First look up "emo". Emocore is the hardest, most outrageous, and sometimes most annoying perversion of an otherwise quality subsect of punk rock. It should be noted that emocore may result from a poser trying too hard to be emo.
If anyone knows who "Strong Sad" is, he is a good example of such behavior.

all along the lines of Emo, but more emotionally charged music then emotionally charged lyrics. This means, their are often heavy guitars and the occasional screaming.
also known as Emo-Screamo

A made up music genre. By the media to describe melodic hardcore punk bands,that wrote personel and sad lyrics or song in a whiny style of voice. And of course everybody likes to say that the beginning of emocore started with rites of spring. They actually just are a bad sounding post-hardcore band. In the mid 80s they wrote more mellodic songs with personel lyrics. When they played shows some of crowd thought that the songs were so sad that they cried like they were the beatles. These people were called emo. In the 90s the band jawbreaker wrote a sad little song about getting drunk instead of kissing a girl. And got called emo. Sunny day real estate though may be the only emo band because of their sound but only for one song seven. Then the media made it out like to be emo write a song like jawbreaker and sound like sdre. Sunny day real estate is mainly a band that mixes grunge and hardcore. They did one whiny record and that was it. There is no band that comes out saying that there emo. But the only band I know that sounds simuler are to sdre is taking back sunday. But there not emo either.
Sunny day real estates song seven is the only true emocore song. btw people that say the cure is emo,probably has down syndrone

Root words: Emotional, Hardcore. Joining them together to simply meaning extremely Emotional, or Emo. To say that a person or a thing is 'Emocore', is to say that they are totally and completely into the Emo Lifestyle.
