Screamo
As the top definition says screamo is "a term that refers to recent bands that play old style emo". Most pinpoint the first use of the term to Saetia. Screamo however, existed long before Saetia did, with bands such as Heroin and Antioch Arrow pioneering the genre at the Ché Café in San Diego. Far were the first band with a screamo album, 1996's Tin Cans with Strings to You.
In the contemporary era, screamo is now used to describe bands within the post-hardcore and metalcore genres (e.g A Skylit Drive, new Underoath, Dance Gavin Dance). While some of these artists do not mind the term screamo, others reject it as they are only defined screamo just because of their use of screaming in songs.
In my own words, (anyone can disagree with me) the genre screamo should refer to bands who's vocals are primarily screaming (Alexisonfire do not count), a much heavier beat and rhythm than emo and artists who are confident to live under the label (even though we all know labels are pretty dumb) :P
