Kinsella's emo/post-rock pedigree includes stints with bands like Cap'n Jazz and Joan of Arc; American Football shares a similar esthetic, blending jazzy tempos, pop hooks, and earnest vocals into their sound.
- ^ Prato, Greg. „Cities - Anberlin | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
Thankfully, they don't specialize in that annoying frat-boy-esque shtick that some pop-punk bands do; instead, Anberlin can be quite an ambitious bunch that go the emo route.

During the 'Revolution Summer' of '85 many harDCore types reinvented themselves. 'Emo,' for emotional post-Hardcore, described the move to softer, more emotive music, embodied in Ian [MacKaye]'s project Embrace, Brian Baker's Dag Nasty, Thomas Squip's Beefeater, Kingface with Mark Sullivan, Bobby Sullivan's Lunchmeat, and Rites of Spring with Guy Picciotto and Eddie Janney.
- ^ a b c Greenwald, p. 14. "Ian Mackaye was such a huge Rites of Spring fan that he not only recorded what was to be the band's only album in 1985 and served as a roadie for them while on tour, but his own new band, Embrace, explored similar themes of self-searching and emotional release. Other peers followed suit, including Grey Matter, the archly political and arty Beefeater, and Fire Party, whom Jenny [Toomey] termed 'the world's first female-fronted emo band.'"

Molding hardcore, emo, and rock into one, the band is now on track to conquer the emocore scene with their debut EP, The Running, on Vindicated From Deep Water Records.
- ^ Anderson, Rick. „Failure On - Beloved | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
Beloved is obviously a band from the latter camp; it prides itself on fusing emo and melodic indie rock elements with hardcore's emotional bluster and turbulent guitar roar, and it does so successfully on its debut album.
- ^ Schabe, Patrick. „Benton Falls: Fighting Starlight (review)”. PopMatters. Accesat în .
...the songs here are compact slices of emotion that fit right into the indie/emo brand of power rock underpinned by mopey sentimentalism [...] Perhaps with time Benton Falls will write a spring/summer album to compliment it, although being an indie/emo Deep Elm band, it's not likely.
- ^ Greenwald, p. 46. "What Braid did better than any other band of its era was truly live the egalitarian spirit of emo. If emo is, on one level, the ability to move from sympathy for song subjects to outright empathy, then Braid blurred the line even further, engendering empathy for itself."
- ^ Zemler, Emily (). „Braid Singer Speaks on Roots of Emo”. The Eagle. American University. Accesat în .
Braid - a so-called emo band that is considered a forefather of the contemporary emo genre - has reunited for a U.S. tour...
- ^ Nanna, Bob (in Zemler). "When we first started it was [that] we kind of said, 'Yeah, we're an emo band' because the bands we liked we thought were emo bands - like Jawbox or Fugazi. Then it kind of took on this negative context and it got used against us. Nowadays it's just a catch-all term and it doesn't really mean anything to me anymore."

- ^ Breimeier, Russ. „This Is an Outrage, Christian Music Reviews”. The Fish. Accesat în .
The band [Capital Lights] has ditched all traces of screamo in favor of an emo, power pop, and punk rock blend...But while relationship songs like "Out of Control" and "Remember the Day" avoid specific clichés, they still resort to thematic clichés—precisely the kind of stuff you'd expect from other emo and punk bands.
- ^ Huey, Steve. „Cap'n Jazz: Biography”. Accesat în .
Short-lived but highly influential, Cap'n Jazz helped transform emo from a deeply underground punk subgenre into a more widely accepted subset of indie rock...along with Pinkerton-era Weezer, they helped shift emo's always-elusive musical focus from post-hardcore prog-punk to an arty but more accessible punk-pop.
- ^ Taylor, Josh. „Jesusfreakhideout.com: Chasing Victory, "A Not So Tragic Cover-Up" Review”. Jesus Freak Hideout. Accesat în .
[Chasing Victory's] debut EP, A Not So Tragic Cover-Up contains five songs that display their emo-flavored punk/hardcore sound...Chasing Victory is reminiscent of subseven and others in the emo/hardcore business...Nothing especially new, but most definitely worth a listen if the recent barrage of emo/hardcore bands is your thing.
- ^ Deming, Mark. „Chasing Victory | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
Merging emo, metal, and hard rock, Chasing Victory are a band from Camilla, GA, who have embraced a powerful, no-quarter sound to express a positive message.
- ^ Ankeny, Jason. „Christie Front Drive Biography”. Allmusic. Accesat în .
Denver-based emo band Christie Front Drive was formed in the autumn of 1993 [...] the group quickly earned legendary status in emo circles, and remains a major influence on up-and-coming artists.

