Emo is a style of music. If you listen to emo music, then you are emo. Most people misunderstand what emo really is. Most people think that if someone wears a lot of black, has diagnal bangs, black nail polish, black hair, tight clothes, cut themselves, heavy make-up, and seem to never smile... theyre wrong!
Example 1: I did a little experiment, I acted "fake emo". I wore heavy eyeliner, black nail polish, etc... and people actually asked me and said something about me being emo. My friend, she listens to emo music, but i would probably never be able to tell if she was emo!
Example 2: I actually used to cut myself a little (not my best moment, I admit) and some people found out and called me emo... I just shook it off because I know emo is music, not style!

EMO: a Corprate Fad. Poser Punk. Rich spoiled kids who wear girl pants. True punks bet them up because EMOs are so dumb.

That stupid EMO thinks EMO is punk.

a way of life that is either often rejected or misinterpreted. those that are emo will never admit to actually being emo because then that would be another form of conforming to a meaningless consumer driven life. emos are driven in a meaningless life but they do not allow themselves to become consumed in materialistic items. they are vampires to society, never will they accepted. nor do they wish to be. they view life as constantly shitting on them and personally i agree. life does always find its little ways of making those humble suffer enernally
emo is a way of life often misinterpreted as a fashion statement

A white, middle class person that hates life because everyone else does and thinks it's cool to not conform to society, even though they're all conforming to other emos.
#2 Waste of space on society, wasting electricity for their constant myspace sessions and running up hospital bills for when they cut themselves.
#3 Listen to screamo metal such as my chemical romance and bullet for my valentine then quote pointless lyrics for their myspace name for people to realise just how much their life sucks.
Emo 1: "Dude my life is so crap :( i only have 2 comments on my new photo."
emo 2 : Yeah that sucks..wanna do pc4pc?

Originally a music movement in Washington D.C. combining punk with even faster guitar riffs and screaming, with bands like Rites of Spring and Embrace, emo, or "emocore", became popular on the west coast as well. Most emo bands of this time for breaking guitars on stage, screaming out lyrics, and doing anything else that got people's attention. Basically Jimmy Urine, on crack. Emo's second wave was hit up with a softer more melodic sound with more riffs and songs that were all incredibly long. This came to be with bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Jawbreaker (which later become Jets to Brazil), and Texas is the Reason. Emo went mainstream and got more people's attention with more popular bands today. These bands include Dashboard Confessional and Phantom Planet. Nowadays, it is incredibly hard to know what true emo is as most people think that popular bands like Fall Out Boy, Panic at the Disco, and My Chemical Romance are emo. However, all of these bands have denied such claims. "emo is bullshit, we're the next Radiohead" -Brendon Urie (lead singer for Panic at the Disco). Emo is now often associated with Screamo. However, this is typically untrue. Hawthorne Heights is under much debate and can be seen as somewhat emo. With songs like Niki FM which follow a second wave emo pattern.
Some bands that are NOT emo include:
Senses Fail
Bullet for My Valentine
Aiden
Hopes Die Last
Alexisonfire
Underoath
From First to Last
The Used
The original style of emo was simply whatever you could find at your local thrift store. Combining the style of your grandpa, with that of a nerd.
There are many more but these are just a few bands that many believe to be emo. Sorry to all the 13 year old girls who actually thought they were truly emo.
"Oh my God, I love My Chemical Romance! I'm so emo!"
"Oh really? Because I like Rites of Spring,"
"Who?"

You can tell emo kids because they never refer to themselves as emo. they're always 'scene' or something like that. They'll try to talk to you about how emo is the incorrect classification of their culture. They whine and moan about the true origins of emo, etc... This is a dead give away for an emo. Other than that they're really the same as gothics, hardcores, punks or whatever misguided angst filled teenagers filled with hate are calling themselves now.
there are no black emos. period.
Me: What it do emo biddie?
Emo Biddie: OMG! R U KIDDING ME?? i am not Emo i am Scene! there is not such thing as emo! your just a puppet of the corporations like mtv that try to define me and my subculture...
Me: Woah! Slow your roll, i didnt ask fo no life story! I Just wants to know the happy haps!
Emo Biddie: I tried to kill myself by holding my breath but it didnt work.

In a nut shell...
Emo (the style) consists of a group of people who are very musically unrefined--like to listen to choppy, cheap, bands that haven't been signed yet. They wear dark, skinny clothes and in general immediately look nonconforming on site.
emo (music) sometimes refers to the music that emos (style) listen to, but not always. Emo music consists of lyrics based off of lost girlfriends and how much one's life sucks. The singing is usually equivalent to semi-acceptable karaoke.
Dude, that kid is so emo it scares me. Emo music is cheap.
