Any fans of the Emo culture here?..
Let's discuss.. what are you favourite emo tracks.. (not just by emo bands)
I love Radiohead's Creep (though most won't consider this as emo)

I'm sure Radiohead would be loath to have any of their music associated with the emo "culture." I don't see the merit in looking just like all of your peers. That said, I think the notion of "emo," as a sort of emotional punk (lol) elite is really stupid and pretentious. That aside, the music is crap... Except for maybe old "emo" music like Fugazi.

I too am not a big follower of their fashion.. but it does look good in comics..
I just wanted to see if there was anyone who followed this.. and bring them all out to discuss..

I have no idea what emo 'culture is' but if people want to dress in a certain fashion, I don't really care, they're just kids - but big groups in 'uniform' are always pretty depressing.
I like punk sounding music so I like some emo - some's pretty good and some isn't - have to say I love Sunny Day Real Estate and yeah Fugazi but I like some MCR and the Used too.

Some of the music is total crap, but every now and then you find a gem =]
Adair, namely.
Old Chiodos [The Chiodos Bros]
Old MCR could be considered emo...

Personally, I am a fan of the pop-punk, alternative rock stuff that had a major influence on the emo bands around now, like one such band would be The Get Up Kids and even Tegan and Sara.
Not a fan of Emo though. not at all.

I thought that music style died out years ago.

Well, it's really like pop-emo now to be honest.
