Something Corporate and Death cab for cutie are emo.
Emo is short for emotional like everyone said. Emo most likely has a deeper meaning then most pop songs. |

emo is a genre that came off the d.c. punk scene in the late 80s with artists with more emotional lyrics than the other, more hardcore, punk bands in the same area. an example would be rites of spring. what kind of music the term defines changed many times until today, where it is usually given to pop punk bands with "my girlfriend dumped me i'm so sad" kind of lyrics (like most of the bands mentioned in this thead) or just bands with emotional lyrics in general (such as bright eyes). i personally think emo is dead and that the term has been so bastardized it really can't apply to any modern music or artists, but that's just my take. mmm. i thought that was a pretty good summary on my part. there's a lot more stuff on google too. topic closed? |

QUOTE Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle. Haha

a music genre, short for emotional.
here is an incorrect version of the word emo: my boyfriend broke up with me so i'm being emo. my report card was bad so i am emo. but i'd rather nobody use the word at all. because emo screamo can usually just be called screamo. it's not so essential to the language. i'm not even going to start into what bands are and what bands aren't. i get pissed off easily when they say bands that i don't consider emo are, so i'm going to keep my mouth shut.
