This is a topic that a lot of people disagree on. What classifies a song or a band as "emo" to you? Not necessarily talking about the way a band dresses, or the way they do their hair, etc...just strictly basing it off the sound of the band/song. Is it lyrical content? Is it an almost whiny style of singing and screaming? When I hear the word emo one generalization comes to mind, suicidal people, so to me I would say an emo band or song is based off the lyrical content more so than the sound they produce.
What do you think? |

An emo song is
HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS "Ohio Is For Lovers" And I can't make it on my own. (And I can't make it on my own.) Because my heart is in Ohio. So cut my wrists and black my eyes. (Cut my wrists and black my eyes) So I can fall asleep tonight, or die. Because you kill me. You know you do, you kill me well. You like it too, and I can tell. You never stop until my final breath is gone. I think that emo music has sad lyrics and a little of screamo in it. |
