    Fugazi has been called emo since all the yahoos started that word. It was originally called "melodic hardcore". Basically any hardcore band that decided to say more than "your a friend that stabbed me in the back..." and write songs with chord changes and melody- and actually attempt to sing a song.

    Some of the starter were:
    Turning Point
    Supertouch
    Verbal Assult
    Samiam
    Liftime
    EndPoint
    Flagman
    Vision
    Split Lip

    Then the first Sunny Day Real Estate came out and all went to hell.

    And of course everyone says that "Embrace" was the original emo.

    Promise ring turned it into the pansy shit you hear today.

    The look thing is so funny. All the haters and lovers based on the look is too funny.

    NEWS FLASH:
    EVERY BAND OF ANY SOUND HAS A LOOK.
    Your not suppose to like a hip hop band cause they got Jerseys on,
    Your not suppose to like emo cause they were glasses,
    Your not suppose to like indie cause the have vintage shirts,
    Your not suppose to like hardcore because they where XL and knit hats,
    you cant like rock music cause the got leather jackets on,
    You can't ike punk because of the spick bracelets

    The game never ends-

    Me I put in a CD- if it sounds good- its golden- I could careless who is in the band and who is wearing what.
