Alot of their lyrics have emotional themes, but I wouldn't class them as 'emo'. Especially when they come under the 'nu-metal' genre. So basically it's just their lyrics that are 'emo', not their music.

In the origins of the genre, emo was short for "emotive."Quote:

Yes, and do you know what emotive is also called? Emotional Expressions. So it pretty much means the exact same thing.
Or electronica with bad lyrics.Quote:

I don't think they're emo, but I prefer to listen to their music rather than their lyrics.
I love Linkin Park...I don't think they're completely emo...Because some of they're lyrics are just angry and only like 3 of them are 'emo'. Anywayz...Everytime I listen to them I don't get sad or anything, in fact...I get angry, lol I like listening to them. It makes me mad :p
Compared to My Chemical Romance and Nickelback, Linkin Park is not emo...
I can't wait for LP's new album! ^-^
Nickelback isn't..um...they aren't emo.Quote:

No, Linkin Park isn't emo...........at least not in the razorblade romance kind of way.
While terrible and annoyingly angsty, I agree that Nickelback isn't emo. =/Quote:
