Emo

This article is about the style of music.Emo is a style of rock music characterized by melodic musicianship and expressive, often confessional lyrics. It originated in the mid-1980s hardcore punk movement of Washington, D.C., where it was known as "emotional hardcore" or "emocore" and pioneered by bands such as Rites of Spring and Embrace.

As the style was echoed by contemporary American punk rock bands, its sound and meaning shifted and changed, blending with pop punk and indie rock and encapsulated in the early 1990s by groups such as Jawbreaker and Sunny Day Real Estate. By the mid-1990s numerous emo acts emerged from the Midwestern and Central United States, and several independent record labels began to specialize in the style.

Emo broke into mainstream culture in the early 2000s with the platinum-selling success of Jimmy Eat World and Dashboard Confessional and the emergence of the subgenre "screamo". In recent years the term "emo" has been applied by critics and journalists to a variety of artists, including multiplatinum acts and groups with disparate styles and sounds.

In addition to music, "emo" is often used more generally to signify a particular relationship between fans and artists, and to describe related aspects of fashion, culture, and behavior. (Nope not emotional and crap like you stereotypes like to think)

Emo

Emos are usually teenagers who listen to bands such as My Chemical Romance (MCR) and Fall Out Boy (FOB). They are usually depressed and love depressing others with their daily bitching about how everything/everyone sucks. Most emos self harm.
You would find that the typical emo wears stripey or skull-patterned shirts with skinnies and converse. To match their horrific taste in clothing, their makeup is usually overdone and very dark.
Both female and male emos have a fringe covering one eye. All emo males are homosexual.

EXAMPLE 1
A: OMG! Do you like my new top?
B: Ew! That's so emo!

EXAMPLE 2
A: I hate my life!
B: Stop being such an emo!
