Emo

Emo is a sort of commercialized angst, or at least a fashion movement.

Emo does not equal "emotional", I think it is music that is almost fake. Bands that aren't only selling their music, but selling their clothes or hairstyles. If a musician has deep lyrics, and I really do mean DEEP lyrics, it's not emo then. But if the lyrics are about some random love story a band made up that's like any other song, then yes I would consider it emo. Because they're probably trying SO hard to be deep about their lyrics, but it's just the same as everything else. It's fake.

For example, Secondhand Serenade, Nevershoutnever, or any band/artist like that I would consider emo, because the music seems fake to me. The lyrics suck and is commercialized angst.

Here's bands that are more about their clothes or hairstyles that people would call them emo: Fall out boy, Metro Station, you know...bands like that where the clothes fit the kind of "emo" look. Skinny jeans, black hair (usually parted to the side) and other cutesy-very tight looking clothes.

Now I am aware that emo used to mean music that was emotional/punkish. In the 90's I believe with bands called Rites or Spring.

So, bands that are considered emo, but shouldn't be.
BRIGHT EYES! That's like, the best fucking band in the world but people call it emo because it's emotional. Yes, it's emotional, BUT if you think about what emo means now (commercialized angst, style of clothing) it's nothing close to it. I guess any indie sounding band is consindered emo. Like Death Cab For Cutie. Nope nope nope. NOT EMO.
Once the "want to become emo" read through all the websites and looked up bands that websites considered emo, he gave himself a total make-over. First, he needed to get the right emo wear, so he bought some skinny jeans and dyed his hair black, and painted his nails red and black. Now that he has been partly sucked into this emo style, he needed to learn the right music to listen to. The websites told him to listen to My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Taking Back Sunday and any band that screams that whole time. The emo kid didn't really understand what made all the bands emo, but he did it anyways, because that is what the websites and shows on MTV have been telling him.

But then, he read that he had to cut himself and believe himself to be depressed. So, he started to fake being depressed, until he believed himself so well, that he cut too deep and died.

Emo

Someone who bops their bussy to bands such as: My chemical Romance, Panic! At the disco, Fall out boy and Twenty one pilots.

You can often see a wild emo in a corner crying to: The song that may or may not contain a G-note, Northern downpour (God Ryan, please come back.), Goner and What a catch, Donnie.
Average human being: Oh, John! Have you heard the new song on the top 40's?

John the Emo: WhAt aRe ThE tOP 40's?? I oNlY kNOw tHReE cHeeRs For sWEeT rEvEngE!1!!1!1!!!1!

Average human being: God, You're so emo.

Emo "metal"

As we all know, this is just a contradictio interminis meaning that the substantif itself excludes the adjective
Because metal is supposed to have texts about the end of the world, the devil, death and decay, and be happy about all off this.
Emo just cry by even thinking about this stuff, and are never happy.
Birth is always painful, Decaying in the womb trapped within this body
A bleeding human tomb gutted bitch lies dead emptied of the child
chewing on the cords its life line to this world afterbirth is flowing
The stench is overwhelming
My body, growing stronger, my pain turns to torture
Severing its bloodline
A butchered infant carcass
Meat from the unborn, the freshest kills
Chopped up children bathing in blood
Contoured and festering I rot in disgust
Re-generation of my body
Mother ripped apart
Smashing in her face
My knife cutting holes, fucking her remains
Esophogus carved out
Crushing cartilage
Bile oozing from punctures in your liver
Riping meat within
Chewing in intestine
Bladder spurting urine, sight of defecation now grow infection
The child ripped to shreads
Drinking its excretions
Zombification ejaculation over mutilation
On the Mothers body hacked into pieces
The sludges from my cock gives her life once again
Sewing the remains of the child deep within her
Reborn through evil
My torture known throughout Hell
Heed to his calling, the demons await my next kill
Carnage is my fetish
Body cavities scraped of guts
Brains seeping from cracks as my axe continues to hack

Just imagine this for an Emo crowd ... Emo "metal" should be related to this if it would exist ...

emo kid

There are WAY many people complaining about emo kids.
Grow up. Please for the sake of this world.
Grow up. Any way yeah. Emo is not rimmed horn glasses, tight pants, and band Ts. It is not caring about what people say. It can be very hard but yes that is what it means! God you people stop posting that emo kids are annoying. Annoying emo kids are the poser kind. Here is my list of emo defiitions

Real Emo- Doesn't care. There are many reasons why they don't care any more. One reason could be that they are just to jaded from parent, freinds, random peeps from school ect. Some cut. Some don't It really maters on the person. They may wear black. They may not. The point is, is that emo people don't care if some one makes fun of them
Real Emo music- The Used, Underoth, From First to Last, and Afi. (that's all that I can name off the top of my head)

Posser Emo- May or may not cut. Uashully wears all black. Thinks they have a real reason to be depressed when they really don't. They tried to be goth but they failed at that and became emo.
Posser Emo music- Dashboard Confessionals, Good Charolate, and Simple Plan. (I am not saying these bands aren't good I'm just saying Posers ushually love them)
Semi-Emo - The mix of normal kid and real emo. They don't care what people think of them yet they tend to give in to people and get feelings hurt easily.
Semi-Emo music- see real emo. (sometimes semi emos music is softer)

All emos or bulimic/anerexic- hardly ever
All emos draw anemi-ushually tru but not always
All emos cut- False
All emos are bi/gay- Not Always
All emos wear black- ushually true but not always
Boy 1: Hey it's an emo kid!
Real emo: fag
Boy 2: you're the fag
Real emo: *looks at Boy 2 weird*
Boy 2: you gonna go cut yourself now?
Boy 1: Or are you gonna go draw us some anime?*laughs histaricaly*
Real emo: *flips off boy number 1&2 and walks away*

Boy 1: Hey it's an emo kid!
Emo Poser: *walks away to go cut*

Sitoution 2:
Girl 1: Ewww...two gay emo guys
Emo boy 1: We're not gay you idiot.
Emo boy 2: Hey wanna get some pizza
Emo boy 2: Yeah I'm starved

Girl 1: Girl 1: Ewww...two gay emo guys
Emo boy poser1: *starts crying*
Emo boy poser2: It's okay. let's just go back home and listen to Dashboard Confessional.
Emo boy poser1: *sniff* okay.
