Emo is a type of rock music that is characterized by lyrics that express strong emotions. Emo has been around for quite some time and started as a subgenre of hardcore punk. What used to be as an underground type of music, Emo then went into mainstream. More and more bands chose Emo as their main genre. This musical genre soon developed a fashion sense that is common among its performers and fans.

My Chemical Romance’s I Don’t Love You, The Click Five’s Jenny and Dashboard Confessional’s Hands Down became all the rage among the younger sets and dominated the hit charts as well.
