indiemo
A mix of Indie Rock, Post Hardcore, and Emo from the 90's. Died in the early 2000s when bands started mixing it with Pop Punk and Metalcore. It was softer than first-wave emo and had less yelling and the songs were usually 3+ minutes long. It was the most mainstream of emo, with Sunny Day Real Estate the only emo band ever on MTV and some indiemo bands had music videos.
Some good indiemo bands are Sunny Day Real Estate, Texas Is The Reason, The Get Up Kids, and Knapsack.
Jimmy Eat World was indiemo, but they changed to power pop/lame pop rock in the late 90's.
Emo has nothing to do with emo kids, and was around 20 years before term emo kids was invented. Emo kids like metalcore and pop punk, not emo.

Indiecore
Indiecore is not only a style, but is also a music genre. Indiecore is a blend of Hardcore and Indie music. The term Hardcore has been changed immensely since its original meaning. Hardcore was originally a genre created by bands such as Bad Brains and Minor Threat and it was influenced by fast abrasive punk rock. Indie technically has no definition besides the fact that it is the abbreviation for independent. Indie was just a genre created to describe music that you can't and don't want to put a specific label on. The style of Indiecore is very similar to the style of Scene, in ways in which they wear tight pants and band merch. Indiecore is also different from Scene, because they usually don't have choppy hair and they are proud of their natural hair color and don't dye their hair. Indiecore kids are very supportive of local music, and its practically all they listen too.
Indiefox
An indie band that wrote a song called "Donnie and Gretchen", which should have been on the Donnie Darko soundtrack, because it's ridiculously romantic. Unfortunately, they're not on a major label, so almost no one who listens to pop radio has heard of them.
