Lifetime and Vision WERE emo- that was where all this shit came from. Back then we called them "melodic" more than "emo" but Lifetime themselves (in a interview I did with them for a magazine) called themselves "emo" in 1993 after the release of "Background"

The phrase was coined around 1990- it was either expressed as "emo" or "DC style" if it was a bit more noisy.
