    Despite what you people say, my favorite is, well, I'm not sure the name. Maybe alternative rock and....what is the word....*confused with music terms*

    Like, lets say, Breaking Benjamin, Cranberries, Seether, and Papa Roach to name a few *still confused*

    Rock is quite clearly the greatest genre ever. No-one can truthfully say that they haven't tapped along/headbanged to We Will Rock You.

    Nah. Come on and describe what is emo, then we talk.

    it's a music type to.
    In fact, emo doesn't really connote a musical style, rather following the spontaneous & miserable nature of the so-called 'musicians' and their feeble woe-is-me lyrics. It's more about the strange emotional approach in any guitar-based music, mostly indie rock and pop punk.

    But bah, the few times I had the disgrace of listening to FOB I could tell they're mainly punk rock/pop punk. God forbid they're moronic enough to try emo.

    EDIT: @mcrc: Exactly.

    And this, is why I will destroy all humans

    I give you props for trying....But....

    Okay, here I go again. Now (I know this won't chnge your mind, I don't care), I have asked 5 girls before, "Is FOB emo?". To that, 3 said yes. This proves a point of emo doesn't necasarily mean the same thing to others.

    Next point about this. Emo doesn't reflect of what they are saying. I'm taking it as how the music sounds, versus what the lyrics are. You semi- getting me?

    And now I will take those stupid smart alecked responses you have.

    Thanks.

    Necessarily*

    Emo is a genre, and like it or not, it's defined by the artist's attitude and lyrics, as well as live performances; the fashion too, and it's a title given to indie rock/hc punk when it bears those characteristics. I really don't care about any silly polls you have held, let alone when you say it takes only 5 girls for you to believe anything.

    What makes the screaming guitars and gut-wrenching lyrics different from punk? Is it emo fashion? And if so, what makes the dyed-black hair, multiple piercing and makeup different from goth? We're not going to discuss that here, but watch what you say, you might be babbling without stopping to think.

    And now I will take those stupid smart alecked responses you have.

    Thanks.
    I'm not making any ignorant claims.

    The genre in matter disgusts me, just for the record.

    first off 5 simple answers doesn't prove anything and if you would like to know what "emo" actually is before the whole "i hate myself" thing:

    https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=emo

    The sixth definition should clear things up, FOB is not emo.

    That definition is a laugh, "horrible pop rock", heh. I agree, though. Many genres like that have been misinterpreted by the popular opinion.

    Also, I've been debating whether Pink Floyd is progressive or not. Anyway, my favorite genre is prog rock... I'm bothering to add more genres to that list, can I?

    Added:
    Progressive Rock (Italian prog, art rock, space rock)
    Blues (Country-blues, delta, boogie)
    Jazz (Soul, swing, AG)
    Classical Music
    Other

    Edited "Disco" and those to "Electronic", since that's the main root.
