    Default My Chemical Romance - Emo or Not?

    Do you think that the band My Chemical Romance is emo or not?


    I for one don't think so;
    MCR is actually one of my favorite bands.

    For some reason everyone says they are?
    Even though they technically don't even consider themselves emo,
    and they're not naturally listed under the 'emo' genre of music.

    ee;
    gerard and mikey i believe actually were emo in their high school days; or something like that.
    i dunno though cause i really support the theory that emo is just a crappy label. iunno.
    but gee + mikey had lots of issues and stuff, and they like to dedicate their band to help out those like that, i guess?
    like.. i believe they made their band to inspire, rather to just be saddymcsadsad.
    anyways; i love gerards quote::

    I dont think having a My Chemical Romance action figure will make a kid start his own band, I like to think it will make him save children from a burning building.

    when i used to listen to mcr, their music could have been considered as 'emo'. or a result of the early 90s emo bands that existed. so like "post-emo" the same way bayside & silverstein are considered 'emo'.
    now their music is just pop. there's nothing groundbreaking or defining about it, it's just what every other band COULD make.
    in another term; awful.

    If you heard some real Emo music then you will know that MCR are NOT Emo.

    Nah, I don't think so. Emo is thrown around way too much.

    Some of their old songs are emo-ish, but to be honest yeah, comparing actual emo bands to My Chem shows they're pretty much not emo.

    very, very far from emo. people have misused emo as a cover up of "boring generic fashion-based pop-punk"

    like thingy ma bob said, if you heard some real emo you'd know they are anything but emo.
