Guest allsystemsfail Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 indeed they should. that album is fucking amazing.I think it's way overrated. Pretty ordinary really.

Hog Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 IMHO Emo is a type of music which utilises a part of the male vocal box which sounds like an angst ridden teenager who is trying to come terms that his voice is breaking and that everybody should feel sorry for him.

Can it really be heard outwith some forms of punk music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 and now here comes the mandatory purist metal head who still thinks emo is a trend that guys use to get laid.... *sigh* Stu, it's not just metal fans who take that view about it.
