[Music] What is Emo?

[karohemd]

When puddingcat asked on Saturday, all davywavy and I could come up with was "The music raggedhalo listens to". While true, this obviously doesn't describe what kind of music it actually is.

I'd say, a variety of bouncy, punk-related guitar music.

Update: Wikipedia has this to say.

Does anyone have a better definition?

Ah, so when vulgwarcrimal said it was like the Smiths, that was pretty much spot on, right?
