There are two types of emos. One considers itself genuine and the other a poser. They are virtually indistinguishable and both are equally tiresome to anyone who has managed to mature past using "rawr" and making claw hands.
So and so dresses like me and likes the same music, but they're not a real emo. They just saw it on tv and thought it was cool.

Emo comes from the word emotional.
You can see how it fits in. An emo is a person with emotional problems. They may choose to wear black but that’s most stereotyped emos.
Emo- genre of music. Music that can be metal or has deeper and darker meaning to what it would be. Emo bands: My Chemical Romance, Panic! At The Disco, Fall Out Boy, Twenty Øne Piløts, LINKIN PARK ect

Real Emo only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta. Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE
