Guest deleted_19765 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Admitting my love for Blink was the first step, particularly their self-titled album. Then I got way into Taking Back Sunday. Where You Want to Be has been one of my favorite records this summer (seriously, what a phenomenal record!). I've been a fan of Coheed And Cambria forever and I've now realized they aren't that far off from some of this stuff, so it makes sense. Anyone else love this music from about ten years ago? Also bands like The Used, Bayside, Sparta, My Chemical Romance, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzygirl Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I enjoyed My Chemical Romance. I think they are a pretty decent band and I was a big fan for some time. The Black Parade is an amazingly good album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake-Pit Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Emos were cool.Fall Out Boy were big, and Hawthorne Heights too... I swear Green Day were Emo but apparently not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Never listened to em, never gave em a chance, never liked the look and...i dunno, i kinda heard about the stereotype before i even got the chance to hear any tunes and it just put me off, silly way to go about your musical preferences but what can i say. People have suggested that it has something to do with punk, bands like my beloved Joy Division etc...i dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetness Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I've always been more into the "harder" offshoots of the emo genre but Fear Before and Thursday were great, great bands. Really glad I was able to see both of them live several times before they disbanded, some of the best shows I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Been on an MCR binge the past couple of days. Listening to "To The End" now, was what got me into them when I was 15 or 16. Only emo band I liked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnyDRE Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) Sunny Day Real Estate!!!Sunny Day Real Estate!!!Fall Out Boy and MCR are shit bands and or an embarrassment to those who actually love the genre.I'm kinda busy at the moment, but I will definitely add more to this thread later.

luciusfunk Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Are we talking emo or post-hardcore that gets labelled as emo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Parade is an amazingly good album. a thousand times thisFOB were pretty good too, but their new album is the drizzling shits Edited August 24, 2013 by bacardimayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciusfunk Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 MCR's debut and The Black Parade were good albums. I didn't care for their sophomore or last release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inthisriver Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 If you like Sparta then surely you got some love for At The Drive-In? (skip the first minute )I have a hard time knowing exactly what falls under the umbrella of Emo.I guess Brand New is "emo" idkAnother fantastic record.

I enjoy Sparta and at the Drive In, being raised in El Paso, TX and all. I regularly frequent one of Jim Ward's bars.I have always despised Fall Out Boy. I gave their music a chance but I could never enjoy it. I've always been a fan of this song by From Autumn to Ashes though. I'm pretty sure it is considered "emo".I remember there was a time when people who were categorized as "Emo"s were being stoned in Mexico City. People would follow them to concert venues just for the purpose of stoning them. It was insane.
