emocology 

The very serious study of emos and scenesters. The Ministry of Emocology dedicates itself not so much to the preservation of emos, but rather to the protection of the outside world. The Ministry of Emocology recently began serious work on the overpopulation problem of emos in the World of Emo forum at LivingWithStyle.com. Emo hunting licenses have been doled out for a nominal fake internet money fee. Those caught poaching without a license are dealt with seriously.
"Dude, the Ministry of Emocology says that emos are a threat hotter than global warming and more suicidal than al Qaeda!"

The older harder version of emo. Emocore was what emo was called in the mid '80s when it was first started. Rites Of Spring was the first emocore band, but not many people knew about them. One of the members of Rites Of Spring joined Fugazi when it first started. Ian Mackaye, who was also the inventor of Straight Edge, wanted to copy ROS's style, but make it more like hardcore so that more people agreed with it. After them came Jawbreaker, who widened emocore's by going more into modern and indie rock. Sunny Day Real Estate, who came out at around the same time as Jawbreaker, did the same.
Emocore bands are: Alexisonfire, Underoath, Saosin, A Static Lullaby, The Bled, Dead Poetic, From Autumn To Ashes, Engine Down, Thursday, Finch, Dismissed, Matchbook Romance, Earth Crisis, Snapcase and Boysetsfire.
