anyone who know's anything about "emo" knows that emocore is just a longer way of saying emo...
it's the exact same thing and anyone who thinks A Static Lullaby and The Used are "emo" should be shot in the neck..

Has little or nothing to do with the word "hardcore". The original emo genre burned out in the late 80's as most bands only released their music on 7" vinyl and never really became big. However, emocore takes the conventions of the original emo genre and incorporates it into a more modernised punk style of music - and this is the name given to most emo-esque music today.

Style of music, mixed primarily of punk and metal. The word "emo" comes from emotional. The word "core" comes frm hardcore. Hardcore + Emotion = Emocore.
