Like I was saying to Stoner, I feel as though I dont belong cause I dont follow a certain style like emo, goth, trendy, chav, etc. Im just me and that kinda does bug me. Im not a massive fan of Greendays latest stuff, prefer their old albums.
Someone said Snow Patrol are emo, I thought they were indie.
Snow Patrol arn't emo, you are correct they are indie. Thats like saying The Mars Volta is emo!:lol:
i thought snow patrol was indie too im not the only one lol:)
Ive heard of Mars Volta, but not heard anything by them.

Oh man. "Go emo." Jesus Christ. What happened to the individual?
havent listened to Papa Roach or Linkin Park since I was in high school. I got outbidded on a "Death Cab for Cutie" album. Thats annoyed me!
I am Stoner, you make me sound more emo with every post you make!
I think this is kinda silly (no offence) but now culture is making you feel like you have to fit into one of those categories? Rather than being you, and therefore probably being more unique than any of those labels.Quote:

Really just reading this entire thread through almost makes me laugh, it's so silly and just generalizes people SO much. Perhaps I'm being naive or not respecting the whole emo thing, but the thought that an "emo" would strictly never listen to Dookie is funny, and you're making it sound like a religion...
Just be yourself, listen to the music you like, wear the clothes you like, and don't think you have to become part of some social label. I mean sure if you like "emo" style, wear some, but god, don't limit the music you listen to based on the label you give yourself.
(Sorry but this is the way I see the whole thing :p )

EMOs are basically self obsessive with thier emotions to the point of self deterioration. They are an emotional addict. Natruraly, emo music will then depend on the individual. As for emo-pop trends, I remeber good charlette, and... ugh.. yeah - that is all I remember being very emo :D There are a ton, but I am drawing a mega blank atm. So yeah - if someone likes crying and listening to mozart, I would call mozart thier emo outlet, as strange as it might be.
Emo in the silly sense defined as an overly emotional person, usually wearing stuff from Hot Topic who thinks their life is a living tragedy. Poetry and photo/weblogs are also a necessity. :)
I Am Stoner, none of those bands that you listed are emo.
Emo is a personality and very different than Goth/"Freak".
Creeps.
