emo is short for emotional music. Basically it is a bunch of teenagers that write songs about how their girlfriends left them or some bullshit like that and then they get all depressed. They always include a fury of rage in their songs to make it seem like they are hard but they are just good at making shitty music.

nicely put.

they can't sing, they can't play guitar, they can't drum, they can't play bass.  Kraut, try listening to REAL music and learn some shit.  I play guitar myself, so I'm sensitive about how these crap ass kids are considered incredible musicians.  Here's some GOOD MUSICIANS, who are mainly guitarists, but on these songs they wrote and play every instrument in the songs.

Jason Becker - Mabel's Fatal Fable
http://david.elknise.tk/jasonbecker_mabelsfatalfable.mp3    <--- the 4th guitar in the backing would be considered an incredible emo's lead guitar

Shawn Lane - Hardcase
http://david.elknise.tk/shawnlane_hardcase.mp3


For guitarists, POWERCHORDS, isn't playing guitar.  You either gotta know the minimum 120 chords for rhythem, or scales and techniques for lead.

EMO
straight powerchords, no music theory knowledge, no specific scale, fuckin retarded kids who pick up a guitar and in 5 minutes are pro because of ignorence and those money hungry bastards at Virgin and MORE So SHRAPNEL who sold out.

music theory, speed, knowledge, scales, chord knowledge for the arpeggio sweeps.

and the video for it....
http://www.chopsfromhell.com/guest_cooley1.html   <---- click on the TV


Emo song.....  look at the length, and the skill... all powerchords... . short
http://www.mxtabs.net/tab_versions.php?path=Guitar,h,20205,Hawthorne+Heights,Silver+Bullet,164215

Real song....   loot at the length, and the skill... extremely long, complex, and no repeats
http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/c/cacophony/speed_metal_symphony_ver2_tab.htm   <---- Jason Becker released that song at age 17, just like a lot of emo kids, but he still had skill
http://www.mxtabs.net/tab_versions.php?path=Guitar,y,1667,Yngwie+Malmsteen,Far+Beyond+The+Sun,127835


now, go download and listen to those 3 songs.  WHICH IS better?  Which takes more skill?  Which should be considered PROFESSIONAL.  Hawnthorne Heights can be played in a matter of 5 minutes by someone who's never played guitar before.

I went to a punk show once, and there was one emo band (midtown) who got booed off the stage, because everyone came to listen to real music. It was Strike Anywheres, The Epoxies, Midtown (booo), and then Anti-Flag (best band ever).

[ICEMAN]

lol, punks not any better.  It's still no music knowledge just without the bull-shit crying and complaints about their parents.

Anti-Flag, isn't really a "band."  They started out as an activist group to talk out and aware the public of government activities.  But, they didn't have a way to get it out to the general public, so they all went out and bought instruments, learned them in a week (powerchords, crap, just like punk), and turned their publications into lyrics.

I always say, I'm slightly retarded, but it took you to say that for me to realize I was a dike too!  Thanks bone!


---Kraut--- try playing the fallout boy songs, and then try playing some of that tabs I listed...  at the real speed.  Go download some stuff from Jason Becker, Shawn Lane, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, and try to play it.  The difference between emo and falloutboy's guitarist is about 5 days of guitar playing.  I know I sound like a total asshole, I'm just overzealous about music, and spend all my money and time into it.  I mean fuck, my newest guitar is 9-string 36 fret conklin costing 7.5grand.  Just listen to some of the shit I posted and maybe it'll catch your ear and you'll learn some of it.

[*MAFIA* ßlåkjáx]

wow dude, u must have ALOT of money to spend if u bought a $7500 guitar, would u like to share the wealth?

EDIT... i still really need a car lol, i hate crashing...

[*MAFIA* KrautKiller]
