    Seriously, Emo? If any Emo kids came to the Bright Eyes show I went to, I'm pretty sure the hipsters would sneer them TO DEATH.

    I have to disagree with that strongly. Melancholy and sad? Yeah...and? That doesn't mean emo. Bright Eyes is definitely a folk rock/indie rock amd occasionally electronica band.
    I could see where people could get the emo tag from. But those people aren't talking about the new age emo crap. They are more referring to the early nineties stage of emo music. Did you know that Weezer's 'Pinkerton' album was widely considered 'emo' by the underground music scene when it came out?

    Emo, can be lyrics, but nowadays in todays world, its more or less a haircut...

    But I actually can see where the emo tag comes from...
    Sig please.

    I don't see how Weezer is emo at all. If they really were, chances are I would like them. I don't really care for them at all though.

    OOC:By the way, think of me as a new and old-version-of-emo-music fan with a depressing personality and a new-age emo style.


    @El Bandito:
    I'm sure it depends on what type of area you're in. I can't think of anyone I know around my area who likes Bright Eyes that isn't an 'emo' kid.

    But out of the style subject and back to the music topic, please.

    I never did.
    (SPOILER)And thats no joke while you're all thinking it is.
    I got you again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    P.S PoeticallyPathethic, one question (not to be offending
    or anything) but err are you like male or female? You don't seem
    to active in the actual Final Fantasy place, girls seem to play
    less games. And the purple siggy thing looks a bit feminine,
    but I don't know. (I'm dead serious about this one)>

    @PP hereunder: Personally I wouldn't expect a male to
    use purple. Not a bad color though, kind of eyecatching.
    (SPOILER)You should color him red for Aprils fools day :P.

    XD It's cool.

    I'm male, and I used to be active in the FF forums, but the threads are boring there. I just prefer the general topics these days.

    As for the sig, I like magenta/pink. Got a problem with it? :rolleyes2

    I really love the folk album. Land Locked Blues and Poison Oak are gorgeous. The more mainstream album is eh.

    I like Bright Eyes, and Desaparecidos, the other band Conor Oberst is in. I have a few favorite songs, but I don't feel like listing them.

    It's mostly "Pinkerton". If that album were a person, they would literally explode from sexual frustration.

    Some people say they disbanded, but Conor has said he may try to do another Desaparecidos record. However as my friend commented "he keeps saying that for years now", so may not be a very accurate statement XD
