A person who in appearance seems to be emo (black hair, black clothes, skinny jeans, etc.) but listens to punk music and personality wise has more in common with a punk.

Emo: looks like all of their friends, listens to the music the radio tells them to listen to, whiny, wimpy

Punk Emo: tough attitude, anti-fascist, educated, original
stranger: hey emo kid, go cut yourself!
punk emo: fuck that, i'll cut you! (and they proceed to do so)

Punk- People who are rebellious, they don't like being told what to do. They tend to make their own clothes. (Hence the ripped clothing) True punks are non-conformist. So this means they do what they want because they themselves want to infact do that, not because there friends convince them into changing. They want to make an impact on authority to change it for the better. They believe in rebellion, but for a cause thats worth it.

Emo- More of a phase. People who tend to be more emotional and don't handle pain to well. They have a low tolerance for emotions. They don't always wear black, but also don't wear bright colors.

Scene- It's just more of a fashion. They like the goth look, but add neon colors and accessories. (Clip on bow berrets from when you were younger) Almost a Raver/Burner and Goth mixture.
The difference between punk, emo, and scene.

Punks - Not as mean as they look.

Emos - Short for emotional.
Scene - It's just more of a fashion; they like the goth look, but add more color.

A punk into emo punk music. And yes emo is punk music.

emo - short for "emotional." Emo is a broad title that covers a lot of different styles of emotionally-charged punk rock. Emo is a sub genre of hardcore punk music.

The The first wave (1985–1994) of emo music came from bands like Rites of Spring, Moss Icon, Nation of Ulysses, Dag Nasty, Shudder To Think, Fire Party, Marginal Man, and Gray Matter,

The second wave (1994–2000) had bands such as The Get Up Kids, Jimmy Eat World and Texas Is the Reason.

The third wave (2000–Present) has bands such as AFI, Alexisonfire, A Static Lullaby, Brand New, Coheed and Cambria, Fall Out Boy, Finch, From Autumn To Ashes, From First To Last, Funeral for a Friend, Hawthorne Heights, Matchbook Romance, My Chemical Romance, Silverstein, Something Corporate, The Starting Line, Taking Back Sunday, The Used, Thrice, and Thursday.

One of the biggest problems of emo today is punk has abandon the music and culture/movement it created. Although many of these emo bands emerged from legitimate punk rock scenes, they grew to be despised by veteran fans of punk who considered the genre to be fake. So it leads emo to be used by the mainstream music industry and society. Many punks are judgmental and critical of emo just the way people of the past have been of other punk music and punk movents. These veteran punk are in no way different.

That is not what punk is suppose to be about. Its suppose to be oppen to diffrent thing and individualism. There is problems with emo music and the emo movent but unstead of veteran punks being help to these trouble teens, They become critical and judgmental.

If this is what punk has become then maybe it should be dead. Punk instead of being help to emo music and the emo movent it has become apart of the problem in many ways.

Lets keep true punk and true punk ideals alive.
