The REAL Emo/Screamo Thread

I can see what you mean, theres a difference. It's almost like old and new I suppose in a way. But you still get new bands playing really good punk etc.
At first those stereotypes were all I knew of these genres, which kind of makes me sad but going a listening to all that old material is cool for me. And I can tell the difference.

That sounds funny as. What makes you say it's indie gone bad?

here's some emo:
hardcore: rites of spring, moss icon
indie: sunny day real estate, american football

and i think the indie gone bad is because it's a more punk sounding indie.

I only added screamo bands to the list. Not many emo bands. but yes sunny day real estate, american football, texas is the reason, the promise ring, (early) get up kids are all emo.

The guy from the smiths didn't create the term emo. It came from some spanish dude I believe.

This was acsually typed up by my good friend and he deff knows what he is talking about. He grew up in these ages.
