Let's clear something up. In this thread, Emo does not refer to bands such as My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy. In the 80s, emo was a term used to describe punk rock with an emotional drive. From then on, it also evolved into an umbrella term of sorts, as bands of other rock genres have been labelled as such, like post-hardcore, math rock, and so on. Here are some personal song recommendations: Sunny Day Real Estate - Seven Mineral - Gloria American Football - Never Meant Pop Unknown - An Offering The Pine - Days Slipping By After Words - Looking Back
