"EMO" is a genre of music. It stands for 'Emotional punk'; "Emo", for short. It's prettie much all sad and depressing music. However, they claim it to be more than just music. They say it's "a way of life". Lame, if you want MY honest opinion.. but many like it -- and to each his own, ya know! Hope this clarifies!! =D

Emo's are a bunch of pussies who deserved to be kicked in the throat. Once they get up, they deserve to be drop kicked.

Emo is a style of music, meaning 'Emotional.' Sterotypically, 'Emo bands' (such as Fall Out Boy, Taking Back Sunday, and Dashboard Confessional) are made up of guys singing depressing / emotional music.


The 'style' is more like a label now. (Like punk, goth, prep, skater, hardcore etc. etc.) Emo folks are typically associated with self-harm, depression, and suicide. Most people think someone who is 'Emo' wears tight black pants, black shirt, skate shoes or Converses, dyed black hair (if it is not naturally black), black eyeliner and such. Though you don't have to listen to Emo music to dress like that. Nor do you have to dress like that if you listen to Emo music.


Of course, this is all what the world says. Wear what you want, dye your hair what color you want, wear different colored earrings and wear one DUCKY sock and one PONY sock!! Yeah!


... yeah.

rainbowcherrie answered Thursday September 15 2005, 3:34 pm:
Emo was originally a type of music. It's short for emotional and most pure emo bands are made up of soft male voices, acoustic guitars and depressing and emotional lyrics. Most emo bands have mixed their music with rock, examples of emo bands are Taking Back Sunday and Dashboard Confessional.

A style of dress developed from the music and is now a label (as in goth, prep, skater etc...). The sterotypical view of an emo is tight black trousers, black hair, Converse chucks and black framed glasses. Emos are usually associated with self-harm and suicide, this is reflected in the lyrics of many emo songs.

However, the definition I have given you is the stereotypical view of emo. You don't have to dress like that to listen to emo music and vice versa.

emo is short for emotional.
it sort of a "fad" thing at the moment, and everyone feels the need to be apart of it.
the style is sort of like "mellow, punk" i guess you could say.
