>>EMO=Rites of Spring and other mid-80's Dischord stuff.
right on. here's the 1st paragraph from AMG's write-up on Rites of Spring:
"Because the term emo has come to define a sensibility more than a particular sound, it can be difficult to pin down even if you're not an outsider. Yet there's a general consensus -- by no means universal, but fairly solid -- that Washington, D.C.'s Rites of Spring were the first true emo band."
