Bands that, much like emo kids themselves, all look and sound very similar. In fact, there may be pretty much no difference between Emo Band A and Emo Band B. That's how annoying it can get.
Emo bands may have a lot of potential, but sadly, it is all wasted because they try too hard to fit under one stereotype, just like the average emo kid. Characteristics of emo bands:
1. The singer sounds just like Adam Lazzara 2. Some of the lyrics may be screamed 3. Poppy sound 4. Very simple guitar riffs 5. Two or more of the band members have "emo hair," and the singer is usually one of them 6. Don't forget eyeliner 7. Lyrics include the weirdest, most nonsensical-sounding metaphors ever, something along the lines of "My little period at the end of your sentence..." 8. Songs are about relationships or life in general - they are NEVER optimistic, though they may be upbeat 9. The band members will always deny the "emo" label, much like emo kids (once again) 10. Usually disappear after two or three albums, or with some cases, even one, but not before at least one of their songs becomes a radio hit |

emobands are quite difficult to define as lots of different genres are considered 'emo'and different 'emos' listen to different things and not one single band on this planet agrees when they are labelled emo by abunch of stupid journalists who would not know what emo was if it shoved a burning frok up thier asses
personally bands like thursday (indie/alternative) escape the fate from first to last atreyu are kind of emo but every 'emo'is different and yes an individual as much as you would all like to disagree "OMFG dashboard confessional is one of the hottest emo bands around"says silly 'emo'(if one likes dashborad dont admit it ,you may get bashed by 'emos'who spend all thier time calling everyone else posers

Emo Bands.
There are alot of bands different people would call Emo. Some people say Blink 182 is Emo, while others say Thursday is. My definition of an Emo band, is a band that describes their emotions in lyrics, Morbid, random, romantic. Bands like McFly, Busted, Dashboard confessional arent emo!!!!!!!! Emo bands are:
From first to Last Thursday Funeral for a Friend Saetia Atreyu |

Emo bands are bands that express emotions or feelings through their music, they are not people who sit around crying and slitting wrists like a lot of narrow minded people think. Emo music is often mistaken for pop-rock bands and sometimes even Kerrang get it wrong, although these bands are really amazing too they are
bands that definately ARENT emo: the all-american rejects - pop-rock fall out boy - pop-rock panic at the disco - dance-rock taking back sunday - pop rock bands that ARE emo are: hawthorne heights funeral for a friend my chemical romance from autumn to ashes dashboard confessional "have you seen any good emo bands recently"
"have you downloaded any emo music yet?" |

Emo is a term used for rock acts centralized around Washington DC in the 80's who tended to get very 'emotional' with their performance on stage.
Now it has just been a lame catch all term for bands who are NOT emo. People think groups like Fall Out Boy, AFI who are in fact East Bay Hardcore, not 'Emotional', I bet you if you told Davey Havok they were 'Emotional', he'd punch your goddamn lights out, Flyleaf, Panic! at the Disco, ect. ect. ect. But these people are just naive little children who like to label and stereotype.
PS. Get a life kids. Emo bands are extinct. |

arn't emo:
Fall out boy My Chemical Romance Funeral for a friend P!atd Silverstein Simple Plan or any band that's been on MTV. Why not? Emotional Hardcore is a part of the DIY (Do It Yourself) Punk, and the bands 'must' do the recording 'all by themselfs'. Even if they hadn't signed up with a big record company, they are not in the right genre anyway! are emo: Embrace Chemical Vocation 1905 Raised by another Die, emperor! Die! Fugazi Mall emokid meets emokid.
MEmo: Hi, heard the new FOB song? Emo: fuck, stop listen to that shit, find some real emo. MEmo: Kid, don't say you're listening to Simple Plan. Jesus.. Emo: dude, have you even heard of some emo bands? MEmo: you bet i have. i listen to mtv all day long, and most thing they are playing is emo. Emo: hahaha. get a life. |

At The Disco Flyleaf (CHRISTIAN BAND) Plain White T's Green Day I hope this list of emo bands and non emo bands helps you but I have aklmost every one of these bands on here don't try to listen to "emo" music to seem cool to people and don't label yourself, then your a little poser.
