What's your opinion on which bands are "actually" emo? do bands like MCR, PTV, and Evanescene not count? or are they honorary emo bands? (p.s first post in the group hope this sparks some conversation!)

I know this is months old, but I'd also recommend The Fall of Troy and AFI (everything between Black Sails In The Sunset and Decemberunderground)

I'm waiting for someone to copy paste the "real emo consists of the DC emotional hardcore scene and the 90's screamo scene" shit
I've heard that a ton
It's kinda true but it's also a massive purity test and gatekeeping shit
"Poser" music is good, "real" emo music kicks ass, have fun with it.
