Screamo

Screamo is kind of like a type of metal, except it screams on a more positive note.

Screamo: "i've got a secret, its on the tip of my tongue on the back of my lungs and ive gotta keep it...." -Bring Me The Horizon

Metal: "I will bid farewell, sever the ties This is all I am, this is all that's left Turn from deceit, the love of self is death Deliverance is given to you" -Killswith Engage

Screamo

Screamo- a type of music in which the vocalist screams, instead of singing the lyrics. It is similar to post-hardcore music, but unlike post-hardcore (in which there is more singing) there is a lot more screaming.

Not all bands that scream are screamo. Bands such as PTV or SAS are not screamo.

Has a completely different fan base than then emo music, and is not happy being called emo. Though many emo's do enjoy screamo music, not all screamo fans should be labeled emo. They are a like, but not the same.

Screamo- A type of music people who think they're better need to stop bashing on because it has an actual fan base!

I love Screamo music!

Screamo

Screamo is an anomaly in the sense that it has two different definitions depending on who is using it.

If used by people who listen to metal, it refers to a specific subgenre of emo with a more aggressive and dissonant sound.

If used by people who don't listen to metal, it refers to anything heavier than Metallica.

Friend 1: Hey what're you listening to?
Friend 2: Just hyping myself up with some Sepultura.
Friend 1: Don't they play that screamo shit you used to listen to?
Friend 2: No, that's Black Veil Brides.
