Rock, hip hop, rap, rap-metal, reggae, alternative, pop, etc. are all genres aren't they? | ||
34. 26 Oct 2006 03:03 | bubblegumfairy3456789 |
| 34. Emo is a type of music. But people can't fit into categories. | ||

| I did not write this, so don't call me a plaigarist [heartagram] Emo does not stand or emotional. Emo isn't that whiney rich kid in your algebra class who whines about how much his life sucks. Emo isn't that shit you see in Hot Topic or on MTV. Emo isn't My Chemical Romance or Taking Back Sunday or Dashboard Confessional or Bright Eyes. Emo is not a mindset. Emo is not a person, or type of person. Emo is not a corporate trend. Emo is not tight pants or moronic hair. Emo is not a fashion. "Emo" is not the use of diluted, meaningless metaphors and similes such as "My arms are like pinecones," and most definitely is not the rampant use of words such as "autumn," "heart," "knife," "bleeding," "leaves," and "razorblade." Emo is not cutting your wrists because your girlfriend dumped you and your mother wouldn't stir your chocolate milk. Emo is not bad music. Emo is the term used for an underground movement of music in the mid-80's through the early-90's. What does emo mean? Emo is emotionally charged hardcore punk rock or "emotive hardcore". It is simply just a subgenre of hardcore. (Hardcore punk meaning bands like Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Black Flag, FEAR, etc.) In the original incarnation, the term emo was coined to describe the sound of (Washington) DC area bands such as Rites of Spring, Embrace (Ian MacKaye's transitional band after Minor Threat and before Fugazi), Dag Nasty, One Last Wish, Moss Icon, Grey Matter, and Fire Party, Rites of Spring being the first actual emo band. Most of these bands sound nothing like today's "emo". In 1985 in Washington, D.C., Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto, veterans of the DC hardcore music scene, decided to shift away from what they saw as the constraints of the basic style of hardcore and the escalating violence within the scene. They took their music in a more personal direction with a far greater sense of experimentation, bringing forth MacKaye's Embrace and Picciotto's Rites of Spring. The style of music developed by Embrace and Rites of Spring soon became its own sound. (Hsker D's 1984 album Zen Arcade is often cited as a major influence for the new sound.) As a result of the renewed spirit of experimentation and musical innovation that developed the new scene, the summer of 1985 soon came to be known in the scene as "Revolution Summer". Within a short time, the DC emo sound began to influence other bands such as Moss Icon, Nation of Ulysses, Dag Nasty, Shudder To Think, Fire Party, Marginal Man, and Gray Matter, many of which were released on MacKaye's Dischord Records. The original wave of DC emo finally ended in late 1994 with the collapse of Hoover. Where the term emo actually originated is uncertain, but members of Rites of Spring mentioned in a 1985 interview in Flipside Magazine that some of their fans had started using the term to describe their music. By the early 90s, it was not uncommon for the early DC scene to be referred to as emo-core, though it's unclear when the term shifted. As the DC scene expanded, other scenes began to develop with a similar sound. In San Diego in the early 1990s, Gravity Records released a number of records in the hardcore emo style. Bands of the period included Heroin, Indian Summer, Angel Hair, Antioch Arrow, Universal Order of Armageddon, Swing Kids, and Mohinder. At the same time, in the New York/New Jersey era, bands such as Native Nod, Merel, 1.6 Band, Rye Coalition and Rorschach were feeling the same impulse. Many of these bands were involved with the ABC No Rio club scene in New York, itself a response to the violence and stagnation in the scene and with the bands that played at CBGBs, the only other small venue for hardcore in New York at the time. Much of this wave of emo, particularly the San Diego scene, began to shift towards a more chaotic and aggressive form of emo, nicknamed screamo. By and large, the more hardcore style of emo began to fade as many of the early era groups disbanded. Even still, a handful of modern bands continue to reflect emo's hardcore origins, including Circle Takes the Square, Hot Cross, City of Caterpillar, Funeral Diner, and A Day in Black and White. Back in DC, following the disbanding of both Rites of Spring and Embrace, MacKaye and Picciotto decided to join forces in a new band, called Fugazi. While Fugazi itself was not categorized as emo, the music it created would soon influence the second major wave of emo. Emo, and it's various incarnations, is very good underground music if you're a fan of raw, aggressive, fast-paced music with introspective lyrics. Emo is NOT bad music! Generally, if you're a fan of punk rock, hardcore, indie, or even grindcore or metal, you'll probably like emo/screamo. Today, the words "emo" and "screamo" are often (incorrectly) used on bands like Dashboard Confessional, Senses Fail, My Chemical Romance, Atreyu, the Used, and Bright Eyes. (Bright Eyes, has nothing to do with emo, they're a folk-indie rock band.) The other bands, however, are nothing more than pop music or mallcore (which is pop music itself in a more "br00tal" form). The labels "emo" and "screamo" are slapped onto almost every teeny-bopper pop band with "angst-ridden" lyrics and members that are "so HAWT LOLZ" by the three M's: the Music industry, the Media, and MTV. They all have the same basic formula and sound with a couple different variations. Most of these bands have nothing to do with hardcore, punk, or emo music at all. Also, emo is used to describe a lot of a "depressed" kids that cut. These kids aren't emo, they're just retarded attention-whores for the most part. If you want to insult someone who claims to be "emo", the most appropriate names for these corporate cock-sucking zombies, are "scenesters" or "scene kids".

| 35. Yes you can. It is classified under alternative almost 100% of teh time 36. Yeah sure we all knew that. What I don't get is the whole "Ahhh there are so many emo posers? WTF? I rock and you don't. Sheez." thing going on, you know? | ||
|
| 36. Emo has come to be associated with those things. While it is not the original intention of the movement, that is now what it is. It is universally accepted. My arms are like pinecones. | ||
