yes or no.

Astrocloud · 05-08-2005, 08:11 AM

I am "Mr. Oldschool" and think that Husker Du is emo.

1slOwCD8 · 05-08-2005, 10:29 AM

I havent heard that many songs from them, but from what ive heard id say yea.

brandon11983 · 05-08-2005, 08:43 PM

Death Cab is not emo. Listen to them compared to the fucking Used or some emo shit and find any resemblance.

illogan · 05-08-2005, 08:45 PM

death cab is so emo. emo emo emo emo emo. you will never win this battle.

Glory's Sun · 05-09-2005, 06:12 AM

They might not sound like traditional emo.. but they are whiny..

scott_p_1 · 05-09-2005, 11:13 AM

I'm going to have to say no.
Other than having a couple whiney songs, what makes them emo?

Master_Shake · 05-09-2005, 01:57 PM

The AMG lists them as Indie Rock and Indie Pop but not in the super-whiney category of emo. I'll admit it's a tough call.

maximusveritas · 05-09-2005, 02:09 PM

eh, who cares? What does it mean anyway?
I only care if a band is good or not.

Redlemon · 05-09-2005, 02:29 PM

I'm so pathetic that not only could I not be able to pick out Death Cab out of a police lineup, I only have the vaguest idea what Emo is.

/ goes back to listening to Reel Big Fish

Also, illogan, tell us a bit more. Why did you post this poll? An argument among your friends?

jonjon42 · 05-09-2005, 02:42 PM

why must we genrify (sp?) everything

if it's good, that's awesome
if it sucks, stop listening.

(emo=! bad, despite popular opinion)

Everytime · 05-09-2005, 06:36 PM

Who cares what it is, they kick ass. Talented bunch.

illogan · 05-10-2005, 11:22 AM

i just made this poll to show up that brandon kid, the music snob.

brandon11983 · 05-11-2005, 07:38 PM

I'd be careful about insulting one of the more respected and established members of the site, son. I also don't feel the need to defend my knowledge of music to someone like you.

Illogan, we at the TFP are adults and do not create threads to bait other members. At least not in this forum.

we don't feed trolls or welcome trolls, regardless if it's aimed towards a "respected" user or a complete newbie.

i'd put them as hipster fluff. I like the songs, but have yet to discover the depth that people go on and on about.
