Okay lets get this whole problem straight first of all do some research before you write things down. Emo is actually spilt off of the
hardcore of the 1980's it orginally stood for emotional hardcore. The
scene start in washington d.c. because they believed hardcore kids were becoming to violent and just showing up at shows to hurt people the did not believe in the punk
rock ideals made clear but hardcore bands such as minor threat. Emo became more popular during the 90's as an indie style pioneered by bands such as sunny day real estate and texas is the reason. Now the interesting thing about emo is it isn't actually around anymore you see it was really just an offshoot of punk similar to the hardcore of the 80's and the more pop side of punk in the 90's. Now we can get to scene kids they listen to bands that are around today such as silverstein and boys like girls. Which is pop
music with a little bit of
rock thrown in.
Never call someone emo because it does not actually exist anymore there are no emo bands anymore only scene bands. As stated pervoiusly emo is just an offshoot of punk that stayed around for a little bit and doesn't exist anymore. It is also very important to know the difference between
scene and punk. Punk is politically and socially motivated whereas
scene is rebellion as sold at
hot topic. Hopefully everyone understands the difference.
