Panic! At The Disco have a few catchy songs. No idea if they "qualify" as emo. Some people need to get a girlfriend instead of arguing about a band's genre  hihi

Dashboard Confessional are pretty good.  The lead singer sings with TONS of emotion and the songs are pretty solid.

I'm not too big into the really whiny emo, except for maybe a few Taking Back Sunday songs.  I guess the bands I think of when I use the term - Story of the Year, Funeral for a Friend, Thrice - are often described more as "post-hardcore", so take of that what you will.  All I know is that they have some kickass guitar playing.

I never really liked emo back in high school, but in the last while I've really gotten into certain bands that are sort of emo.  Funeral For a Friend are one of the best bands out there right now; they've got some really great riffs (what else would you expect from a band that regularly opens for Iron Maiden?).  If you haven't heard it, download "Juneau".  Apparently their genre is called "post-hardcore", but the lyrics are definitely emo.  But like I said, they still rock hard.

Another pseudo-emo band that I really like is Story of the Year"Until the Day I Die" is one hell of a rock anthem, and the band as a whole writes some really great songs.

Overall I'm just starting to appreciate more of this kind of music.  The bands I listed rock harder and are less stereotypically "emo" than bands like Taking Back Sunday.  They have some really interesting guitar parts and they really put energy into their live shows.

Does anybody else know any "good" emo bands?


Terrible band, terrible song, terrible music.

That's just your opinion.  I think Story of the Year are really good songwriters, but that's just me.  We'll agree to disagree.

Like I said, we'll agree to disagree.? I love "Until the Day I Die", and I think it gets better each time I hear it, because I didn't like it so much the first time I heard it.? Maybe it's because I have a friend that I always jam with who's really into music like that, and he's so passionate about it that I finally started to see the worth in it, and also because they just have some great guitar work, especially on the second album.? I'm not too fond of the band's image, but I still have to admit that they put on one hell of a live show.

Funny pic by the way...lol

I don?t know if this is emo or modern punk or what ever, but check out the finnish band called Disco Ensemble and their song "We Might Fall Apart". I like it.