- ^ Breimeier, Russ. „The Silver Cord, Christian Music Reviews”. The Fish. Accesat în .
Sounds like...anthemic modern rock laced with emo and hardcore, closest in sound to Mae, Fall Out Boy, Anberlin, Taking Back Sunday, The Juliana Theory, and Sanctus Real...The overall sound is bigger and more expansive than the previous album, never settling for the formulaic rut that most emo-laced modern rock settles for.
- ^ Spinelli, Tom. „melodic.net: The Classic Crime - The Silver Cord”. melodic.net. Accesat în .
Alternative Emo rockers The Classic Crime have recently emerged from the studio with producer Michael "Elvis" Baskette (Incubus, Story of the Year, Puddle of Mudd) with the release of their sophomore album out next week on Tooth and Nail Records, The Silver Cord and let me be the first to tell you its very promising...The Classic Crime shows us their growth and expansion of their sound out of the ordinary emo rock side.
- ^ John, Tracey (). „Coheed and Cambria, The 'Emo Rush,' Bring Prog-Rock to the Mosh Pit”. MTV.com. MTV. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
Most bands that fit the 'emo' or 'hardcore' descriptions follow the same scream-sing/ scream-sing formula, but Coheed and Cambria are bringing something different to the scene. That something is an unusual blend of prog-rock, emo and sci-fi fantasy. Consequently, the band has often been described as an 'emo Rush' due to its elaborate concept albums...

- ^ Dashboard Confessional Grows Up, and Emo Gets Its Own Generation Gap
- ^ Taylor, Jason D. „Four Wall Blackmail - Dead Poetic | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
Following in the footsteps of labelmates Embodyment, Dead Poetic's debut album is a spectacular emocore release that capitalizes on the emotional boom in a tremendous way...Some of Dead Poetic's largest assets are the vicious screams that supplement the desperation and sorrow that Rike emits from every pore in his body, giving the album enough edge to impress fans of hardcore as well as those more in touch with the tear-jerking emo of Dashboard Confessional.
- ^ Spencer, Josh. „Dear Ephesus review by The Phantom Tollbooth”. The Phantom Tollbooth. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
"After listening to Dear Ephesus's full length debut many times, I've realized that it is the first emo-core album I have really liked (Spencer)...This album, like most emo, is characterized by more varied or complicated instrumentation than normal hardcore or punk and having emotional lyrics, the themes here are primarily about the relationship between God and man...Fans of other emo-bands, particularly Sunny Day Real Estate, Roadside Monument, Blenderhead, and Damian Jurado should enjoy this release (Lloyd)...We don't have many bands like this in the UK. Alternative rock here is still suffering under the weight of brit-pop and brit-rock sounds, and for anything more "alternative" you have to turn to the upsurge of metal bands in the underground. With this album we get passionate vocals, interesting guitar lines, and lots of distortion -- I'm told they call it emo. (Stewart)
- ^ „HM - Internet Exclusives”. HM Magazine. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
When emo seemed like a new concept – back in the previous millenium – there were a handful of bands that seemed to get it right the first time (Brandtson, Appleseed Cast, and Dear Ephesus).

