Do you miss screaming? Didn't it thrash your vocal cords? And are you happy NOW just singing in the traditional manner? Thanks for the inside poop erinm. Do you miss screaming?

I had an emo band once. I 'sang'. Needless to say it didn't involve singing much, more screaming. Maybe the raw end of emotional is a better phrase?

Sorry man, I had no idea what to expect. I half was thinking perhaps it was a retro-Neil Diamond thing or Barry Manilow. But "emotional?" Whooeee! Everything is screamed. The drums are the predominant instruments; all else is a wall of sound. I'll listen to it again to see if I can get a handle on it. Right now, I prefer my definition of emotional, otherwise, let's all just get along and settle for a broad interpretation of EMO. Erin and Andy

Emo kids liked to sing about getting dumped by girls (the bands then were all fronted by guys), your zine getting a crap review and how no one understood you. The usual. It's morphed a bit since then, and I wouldn't say cutters are connected exclusively with emo as a music genre. Anyone I knew who did that was much more connected with the goth scene. But - that could have changed, it's been awhile.

So, I'm trying to see the relationship between emo and cutting. My mind is open, but somewhat baffled. I don’t get it: I’m a bit behind the times, but “emo” means “emotional” right?

From what I learn from my teenage daughter and stepdaughter, this "cutting" phenomenen is more widespread than I ever imagined. They claim that "emo" music is the domain of cutters everywhere.
