I agree with most of that, but there are bands that classify themselves as emo that really rock, I mean headbanging rock sometimes, like Emery or My Chemical Romance, only the words are emo. The first time I heard Emery (which was really the first emo band I ever listened to) I realized how much ppl make fun of emo bands and how exaggerated it gets...dude, before you trash those 2 bands, just hear their guitarists, all four of them (yes, four, 2 in each band) are as good or better than metal guitarists. And both bands scream too.
And limp bizkit, yes right now they really suck, but the first album was tolerable for me...and before you say that they are all screamo and vulgar go listen to "Everything".
okay another thing guys you have to draw a line between what genres you personally don't like and what really sucks. IMO if you think an entire genre should die, then obviously you simply don't like that genre and if you don't like a genre how are you supposed to criticize an artist of that genre?
oh and hitman, hurt and heal...that's pretty old you know...