- ^ Eisen, Benjy. „Ben Gibbard Can't Define 'Emo,' Either”. Spinner.com. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
Neither embracing nor shrinking away from the elusive term [emo] that's commonly used to define his band, Gibbard described himself as an emotionally-heavy songwriter, having grown up on "music that was very heartfelt and personal."
- ^ DiChiara, Thomas. „Death Cab for Cutie's 'New Moon' Music Video Premieres”. Moviefone.com. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
It's a match made in emo heaven, as emo stalwarts Death Cab for Cutie have debuted their extremely emo new music video for the very emotional teenage vampire flick 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon.'
- ^ Jacobs, Steven. „Emo Bands Dismember Middle East Audiences”. The Crimson. Accesat în .
Both Death Cab for Cutie and the Dismemberment Plan are indie rock/emo bands.
- ^ Bogdanov, Woodstra, and Erlewineare, p. 320. "Washington, D.C.-based emo quartet the Dismemberment Plan...", "the Plan [...] are a fairly thrash-crazed example of what the term 'emo' used to mean. There aren't any apologetic weepouts, just calmer moments amidst pretty explosive performances."
- ^ Johnson, Jared. „Tension - Dizmas | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
[Dizmas] stuck with a production mix that favored the guitar work of Jon T. Howard and Josh Zegan rather than the typical hardcore bass/drums emphasis. The result was a triumphantly intelligent hard rock record that wove together the emo-rock of Taking Back Sunday and Story of the Year with values-based lyricism.
- ^ Langley, Jonathan. „Dizmas - On A Search In America | CROSS RHYTHMS REVIEW”. Cross Rhythms. Accesat în .
Dizmas are an overtly Christian rock outfit from California who blend, with interesting results, the emo sound of bands like Anberlin, the screaming urgency of an Underoath, with the deep-fried Southern cheese of an Aerosmith.
- ^ Huey, Steve. „Drive Like Jehu: Biography”. Allmusic. Accesat în .
Drive Like Jehu had a tremendous impact on the evolution of hardcore punk into emo [...] The term 'emo' hadn't yet come into wider use, and while Drive Like Jehu didn't much resemble the sound that word would later come to signify, they exerted a powerful pull on its development. Moreover, they did fit the earlier definition of emo: challenging, intricate guitar rock rooted in hardcore and performed with blistering intensity, especially the frenzied vocals.
- ^ Reid, Brendan (). „Album Review: Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime”. Pitchfork Media. Accesat în .
It's often easy to forget that DLJ were considered emo in their day; Froberg's howls of 'Ready, ready to let you in!' on 'Super Unison' seem like a sick parody of stylish vulnerability. Then the song mutates into a gorgeous, snare-drum rolling open sea, and everything you've ever liked (and still like) about this genre in its purest form comes flooding back.
- ^ Prato, Greg. „A Burn or a Shiver [EMI] - Edison Glass”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
An emo-sounding band with complex instrumentation -- sounds familiar, eh? If you're a rock fan in the early 21st century, it certainly should, as it seems like just about every up-and-coming melodic rock band owed a thing or two to the aforementioned style/approach. And the Long Island, NY, outfit Edison Glass certainly fits this description on their 2006 debut, A Burn or a Shiver...While there is certainly a familiarity to the proceedings, such standout tracks as "Today Has Wings" and the album-opening "My Fair One" prove that Edison Glass is a cut above your average emo band.
- ^ Cummings, Tony. „Edison Glass - A Burn Or A Shiver | CROSS RHYTHMS REVIEW”. Cross Rhythms. Accesat în .
If you thought all American rock emanating from the CCM companies was formulaic riffs-by-numbers, this band from Long Island are going to amaze and excite you. Somehow they've blended '70s prog rock, '80s new wave and alternative pop and '90s emo yet managed to come up with something that is fresh and invigorating.
- ^ a b Breimeier, Russ. „A Burn or a Shiver, Christian Music Reviews”. Christianity Today. Accesat în .
Topped with Joshua Silverberg's strained tenor, it's a shame that Edison Glass hasn't made its mark sooner with other emo-influenced indie rock bands like House of Heroes, Sleeping at Last, and Lovedrug already on the scene.

Along with Rights of Spring...Embrace is considered to have pioneered the emocore sound. [...] Legend has it the new sound prompted someone in the audience to yell that Embrace was 'emocore.'
- ^ MacNeil, Jason. „The Question - Emery | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
Emery try their best to fall just outside the vast domain that is "emo," but for all their efforts, the shimmering guitars, melodic verses, and at times larger-than-life choruses make their attempts fail.
- ^ Glynn, Lee (). „Escape the Fate: There's No Sympathy for the Dead (review)”. Gigwise. Accesat în .
Las Vegas 5 piece emo hardcore outfit known as Escape the Fate, release their debut EP...Shunning the typical fashionably suicidal aesthetic that seems to come part and parcel with most emo bands, Escape the Fate are awesome musicians...These Las Vegas boys will surely break free from the stigma attached to the Emo label as their sound is fresh, violent and full of promise.

It's as though the Jonas Brothers woke up one morning and decided to forsake all evangelical Christian activity to become an emo band with industrial elements that impersonates a rap-metal band. The missing link between Busted and Limp Bizkit? FF5 have found it.
- ^ Loftus, Johnny. „Fall Out Boy: Biography”. Allmusic. Accesat în .
Fall Out Boy rose to the forefront of emo-pop in the mid-2000s...the quartet used the unbridled intensity of hardcore as a foundation for melody-drenched pop-punk, with a heavy debt to the emo scene.
- ^ Shore, Tony. „Christian Music Reviews, News, Interviews, Listen to Free Online Radio”. Crosswalk.com. Accesat în .
'The Healing of Harms' is more than just a great album title; it’s a hard-driving blend of emo-core and hard rock.
- ^ Chalmers, Jeremy. „Fireflight - The Healing Of Harms | CROSS RHYTHMS REVIEW”. Cross Rhythms. Accesat în .
Fireflight have produced a very heavy progressive rock sound mixed with an occasional sense of emo, sounding fairly similar to Evanescence.
- ^ Monger, James Christopher. „Memento Mori - Flyleaf | AllMusic”. AllMusic.
Texas-based Christian rock/emo-metal quintet Flyleaf’s sophomore release jettisons the raw, punk-infused angst of its platinum-selling debut, replacing it with a thick, punchy theatricality that is as progressive as it is radio-ready.
- ^ Prato, Greg. „Flyleaf [CD/DVD] [Bonus Tracks/Ringtone] - Flyleaf | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
In the late '90s and early 21st century, there were "nu metal" and "emo," both of which included lots of hardcore-esque screaming combined with the usual metallic elements (heavy guitar riffs, hard-hitting drumming, etc.). While both new genres were the "metal genre of choice" for many an agitated teenager the world over, few of these bands were female-fronted. One of the exceptions are the Belton, Texas quintet, Flyleaf, led by diminutive singer Lacey Mosley.
- ^ Mason, Stewart. „This Too Shall Pass - The Fold | AllMusic”. AllMusic. Accesat în .
The Fold are the freshly scrubbed face of emo, a completely mainstream and radio-ready pop/rock band outfitted with just enough of the signifiers of a currently salable subculture to give the quartet a hint of street cred.
- ^ Frias, Sherwin. „Jesusfreakhideout.com: Forever Changed, "The Existence EP" Review”. Jesus Freak Hideout. Accesat în .
Part of the seemingly endless barrage of emo bands to hit the scene lately, Florida's Forever Changed released their debut EP for Floodgate Records in 2004...The songs on this album follow the emo formula effortlessly, offering no surprises whatsoever. Everything you'd expect from an emo band is here, from the yearning vocals to the passionate, soaring choruses...Make no mistake, Forever Changed does emo well, but perhaps they stick to the formula a bit too closely for their own good...So what separates Forever Changed from the myriad of emo bands out there? Not much, really. As the similarity in band names suggests, Forever Changed comes across as nothing more than a Further Seems Forever clone in an increasingly crowded Christian emo genre...While nothing on this EP will make the listener throw out the CD in disgust, there may be enough ingredients in this release to suit avid emo fans who prefer no frills and a straightforward approach to their favorite genre.
- ^ Taylor, Josh. „Jesusfreakhideout.com: Forever Changed, "The Need to Feel Alive" Review”. Jesus Freak Hideout. Accesat în .
Forever Changed plays an emotional style of rock that you just don’t see enough of today. But, then again, that is what makes it stand out. It is a sort of Evan Anthem sound with more of an emo-infused-punk twinge.
- ^ Nash, Len. „Forever Changed - a Review of The Phantom Tollbooth”. The Phantom Tollbooth. Arhivat din original la . Accesat în .
A band based around the Florida area, Forever Changed has music that can be classified as emo with passion that moves and accented hardcore yells thrown throughout...Lyrically, this is the closest a person is going to get in the pop punk or emo world for having lyrics that worship.
- ^ Caramancia, Jon (). „Dependent, Independent, Metalcore, Emo: It's All Punk to Them”. The New York Times. Accesat în .
...a stage-overwhelming turn by the promising young emo band Forever the Sickest Kids...

- ^ a b c d e f Greenwald, p. 40. "Bands that were lumped together in the emo camp back then [in the mid-1990s] varied wildly, much more so than today. The dominant sound was the melodic punk of the Promise Ring and Texas Is the Reason, but peers and tourmates like Karate, The Van Pelt, and especially Chicago's Joan of Arc played with elements of post-rock, including odd instrumentation and ample amounts of droning, wordless minor-key dirges. The Shyness clinic adored the Scottish noisemakers Mogwai, and emo mix tapes often included the Ivy League folk of New York city's Ida. At the Boston basement shows it wasn't uncommon to see the fresh-faced boys of Braid sharing the bill with the heavy rawk bombast of the Rye Coalition."

