What's an emo?

[storealex]

I don't think we have that in Denmark. At least I don't know what it is. So, what is it?

 

[Trajan12]

Emo is short for emotional. It is used for a type of music that is angry and pessimistic usually.

During the 80s, that would be punk.
During the 90s, that would be gothic.

Emo kids like to wear tight girls jeans.

i am suggesting the such.

someone can not be "emo"

During the 80s, that would be punk.
During the 90s, that would be gothic.

and in the 70s, it would be glam.

What is very wierd to me is that the same thing emo to others, is "hard or "gangsta" coming from a rapper.

 

[Atlas14]

Well, I'm not emo and I do that.

Well when I have sperm production overloads I do as well.

 

[storealex]

Oh now I get it, it's a sort of Goth thingy

Someone cannot be emo? What are you implying? That emo kids do not exist?

I would also say it's emo but it's quite an extreme emo look.

Yeah, kinda like a goth, only they act like girls.

 

[Mr. Dictator]

yes.

have you ever heard of a scene kid?

and to say someone is "emo", when "emo" is a genre is insane.

can someone be "psychedelic"?

or can someone be "industrial"?

what about "funk"?

Agreed. It looks more borderline gothic than emo, but it is still emo.
