I've always listened to a lot of stuff that's considered "emo" and I really don't care what anyone says about it. I love Far, I love Fugazi, I love Rites Of Spring, I love Quicksand, I love Embrace and everything in between. Mind you, Atreyu, My Chemical Romance and the like are the reason that everyone has an incredibly poor impression of the whole thing. I remember when I first got into the "scene" as it were, when no one had heard of "emo" or any of the bands. Those were great, uncomplicated times. I will always happily admit that I like emo.

Well said young man, buts its like any genre, they get highjacked by the mainstrean press, etc, and spawns a monster with average bands.

I think people should really get their facts straight though.

Atreyu aren't what you would call an Emo band.

They are a metal band. Thats it.
