In this day and age, "emo" is now the definition for numerous things such as the way someone dresses; certain genres of music; the way people act; a mood and also someone who feels the need to self harm.
Emo originally derrived from the sub-genre of punk known as hardcore punk in the late 80s and lived on from there.
"Emo" music as it is commonly called, is typically music filled with long high pitched screams, continous off beats, a guitar riff that is usually on 3 string and at one side of guitar. And all of this for the Teenagers who want to be someone they are not and want attention from their peers as they believe their life is far harder than anyone elses and that no one understands them or how hard their life is.

Emo is someone who is too skinny, poses and listens to other peoples music about how "bad" their lives are.

People who are very emotional or had a bad past. I'm making these because they deserve a place in this world. They tend to like punk, rock, or emo rap. They usually have black hair, but some of them have punky styles. They are very friendly if you get to know them.
"He's an emo!"
