        what does count as emo these days? seems to be coming a catch all term (a bit like 'indie') for anyone in a trucker cap who isn't Pharell from the Neptunes.

        Spy Versus Spy were the bollocks. I'll second that about The Anniversary's début, too. Other than that, you can't go wrong with a bit of Braid - well, a lot of Braid, really.

        The Rasmus? WHAT. A. BUNCH. OF. WANK.

        Emo's become such a subjective term that this thread's a bit pointless. In fact it's almost a contradiction in terms as emo is used almost solely in a derogatory sense now.
        
        Having said that, I'd say the best emo (if you can call it that) would be stuff like Appleseed Cast, Sunny Day, Rites Of Spring, Quicksand, Rival Schools etc. I've still got a soft spot for Thursday too, though...

        Please, please learn to spell before dictating to GROWN UPS about what music to listen to. There is no excuse for making shit music. NONE. At all.
        
        This is what happens when hormonal teenagers get given money to buy their own CDs. I had an older brother to vet my music taste, and how glad I am for it.

        I agree. We should all have a mentor to guide our CD buying power. We should also take dramatic steps against 50c and the Rasmus.
        
        Just like at Reading, if anyone fancies digging that arguement out again.

        I think bottling them off stage was sad as it comes...there are plenty of other things to see if you don't like what is on the main stage. They were asked to play, unlike Dafne and Celeste who invited theselves along and thoroughly deserves a good bottle of piss right between the eyes...hurrah!

        I'm so glad I have a younger sister who I've told that if she ever liked the rasmus, I'd kick her teeth in.
        When I was her age, I didn't have good music taste like she does. Thanks to me, she likes the Ramones and the Clash. And she's 13.
        Yay for older brothers/sisters!

        if they had any balls they would have stuck it out. 50 cent got through 5 songs and was doing fine until someone threw a chair at him. he might be shit but he aint scared of water. fuckin rasmus. bloodless little shitbag pussies.

        Can't you see how it was an act of altruism? Had he not bottled them along with everyone else, then they would have subjected impressionable hormonal teenagers to their crap shite for even longer. He could have seen something he wanted to, but didn't, out of concern for the kids.

        i mean, i dont like 50 cent. but he put up with it good. he was enjoying the villain status. not even getting through one song and running off with yr tail between yr legs is just pathetic. no commitment. no nothing. empty.

        i do get what you're saying i just think it's wank. why should a band play when people who are throwing things at them? that's rubbish. you should have gone to see something else if you didn't like them. nothing gives you the right to ruin other people's enjoyment.
        I'm right you are WRONG!

        have you actually been in a band?? people could have been throwing BRICKS at my band, we love what we are doing so much, we have so much faith in it, there is NO FUCKING WAY we would turn and run from an aggressive crowd. anyone who does doesnt deserve to be there. you have to fuckin BRING IT. the rasmus didnt bring ANYTHING. if they had played on i would have gained some respect for them despite their awful kiddie goth-pop shit and excreble fashion sense. as it stands, they let down their fans by walking off. 50 cent proved himself, to me at least. and i suspect to some others too. the rasmus didnt prove anything except that they have no bottle except a plastic bottle in the back of the head as they were bullied offstage.

        bricks are worse than bottles. bricks can hurt people. that's not cool. but bottles of water?? thats fine. they bounce off, and you don't die. I don't see a problem. people throw water over bands in approval too - you dont see courtney love walking off when the fans spray her with beer, or karen o. or anyone with a bit of fuckin class.

        And for a band with what I can only assume are ENORMOUS salaries, I wouldn't complain about a dodgy festival or two.
        
        If they didn't take themselves so seriously, none of this would have happened. No one bottles Blink 182, 'cos although they are just as wank, they are FUN, which STOPS people getting all psycho with bottles of piss on their asses.

        SDRE aren't textbook emo. They're midwest emo (i.e. bedwetcore). Emo always used to be a type of hardcore - see Rites of Spring, Embrace (no not that Embrace), Moss Icon.

        Emo started from Dischord Records, including FUGAZI, rites of spring, embrace.

        Round here emo is a bit of a dirty word. I know it means well but you have to admit that some of it is a bit whiny. I suppose some people would class Fugazi and the Blood Brothers as emo so they are the best. Their not emo in my eyes though.
        Rites of Spring are good as well

        At the Drive-In were fairly emo. Musically, Biffy Clyro are pretty emo. Emo doesn't mean "any American indie rock that isn't metal". It is a genre of music, generally comprising dual guitar and vocals, making heavy use of loud-soft/stop-start dynamics, and melodic arpeggiated guitar parts. Why has it become a dirty word to describe things that have nothing to do with this style of music, i.e. Weezer or later Jimmy Eat World?

        Post-Hardcore and Emo are extremely close to each other.
        
        Thursday,Thrice, ATD-I i would say are Post hardcore also as you said Glassjaw. Emo is JEW and the Get up kids. Ten you have bands which include elements of both Taking Back Sunday and FFAF.

        Yeah there are two types of Hardcore. Hardcore Punk which is Minor Threat, SOIA and Blcak Flag etc. Around the mid to late 80s ther was the Rise of New York Hardcore more Metallic and Heavier than previous bands, with new babds such as Gorilla Biscuits and Agnostic Front.
        
        Asa Harcore exists now it is closer to Metal than Punk. many of the bands use Metal Riffs but often with more screaming than Metal. There is also still a connetion to punk with the lighter side of Hardcore. The main bands include Converge, Hatebreed and Poison the Well.

        Thursday are fully emo. One of the most archetypal emo bands there is at the moment. Why can nobody hear this, and why this is nothing like Jimmy Eat Fucking World? The Get Up Kids could possibly be described as "post-emo" or something (like "shit"). Taking Cack Sunday (i didn't mean to write that but I'll leave it), and Further Seems Forever are also emo. I think Poison the Well even describe themselves as "emo-metalcore" nowadays. Far were emo. At the Drive in could comfortably fit within the description, or even Glassjaw. Thrice, to my ears are more melodic hardcore with a bit of emo influence. Hot Water Music and Elliott are emo. As are Kids Near Water, Rydell or ...and None of Them Knew They Were Robots. Dashboard Confessional are not emo. Anybody getting the picture? Want to play the emo/not emo game? Hmmm? Anyone?

        I think there's an extent to which the name "emo" been applied retrospectively to certain types of post-hardcore music. In an ideal world we wouldn't need to define the genre, but sometimes people need to stand up to petulant "waa, waa, i hate emo" (oh the irony) zealots like John Brainlove who appear to want to use the term out of context to dismiss music they consider to be beneath them, and to belittle those that gain enjoyment from it. And well done, John, it has made you sound knowledgeable, sophisticated and better at liking music than the rest of us. You have earned my respect.

Re: best emo band?

I haven't read the rest of this thread, but here's my two cents worth;

If you want to kill a great band, just label them as emo, provided they have miserable lyrics and guitars.

So I want everyone to promise to only name very definitely emo bands as their "best ever", and in a spirit of complete irony, thereby avoiding innocent casualties.

With that said: Funeral for a friend are definitely the best emo band ever, leaving them with a simultaneous status of one of the worst bands ever.

URGH!!! will this thread ever go away??

Emo has to be the most stupid name for any genre, if music isn't emotional, then what is it?

Playing loads of minor chords and wailing doesn't make music emotional. Its just makes it shallow and pointless.

        There seems to be general confusion as to what emo is, and the difference between blatant pop music- The Rasmus? - and whatever emo means this week.
        
        Too many genres. Should just be whitebread music, and then good music.
