-The Emo List-

[†Tysonâ€Â]

C.o.b.: is melo death\power metal Therefore you're a idiot

rise against: is somewhat punk rock don't confuse meaningful songs with emo music.

apocalyptica: is a mix of a lot of different types of metal just because they have had guests like the singer from 3 days grace and him don't mean there emo, they have also had people from slayer, soulfly, lacuna coil, and many others I have been a fan of theres for a while and can tell you they are most definitely not emo.



I am trying to help you from looking like a moron. The reason I think I am never wrong is because when it comes down to music I'm almost always right. I devote more time to music in a week then most will in a month. Going by a vote doesn't tell you what genre it's in especially on sythe. look at the above I just clarified from Izena. If everyone is as ignorant as that how are you going to know what is what?

I would much rather not label music at all other than if it's rock metal, rap, country etc. But if you must label a band I would suggest you get it right or keep it to yourself.

An I don't "haunt" the tunes and analysis forum. I simply correct others mistakes and or voice my opinion which guess what Einstein that's what a forum is for voicing ones opinion. if you can't handle criticism I don't think this is the correct place for you.

I'm not going to argue with you because i know its not going to get anywhere (anyway we've all seen that picture posted around "arguing on the internet is like participating in the special olympics, even if you win you are still retarded"). You are entitled to post your own opinion and i am also allowed to post this thread.

Oh also, you do know a lot more about music than me and a lot of others on this site. Even though you know a lot about music, you don't seem to be giving me many bands to add to the list, i'd like to know what bads you personally class as 'emo'.

No offense, Fail.
The rest was good, but you made a tiny mistake and put MCR 2 times. ^_^

Thanks for pointing that out, i thought i might of put it on twice but i was in a hurry so i didn't re-check the list then completely forgot about it lol.

Also to the person who said Linkin Park is emo, they aren't.

 

[†Tysonâ€Â]

I'm just gonna mention these bands i'm not sure whether to class them as emo or not so i won't add them to the list until someone agrees unless others disagree. Here they are:

Cute Is What We Aim For
Angels and Airwaves
Alexisonfire
Paramore
Yellowcard

 

[deadzone]

Honestly, stop before I hunt you down. Simple plan IS PUNK/ALTERNATIVE which classifys it as EMO. ALOT of bands that are classified as alternative ARE EMO. If simple plan was pop punk I wouldn't be listening to them.



Tyson has it there deadzone.

Because something is alternative punk rock does not make them emo fool, there are more standards to categorizing genre's. and simple plan are POP PUNK not alt punk go read a book.

I don't listen to emo music and most of the bands on the list I havent ever bothered to listen to. I just give you the correct genre's for the bands that I do know and most the emo bands I do know of are already on there but here are a couple others.

~The newer stuff from deftones
~newer stuff from Marilyn Manson
~the almost
~ northern winter (yes I would label my own band as emo even which is kinda sad that I am playing for a genre I dislike lol)

Not quite sure if they are labeled it now as there genre has changed a little since they first came out but possibly afi aswell?

 

[xx mdv xx]

I think Blessthefall is hardcore, not emo. Alesana seems pretty emo to me.

They're definetely screamo, I'm not sure about emo though.

 

[I Skillz I]

i dont consider all american rejects to be emo... cool list tho

Because something is alternative punk rock does not make them emo fool, there are more standards to categorizing genre's. and simple plan are POP PUNK not alt punk go read a book.

Over 90% of alternatice punk rock bands ARE Emo.
Also, What kind of book will teach me about pop punk/alt punk.
Also, Good Charlotte are what you classify as 'pop punk'. Simple plan are no where near the same as Good Charlotte.

Marilyn Manson isn't really emo, but I'm sure it belongs on the list.
Deftones are kind of the same.. its more of a toss with them.
The almost..hmm, not really the band that belongs there honestly.
as I have not heard of any of your bands songs I cannot judge it.

over 90% of alternative punk rock is not emo music, perhaps you are a bit confused on what alternative is?

Good charlotte and simple plan are basically in the same boat. just different styles of the same genre. and If either were to be emo I would say good charlotte is closer to it than simple plan is. I suggest you go back look over there lyrics, an there sound, and then come back with an answer.

By me saying "go read a book" I was hoping you would be intelligent enough to realize I was calling you ignorant on the subject and to go read up on it and get more fluent to the subject, but apparently you are clueless.


Notice I stated there newer stuff, If you have listened to there latest albums they have both crossed over to the emo category.

