Watch MTV...or listen to the radio since Emo and garage rock are starting to become like Nirvana in the early 90s. Pretty soon they will ruin it by over playing the music. Emo is such a broad sound that you would have to be more specific in what you like there are very very mellow bands and then skremo bands which are more hardcore and have a lot of screaming as the name implies. If you want popularized emo that everyone loves now adays go check out basically any band on vagrant (aka emotaph) records

Props to Line1260 for naming some kick ass punk/oi bands. I also like the Ducky Boys, Pinkerton Thugs, and Bruisers..

Kennebunk is the place in maine where the bushes have their summer house. There is a funny song by Good Clean Fun about emo people called - Last Night I Dreamed That An Emo Kid Loved Me
Its about the recent trend in hardcore of kids turning into emo kids. Its pretty funny like most of Good Clean Fun songs that rip on everyone and everything.

Victory sucks as a label in many ways. They screw over a lot of the bands they have on their label and are not really true to the scene like they try to seem. They sold out to a major label too, plus they sell basketball shirts of hardcore bands which has to be the lamest thing ever. You know a label truly sucks when half the bands signed by them bad mouth them all the time. They do have some great bands like Warzone (R.I.P.) and Blood For Blood...both of whom have said said negative things about Victory. How fitting Good Clean Fun also has a song about Victory Records sucking...

I have always been a big grade fan myself though... these are all bands from ontario that are really really good. if you like emo check them out.

Anybody mention The Get Up Kids? I've been listening to them a lot recently and really like them.

RiverRipper, why are you always ripping on others personal taste in music? You always getting very offened when people rip on Punk. I like the stuff you listen to, but just wanted to say you need to chill, b/c everyone has their own individual taste.

my personal opinion, emo sucks, but thats my opinion because i dont prefer emo, but, you said no 'pussy punk' only emo, well some people like to refer to emo as 'pussy punk' so please, dont say no pussy punk. i at one time in my life like a few emo bands, but thats all behind me now. one of the best bands to ever exist: the clash, so go download there whole first album beacuse it will never get old, 28 years have gone by and it is still one of the best punk albums made yet.

yes, the clash is great. so are the ramones, sniper, the sex pistols, and a whole lot of early punk bands. X-Ray Spex doesnt get enough credit for what they did. malcom mcclaren should be strung up by the balls though

I didnt rip on anyone's musical tastes, well at least in this thread. I was saying something to one of my friends I ski with not directed to anyone else thats why I said his name specifically. Dont get mad if you listen to sucky music and I point that out though, just messing with ya. Music is a personal taste, it would suck if everyone liked the same stuff.

RiverRipper, that's true to some extent...but ya gotta agree...the manufactured corporate crap that's coming out now is sorta disturbing. i mena n'sync and britney spears...ok yeah they're lame, but they wouldn't be as lame if they didn't lip sink their concerts...ok yeah they would be. but stuff like a new found glory and jimmy eat world...j.e.w. is still good...but nfg has no respect now b/c their voices are so processed and filtered they're not real anymore. go listen to some original blink 182 stuff and then hear them now...its just wrong.

I am not a huge fan of NFG, but I give props cause in their video the guitar player is styling a Youth Of Today shirt and also used to be in Shai Hulud...Their disk of all movie theme songs has to be the worst album ever recorded though. Doing a cover of anything sung by Celine Dion should be punishable by death.

The covers disk by NFG is sick. but in my opinion emo sucks, OH god feel sorry for me because my girlfriend left me and Im not good at anything. My friend tried to convince me that saves the day is good but all of their songs are quite similiar, oh well shitty band, what do you expect from jersey?

responding to the kennebunk post..........i live in kennebunk, and i dont really get it. and no kennebunk is'nt where the bushes have their summer home, thats kennebunkport...their almost like 2 different places....trust me...

and i think the reason overlooked is meationing kennebunk in emo because kennebunk has like 3 high school bands and all they play is emo..

other than that i dont understand overlooks post...besides the fact everyone in kbunk high smokes the herb almost.,

ah im missed, thanks andy for mentioning juliana theory, in my opinion one of the best emo bands that arent selling out and sounding like crap. some other good bands for all you MTV posers who want to listen to cool music would be Brandston, Ultimate Fakebook, new amsterdams, further seems forever, our lady peace (more indie)
and i like a tonnnnnn of indie stuff but i dont share
and yeah if you live in NJ, long island, eastern pa, theres alot of emo/punk rockers over here, its a good local music scene

HAHAHAHA, oi...gotta love the oi. Boston has a pretty large skin crowd most suck though and are wanna be thugs that dont know much about being real skins. Are you actually a skin or did you just hear about it in some dropkick murphy album, not trying to be rude or anything but are you like a sharp, red, or friggin racist prick?
