emo is the new in thing in the rock scene.the term emo means emotional.when i first heard about this word,it sounded funny.but when i actually heard some bands of this genre,i knew i was struck with something huge.this kind of music makes me feel invincible.this music makes me energetic ,makes me jump like crazy.i got introduced to emo with a band known as Story Of The Year.i heard until the day i die and i became a SOTY fan.i first thought that SOTY was alternative.but later,i checked on some sites and it mentioned emo screamo.the term sounded funny.anyways,later i started listening to funeral for a friend,saosin,underoath,emery,etc.funeral for a friend is simply kickass.a really good band with kickass songs. Saosin just blew my mind.insane vocals,innovative guitar work and drumming is awesome!!!!!
then i started listening to Emery but emery disappointed me.it was nothing special.but Underoath,they take the genre to the whole new level!!!!!!!!!awesome vocalist and drummer.the screams are just too good.
now a lot of fun has been made about emo fashion,emo culture,etc.as far as fashion is concerned,i really like those typical emo hairstyles.they look really cool and the converse,it makes an ordinary person look really good.but the eyeliners,i wish that was avoided.
as for emo lifestyle, i don't really care for their lifestyle.i just care about the music and if the music is something i really like,then i don't need to care about the lifestyle.music is the sole criteria of judging a genre.
so friends,hating a genre just because of its fashion and its culture doesn't make sense.if you hate the music,then u have all the right to hate the genre.but to judge a genre on the other aspects would be really stupid of you.as for me,nothing like emo
check out bands like Saosin,Underoath,Alexisonfire,Story Of The Year.
