The bands MTV has taken upon itself to call emo.
These include: Taking Back Sunday,All American Rejects,Fall Out Boy,Panic! At The Disco,Dashboard Confessional,30 Seconds To Mars,My Chemical Romance and Afi.
NONE of these bands are emo but MTV is a lazy bullshit corporation that can't be bothered to be original and so chucks the word "emo" at every current guitar band,thus adding to the current emo frenzy.
Now preps are running around high schools telling everyone how emo they are and how much they love Panic! At The Disco.
And it's all thanks to MTV.
Thanks,MTV. You just seem to ruin everything don't ya?

Girl2:"NOOOOOO!!!!!!!! DON'T MENTION THAT BAND AND "EMO" IN THE SAME SENTENCE!!!!"

Bands with "day"s in their name are an easy indicator: Taking Back Sunday, Saves the Day, Thursday. If it was the 80s these bands would have been heavy metal bands. If it was the 70s, they would be disco groups. They would have been Pearl Jam in the 1990s. They all sound the same. Snottyish vocals, poppy rythms, lyrics that admit to being loser-ish. They bear no resemblance to authentic emo groups like Rites of Spring, Moss Icon and Heroin.
What MTVmo group will they manufacture next?

This is a word that I think I may have just made up. (I am more then likely wrong though) It is pronounced M-T-Vemo and is used to describe these crap bands that we see on MTV who claim to be "emo" but are pretty far from it. You can read something about what real emois at that link. I'm not being bias because im not really into either M-T-Vemo or real emo to much.
Person 1: "Yeah, MCR and Fall out Boy rocks!!!"
Person 2: "Dude you don't think that MTVemo band is actually cool do you? They wouldn't know what real emo was if it shit on their forhead."

mtvmurphy 

This is one of the sexiest mother fuckers alive. Some days he wears the best drip, but other days he just doesn’t give a shit and dressed like a bum. Don’t get me wrong, On that day he’d still take your girl!! Known for his dangerous lifestyle and best known for dashing on the police in a hellcat and making news 12 NJ. The girls love him and they flock from all over. He is said to pack a power punch into the wet river women flow.
Kylie: Did you see mtvmurphy? He’s a certified beauty!

Lisa: don’t call him mtvmurphy, they call him Mtv

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
