Well, they're not really an emo band. They themselves are emo but, I don't know. They could be considered "post-hardcore" according to something on some aol site.
'Open discussion' 'voicing of opinions' when did anyone say you cant have opinions? I just find it odd that you seem prefer to only voice your controversial opinions and rarely your non-controversial ones. You're banging on about debate, no-ones saying there shouldnt be debate, you should voice your opinions on music on a music forum but you seem to be trying to start debates unnecessarily just to get up people's noses, though i guess you're probably doing it for entertainment factor.
