stop calling gray matter emo. theyre not fucking emo. its just some pissed off confused youth music. leave it at that. they fucking rock.

Gray Matter was so ahead of their time it makes me fucking sick. Food for thought/take it back and Thog are two of my favorite albums of all time. Don't know why people make such a big deal over Rites Of Spring when this band really captured the music and times.

Favorite punk band. I would kill someone to see these guys at this time in the video.

@unlvrebelx Regardless of what even they said about it, it's not emo. Listen to it.

@unlvrebelx That's interesting to know.

@scubaduba23 well, because I was around then and ordered every Dischord album from #4 on, when they came out; let me be the first to educate you. They did consider themselves emo. That name was popularized around 84-86 in the DC area by bands like Gray Matter. I remember it vividly and could probably easily show you evidence with any Maximum R&R from around that time....also have an old emo album from 1985 that the band even put "Genre: Emo-Core" on the album. It was emo, and is true emo!

@AlbertMondback Sorry, not true. I have an album from an early DC Emo band, Foundation (1985), that clearly has "Genre: Emo-Core" on the album sleeve. Many of these bands considered themselves Emo.

The name of the song is "Chutes & Ladders", as I said in the description it was the first song on the "Take It Back" EP.
