Emo

Emo is a genre of rock music characterized by an emphasis on emotional expression,
sometimes through confessional lyrics. It emerged as a style of post-hardcore from the
mid-1980s hardcore punk movement in Washington, D.C., where it was known as emotional
hardcore or emocore, and was pioneered by bands such as Rites of Spring and Embrace
(notably not the British band of the same name). In the early 1990s, emo was adopted and
reinvented by alternative/indie rock and pop punk bands such as Jawbreaker, Sunny Day Real
Estate, Weezer and Jimmy Eat World. By the mid-1990s, emo bands such as Braid, the
Promise Ring and the Get Up Kids emerged from the burgeoning Midwest emo scene, and
several independent record labels began to specialize in the genre.