 

[Carlton]

I suggest you go back look over there lyrics, .

alright, let's do that.
1 old and 1 new song of each band, let's compare.

Simple plan- Untitled ( oldish song) this song has a depressing feel to the lyrics.

I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lyin' here tonight
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain

Chorus:
How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
as I'm fadin' away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?

Everybody's screamin'
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slippin' off the edge
I'm hangin' by a thread
I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't

How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
As I'm fadin' away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?

I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
as I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?

Simple plan Your love is a lie. - It does have a depressing/ heart broken feel to the lyrics.

I fall asleep by the telephone
It’s 2 O’clock and I’m waiting up alone
Tell me where have you been?
I found a note with another name
You blow a kiss, but it just don’t feel the same
Cause I can feel that you’re gone

I can’t bite my tongue forever
While you try to play it cool
You can hide behind your stories
But don’t take me for a fool

You can tell me that there’s nobody else
(But I feel it)
You can tell me that you’re home by yourself
(But I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
But I know
Your love is just a lie
(Lie)
It’s nothing but a lie
(Lie)

You look so innocent
But the guilt in your voice gives you away
Yeah you know what I mean
How does it feel when you kiss when you know that i trust you
And do you think about me when he fucks you?
Could you be more obscene?

So don’t try to say you’re sorry
Or try to make it right
Don’t waste your breath because it’s too late, it’s too late.

You can tell me that there’s nobody else
(But I feel it)
You can tell me that you’re home by yourself
(But I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
But I know, I know,
Your love is just a lie
(Lie)
It’s nothing but a lie
(Lie)
You’re nothing but a lie

You can tell me that there’s nobody else
(But I feel it)
You can tell me that you’re home by yourself
(But I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
But I know, I know
Your love is just a lie
(Lie
I know you’re nothing but a lie
(Lie)
Lie
(Lie)
Lie
(Lie)
Lie

Good charlotte - Life styles of the rich and famous. (old) what's so emo about this?

only see it on tv
read it in the magazines
celebrities that want sympathy

all they do is piss and moan
inside the rolling stone
talking about how hard life can be

Id like to see them spend the week
livin life out on the street
I dont think they would survive

but they could spend a day or two
walking in someone elses shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
they would fall
Fall

Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous
theyre always complainin
always complainin
if money is such a problem
well they got mansions
think we should rob them

well did you know when your famous you could kill your wife
and theres no such thing as 25 to life
as long as you got the cash to pay for cochran

and did you know if you were cought and you were smokin crack
and McDonald's wouldnt even wanna take you back
you could always just run for mayor of D.C.

Id like to see them spend the week

Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous
theyre always complainin

if money is such a problem
you got so many problems
think I could solve them

Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous
we'll take your clothes, cash cards, and homes
just stop complaining
Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous
Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous
Lifestlyes of the rich and the famous

Good charlotte I just wanna live. wow, they're scared to die?

I need an alarm system in my house
So I know when people are creeping about
These people are freaking me out (these days)
It's getting hectic everywhere that I go
They wont leave me alone
There's things they all wanna know

I'm paranoid of all the people I meet
Why are they talking to me?
And why can't anyone see?

I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live ("just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live x2")

I rock a law suit when I'm going to court
A white suit when I'm getting divorced
A black suit at the funeral home
And my birthday suit when I'm home alone
Talking on the phone got an interview
With the Rolling Stone they're saying
"Now you're rich and now you're famous fake ass girls all know your name
And Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous your first hit aren’t you ashamed"
Of the life, of the life, of the life we’re living

I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live

Stop your messing around boy
Better think of your future
Better make some good plans boy
Said every one of my teachers
Look out better play it safe you'll never know what hard times will come your way
We say where we're coming from
We've already seen the worst that life can bring

Now we get expect it everywhere that we go
All the things that they say
Yeah we already know

I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live("just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live")
I just wanna live("just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live")
I just wanna live("just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live")
I just wanna live("just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live")
I just wanna live

How the hell is Skillet emo? Also how is Weezer emo? Add some body like Tokio Hotel, god I can't stand them.

 

[†Tysonâ€Â]

Skillet is christain rock, no where near emo in my opinion lol. I don't know how Weezer is emo since i've only heard one of their songs but a lot of people think they are emo.

You picked horrible songs I could have just as easily put for simple plan

Shut up, and addicted (I believe the name of the song is)

and for good charlotte I could put the day that I die(I believe the name is) and hold on.

So, can you prove to me otherwise, and the 2nd simple plan song is simply a sappy breakup song not emo.
