A lot of people on this board seem to enjoy grunge, but hate emo music. Is this only because they are old? Because the music is pretty much the same, only grunge musicians wore more flannel and less eyeliner.

Discuss. -_-

You're a fucking moron, and have no idea about music so take your retarded ideas and listen to ABBA douchebag.

How was that?

Cobain was a major emo yes. But Pearl Jam has some fucking masterpieces and even the notion of comparing them to the total suckage of emo is blasphemy.

Anyway, to speak more seriously, isn't the punk -> grunge -> emo the way this music genre evolved?

No. Emo has its roots in Goth.

Not really, the fashion has been influenced from goth a little but, but musically it's Hardcore Punk.

Yeah but the age and mind-problem defined demographic groups who were goth in the past become emo nowadays.

Fuck you, you shitlicking analrobbing assbandit. If I could, I would skullfuck you with a rusty, serrated iron reinforcement bar.

Given that I cannot, it shall have to suffice to wish a horrible death on you and yours, and a rapid end to all your wordly relationships except the ones that are causing you physical or mental anguish.

:punk: :bash: :cthulu:
