I would tell you to listen to Death Cab For Cutie ..... but they don't usually go under the "emo" category - they're more indie rock in my opinion ... Many of their songs are good for that kind of depressed state of mind though.

;o Indie isnt the same as emo. Emo uses more guitar+drums. Emo lyrics are stronger than Indie.

Early Novembers not really emo.. But who cares. Listen to rock first and anything you pick out that seems sad enough its emo.
 I mean.. you're not listening to something JUST cause its emo ;] Rofl. Yeahh.. Blink-182 I Miss You is emo. I just like Emo style :) the musics.. okay..

To the girl that commented on my response...
Yeah, why the hell do you think I said ... "Does it matter... it's all good music." Which kind of opens the doors for all types of rock songs that are pretty emotional...[that's what emo stands for] maybe because I like to be OPEN MINDED about music... Did I come out and say... "oh here are some emo bands".... No... Have you ever heard Sunday Drive? That's a pretty depressing song and by the way.. from my point of view, i don't think you really know what you're talking about... Keep in mind, bands that are not categorized as 'emo' then... DO make emo songs... f*ck it, i quit... |

Uhm....
Brand New- The No Seatbelt Song It's angsty more than emo I believe. But I guess it could fall under the same catergory. *shrugs* Brand New- The Boy who blocked his own shot That's more emo i think. I love that song!

The best emo band on the planet is Further Seems Forever. They were also one of the first main emo bands of our generation. They're the reason you got bands liek Dashboard Confessional and Thursday....who suck anyway.
FSF - A New Desert Life FSF - Pride War FSF - Just Until Sundown FSF - Wearing Thin FSF - Madison Prep Those are the best i can think of. |

Chris Carrabba (the singer and founder of Dashboard Confessional) was also one of the original member and singer of FSF. We have Dashboard Confessional not because of FSF... but because Chris believed that what he was writing and feeling at the time was too emotional to be used for FSF (even though he was writing the material for FSF as well) so he started performing by himself under the name of Dashboard Confessional (he couldn't perform as Chris Carrabba because then that would have confused him with FSF when he wanted to be apart from them). And then eventually there were disputes between the members and Chris left the band and continued to perform as Dashboard Confessional... and then he started to create a full band. So if you're saying Dashboard sucks, then you're pretty much saying FSF sucks as well. Well, the original FSF anyways. |
