Sure, hearing song after angsty song about your ex-girlfriend who you were deeply in love with but she broke your heart and now you're mad at your dad is really damn fine music. But Finch owns, I lost my virginity to that album. Not actually having sex with the CD, though I did try...

You're entirely right. If you search for it on Wikipedia you can trace influences of all bands and most of todays modern bands are influenced by earlier metal or punk bands, who were in turn influences by older metal or rock bands like Sabbath/Maiden, who were then influenced by rock and roll bands and the who expressionist sixties, and rock and roll came, more or less, from Elvis who was heavily influenced by black music and the blues. So all of todays bands are basically offshoots of fifties blues and jazz music.

I don't consider Finch to be Emo.
Maybe I've just heard the heavier stuff.

The new album is "post hardcore" but Letters to You, the song most people have heard, is absolutely the epitome of Emo.
I haven't heard Finch's second one.
Although I like the first one. Not as much as when I first bought it, but still. Anyway, I don't think all the album is emo... Project Mayhem? Not emo in my books...

Ender is a bit too 'arty' to be emo either.
But on the whole, it's basically emo personified.

'Emo' confuses me. I can now recognize emo-scum when i see them, usually by their ridiculous haircuts and extravagent use of eyeliner, but the nature of their music eludes me. I have been told bands inculding Muse, FFAF, InMe, A7X and MCR are all emo, but different people seem to have different opinions on them. A little help please?
And just for the record, metal: infinitely > punk.