- ^ Breimeier, Russ. „There Came a Lion, Christian Music Reviews”. Christianity Today. Accesat în .
There Came a Lion is truly an emo-rock album, with the usual themes of love and angst...Relatable as emo may be for some, bands like Ivoryline aren't really known for their songwriting as much as their sound and live performance. Ivoryline does it as well as any...Unfortunately, Ivoryline comes across as the latest in a long line of emo sound-alikes.
- ^ a b Greenwald, p. 19. "Sunny Day Real Estate was emo's head and Jawbreaker its busted gut—they two overlapped in the heart, then broke up before they made it big. Each had a lasting impact on the world of independent music. The band shared little else but fans, and yet somehow the combination of the two lays down a fairly effective blueprint for everything that was labeled emo for the next decade."
- ^ Greenwald, p. 20. "Spanning two coasts, three genres, countless throat polyps, and an entire generation of heartsick boys, Jawbreaker is the Rosetta Stone of contemporary emo."

The boys from Indiana added two new tracks and a bonus DVD, re-releasing the collection as Apparitions of Melody: The Dead Letters Edition. The album's nuances remained the same -- a base of modern rock, indie, and emo coated with David Paul Pelsue's raging vocals.

Aggro meets emo on A Love Hate Masquerade, the latest from Kids in the Way. The first three songs here ("You Dream," "Better Times," and "The Innocence") are much more melodic than KITW's previous outputs, somewhat in the Good Charlotte/All-American Rejects area. Everything else is the same that we've grown to expect from this band: loud, aggressive in your face emocore that pounds you from beginning to end.

Melodic hard rock tinged with punk and emo...At first listen, it'd be easy to peg Letter Kills as the latest hard rock band of the month, but they actually do a better job than most at subtly blending genres, drawing from classic rock and heavy metal as much they do from punk, hardcore, and emo.
- ^ Taylor, Josh. „Jesusfreakhideout.com: Letter Kills, "The Bridge" Review”. Jesus Freak Hideout. Accesat în .
You can trace elements from many different emo/rock bands, but the best representation of their sound would be a direct mixture of Kids in the Way and Dead Poetic...Grinding guitars and Shelton’s emotional vocals lead the way through twelve tracks that at first listen may seem a bit repetitious, but after a few more spins, most every fan of emo, rock, alternative, and the like will find a new favorite in Letter Kills.

"No band embodied [the mid-1990s emo] aesthetic more than Texas's Mineral, a quartet of deathly serious young men...In many ways, "If I Could" is the ultimate expression of mid-nineties emo. The song's short synopsis—she is beautiful, I am weak, dumb, and shy; I am alone but am surprisingly poetic when left alone—sums up everything that emo's adherents admired and its detractors detested."

Even more obscure than they were groundbreaking, Moss Icon was an early emo band whose music remains chiefly the province of hardcore collectors and underground historians. Whether that music directly influenced or simply presaged modern emo, Moss Icon's shifting dynamics, chiming guitar arpeggios, and screaming, crying vocal climaxes helped set the template for much of the emocore that followed in its wake.

Three albums into a career is a bit early for a band to have settled into a formula, perhaps, but any fans of the first two albums by Christian emo outfit Number One Gun will find album number three, The North Pole Project, more of the same: melodic meat and potatoes alt rock with generally positive lyrics that nonetheless allow for some spiritual doubt...Highlights include the first single "Wake Me Up," which features the album's most immediately catchy chorus, the solo acoustic changeup "The Different Ones," and the atypical "This Holiday," which trades Schneeweis' familiar emo framework for a straight-up pop song.

Before the term got applied to every Weezer-lite band with guitars and a singer in nerd glasses, emo was an offshoot of hardcore punk (see Rites of Spring, early Fugazi, etc.). The short-lived Saetia, whose demo tape, single, LP, and one compilation track are collected on this 23-track, 73-minute disc, never forgot their history, and A Retrospective is emo at its purest ... a powerful slab of emo, and both an excellent starting point for newcomers to the genre, and an essential document for fans.

Weezer were an introductory course in all things indie and emo...with their second album, 1996's Pinkerton, Weezer took those wide-eyed kids and shoved them face-first into a whole new genre of music: emo...Weezer were by no means the first modern 'indie band'; they weren't even on an indie label. Nor were they the first 'emo' act (that was probably Washington, D.C.'s Rites of Spring). But they did perfect both genres — and made them both accessible to the masses.
