Are you sick of emo and punk, too?

Sex Pistols - EMI
Blink 182 - EMO
EMF - Unbelievable

anything-core is kinda lame unless it's alliterative or clever so how about APPLECORE? has that been used? where's my P&J ballot!

EMO is like emotional punk or something stupid like that, it's supposed to
be more serious and little less pointless than punk, but it sucks, avoid it
if you can.

sex pistols = pop
kelley osbourne = punk

It will go something along the lines of:

I like Green Day and Blink 182.
I like NOFX, The Dropkick Murphy's and AFI.
I like the Dead Kennedy, and Bad Religion.
I like Black Flag, Minor Threat and The Germs.
I like Snapcase, Boy Sets Fire and Sick Of It All.

Occasionally we progress to:

I like Reversal of Man, Hot Water Music and Slayer.
I like Dropdead, Born Against and Men's Recovery Project.

(this is where 99% of punks 'get off the boat' and become indie rock fags due to college.)

If they DON'T become indie rock fags (term used with the utmost kindness; I promise) it's will become:

I like Moss Icon, Current and Swing Kids, and eventually:
I like Lightning Bolt, Ted Leo, Against Me and Orchid.

I'd love to see other versions of this chart related to people you guys know or see around you; this is what it seems most kids in New England go through in their punkness.

gygax! may be stupid, but I still love him.

Also, let's not forget about the kids who head off into the dead ends of the punker evolutionary tree: crust punks and rockbilly nerds

Gotta reason she's not good? (Arguments invovled her AUTHENTICITY will be met with total disinterest).

Classic or Dud?

troll

1. v.,n. [From the Usenet group alt.folklore.urban] To utter a posting on Usenet designed to attract predictable responses or flames; or, the post itself. Derives from the phrase "trolling for newbies" which in turn comes from mainstream "trolling", a style of fishing in which one trails bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The well-constructed troll is a post that induces lots of newbies and flamers to make themselves look even more clueless than they already do, while subtly conveying to the more savvy and experienced that it is in fact a deliberate troll. If you don't fall for the joke, you get to be in on it. See also YHBT. 2. n. An individual who chronically trolls in sense 1; regularly posts specious arguments, flames or personal attacks to a newsgroup, discussion list, or in email for no other purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion. Trolls are recognizable by the fact that they have no real interest in learning about the topic at hand - they simply want to utter flame bait. Like the ugly creatures they are named after, they exhibit no redeeming characteristics, and as such, they are recognized as a lower form of life on the net, as in, "Oh, ignore him, he's just a troll." Compare kook. 3. n. [Berkeley] Computer lab monitor. A popular campus job for CS students. Duties include helping newbies and ensuring that lab policies are followed. Probably so-called because it involves lurking in dark cavelike corners.

Some people claim that the troll (sense 1) is properly a narrower category than flame bait, that a troll is categorized by containing some assertion that is wrong but not overtly controversial. See also Troll-O-Meter.

The use of `troll' in either sense is a live metaphor that readily produces elaborations and combining forms. For example, one not infrequently sees the warning "Do not feed the troll" as part of a followup to troll postings.

-- The Jargon File

Naga, since everyone is just being sarcastic and not actually addressing you: most of us know what emo is, and it's not "new," although the concept of it you're working from is. Emo goes way back to actual hardcore punk and then what was called "emo-core" (see Rites of Spring and Hated mentions above) -- there was then a period where it meant spazzy but more-indie stuff like Cap'n Jazz, after which it mutated into much more pop stuff like the Promise Ring or all those Nebraskan bands. Point being, the stuff you're talking about is like the sixth step in the progression of what people call "emo."

Q. What is emo?
A. grumble sigh www.fourfa.com

(Stencil, this couldn't possibly be a troll, could it? "Punk and emo suck" is just about the worst method of "trolling" ILM that I can think of.)

am i the only person who doesn't like rites of spring?

(the only fourfa page i like is the "hardcore emo" page)

Avril Lavinge threads?

I am only lukewarm, I like Ignition much better.

i only like a handful of rites of spring songs (they sound mostly like bad, middle-period hardcore)

hi.

I like the Dead Kennedys

I like Green Day and Sum41.
I like the Sex Pistols and the Clash.

I like NOFX, Bad Religion, and AFI.

I like Black Flag and Minor Threat.

I like System of a Down and Slayer.

Also, apparently at least as important as the music if not more so:

I like ranting about the evils of major labels, sellouts, and pop music. Also I pretend I live in a time before I was even BORN and go on and on about how evil Reagan is. (Bystanders are forced to take up aggressively pro-major-label, pro-sellout, pro-pop positions. The Reagan talk can be dealt with by eye-rolling.)

Also I do not like Rites of Spring but punk always disappointed me a little.

Right now I'm at the Black Flag stage. Interesting, I never once liked NOFX, AFI or the Dropkick Murphys.

and do you like it?

jonathan,
i'm a weredolphin i have no 80085 or \/@9|n@! eeeeeeeeeeep!!!! i like in the forest ocean!

do you do ave maria?

hmm i never liked the major part of punk (i'm a post-punk junky if you havn't noticed) ;)
although ther're some classic punk bands i like and listen to on a daily basis! here are some:
BUZZCOCKS
MINUTEMEN
crass
the misfits
husker du
bad brainz
ramones and other anti-boredom punk
green day is probably the last punk band i liked

didn't cobain once describe Nirvana as punk? i think was underrating himself

i hope emo isn't buzzcocks and husker du coz i never touch anything called emo:(

but it only recognizes like half the characters...

?

Oh, he's been there, done that.

their name is "The Jealous Sound" and they're from Los Angeles. I thought there songs were somewhat sophisticated and I really enjoyed the singer's voice (there is a reason for this if you do a little research). i only wish that they poured on a little more of the screamo instead of laying back at about 70% so the chicks didn't get too scared.

check them out if you are interesed!

golly.

* = Possible exception: Robert Smith.

there is NO exception.
he is not above the rule.

punk's long dead.
emo's hot on the trail to find out who dun it.
hopefully, emo will stumble over punk's corpse and rawk will turn around and open fire.

leaving pop as a witness, salsa as the 'getaway car' driver, and metal...well, metal's metal. and that's the way it goes.

So as it is written, so shall it be sung.
