Apparently I am 10% Emo....oh my...I will send this thread to AC now.

Prepare for long posts about dictionaries or some such bullshit.

Some Emo music is alright.... I'm not just going to sidestep a track I like because of it's genre.

AC will tell you you're ignorant for thinking it is a genre.

It is a genre... srug

AC can say what he pleases.

If most of the world say that a genre's a genre... then it is.

Well it's not like it's scientific or anything genre's aren't defined by facts... more so by public opinion. Someone just gives it a name.

Not at all, he acknowledges that it is a genre...since it is, he just explains that as it is used to day is not what the genre stands for.

Hmm I see... Becuase everyone thinks that a band is Emo just because people who are considered "Emo" like them?

I'm pretty sure the last time we butted heads I quoted him professing about how the genre no longe exists.

I've only briefly clashed with him over Emo when I quoted Wiki... but I said I just enjoyed quoting Wikipedia... and he never replied...

How it is ended, there are no more people that make that genre of music...it doesn't magically dissappear just because no one makes such music anymore. It's kinda like calling Britney Spears Baroque ...she well, just isn't..although the genre (time period) is gone (closed, dead).

Yeah, well, the term is wrongly used, Emo applies to something different...I personally have no problem with it being used, but well, it's just wrong. Kinda like calling Green Day punk..

Nothing has changed except the genre doesn't exist anymore.

Yeah, that makes sense I guess... I just get my genre classing's from Wikipedia as I really have no idea anymore.... Then the bands I like that have "Emo" as one of their genre's; I simply edit so it no longer has it there.
