Ian MacKaye - 1986 - Emocore is stupid

this is exactly what i have thought of the term emo ever since i heard it. He summed it up. He didn't say the music classified is stupidest fucking thing he's heard because the music that was classified as that then was his band embrace, and other dc bands, he was saying the term emocore was stupid because music is emotional.

The true meaning in "emo"? I'm pretty sure he was the one who was given credit for the real term, I hate that scene's, depressed(no offense to them) and haters gave that term a new gay meaning, Ian's meaning is better than that shitty new one we have!

nctrIs2... me too... but as for the "I love being sad". That's poser bullshit. as punkisALIVEagain said. emos are preps in black, with their own definitive style of music. People like you, who think they are emo, said, "ooohh, depressing lyrics, let's be bipolar".
emos are NOT depressive. If you thionk you have to be, you have issues.

hey man fuck you lets see if ur saying that shit when u get it fuk u

most all hardcore is emo, people think its just an 'angry-type musik' isnt anger an emotion? simply 'red, im seeing red, im seeing red, im seeing red, im seeing reeeeeed' (M.T.) seing red = anger, anger= emotion, emotion in hardcore=emocore but since most harcore is 'emo-attached' its JUST hardcore
