Bullet for my Valentine? Do you smoke crack?

[riskllama]

hmm, interesting thread...I will have to think about my choices for a bit.

[bigtoughralf]

I'd always assumed BFMV were emo, from the name.

Bullet for my Valentine? Do you smoke crack?

You clearly have no taste or understanding of music, so this list doesn’t apply to you.

I'm sorry i don't slit my wrists as a hobby you knob.

What is “Post-Hardcore”?

[DirtyDishSoap]

Don't answer him Demon. JB is our local "critic of everything."

Definitions of insanity need to be explained to him in greater detail because the word itself isn't sufficient enough.

Or dick bag.

I’m actually offended by this description of me.

Emo & post-hardcore are essentially the same thing…… In fact Ian MacKaye’s band Fugazi is arguably the first post-hardcore band and Ian is the one responsible for coining the term “emo”.

He's basically saying you're right. You could have thrown Staind and Seether up there too and get the same result.

Or you could have just picked some real music that doesnt require a razor blade.

Is that like Depeche Mode or The Smiths?

I thought Emo was more a style and less a music genre.

I thought emo was shit like Oasis. Would never imagine it having anything to do with hardcore, post or otherwise.

But you're my wonder wall

[Maxleod]

Regardless, I'm gonna play the music if I want.

I actually still really like listening to these guys :



not 100% sure if this qualifies as "emo" or not, I think I've heard it referred to as "shoe gaze" or some shit like that. close enough for me...*shrugs*
