    I voted yes. I really like their music, but their lyrics are atrocious enough that I'm actually embarassed to listen to them around other people -- or even admit that I own either of the albums, for that matter.

    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.

    If it's supposed to be a compendium for what emo is, they should at least actually know what it's short for.
    Umm that is what is stands for. Either that or emotionally-charged punk rock.
    In the origins of the genre, emo was short for "emotive."

    Yes, and do you know what emotive is also called? Emotional Expressions. So it pretty much means the exact same thing.

    I have no idea if they are emo or not but they do suck.

    I don't think they're emo, but I prefer to listen to their music rather than their lyrics.

    Simply the Best!

    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
    Compared to My Chemical Romance and Nickelback, Linkin Park is not emo...

    I can't wait for LP's new album! ^-^
    I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret between a shadow and a soul...

    While terrible and annoyingly angsty, I agree that Nickelback isn't emo. =/
