Nah I'm no emo.. But fuck how can you say that a band like Fugazi isn't punk (even though they were called emo by alot)
I mean alot of bands that would be labeled emo are really just direct off shoots of hardcore punk.
Like i would consider all this punk just cause of the sheer rawness and attitude of it all... "have heart" was actually a very politically active band.
AFI was "emo" but was FUCKING BADASS before they got signed to a major label.. they did some actual punk shit. now they suck so hard.
don't get me wrong though, i actually like a few bands that are super emo that aren't punk at all, from second wave emo in the mid 90's.. like sunny day real estate, the get up kids..
but nah I wouldn't say i'm emo lol.
