A disgusting and shitty excuse for music. It sounds like a mixture of barking dogs and dying muppets. Most of the screamo songs are about general pointlessness and are almost impossible to understand what the singers are saying. Useful if your trying to give yourself a bad headache.

Get the Screamomug. An emo band lacking enough talent to play decent music and/or an emo band with a vocalist that lacks the talent to whine melodically. Many screamo bands simply make a horrible racket while the kid with the microphone screams like a spoiled child having a tantrum in the supermarket; not fast enough to be considered grindcore. Other screamo bands play homongenized, emo-pop music, alternating mellodic whiny, self-depreciating and contrived lyrics with a screaming back-up vocalist who usually repeats the first vocalist's drama-rants.
I went to the screamo concert the other day and soon realized it was just a screaming kid banging on pots and pans in the store. It actually sounded better than the screamo concert going on at Tantrumcore Records.

Get the Screamomug. Crap.
Screamo is a so-called genre of so-called music consisting of the godawful noises made by some misguided, pampered, spoiled, suburban white kids who never worked a day in their life passing themselves off as some kind of band. Clueless kids trying to "scream out their angst" because they ran out of better things to do and they can't fart loud enough to really annoy people.

Get the Screamomug. Worst attempt at anything that could be called music. Incorporates good guitarist, bassist, and precussionist (drummer) with shitty whiny vocals. No one cares that you complain about how bad your life supposedly is. See the poor people all around the world? Do you see them making poor excuses for "music"?

Get the Screamomug. An awful genre of music (if you can even call it music), especially popular amongst the emo community, which involves lots of angry metal and lots of screaming.
The only people who listen to screamo are goths, emos, and MySpace users. True story.

Get the screamomug. It as nothing to do with emo. It's true that the name screamo looks like scream and emo, but it's not emo with scream.
Screamo is a lot more musicaly violent than emocore.
Listen to Saetia or Circle take the square (both best screamo band), and tell me if it sound like Alexisonfire or the used. Those are emo core.. far smoother than screamo.
