Answer : EMO
emo – n
A particular style of hardcore punk rock
Any form of guitar-driven alternative rock that is particularly or notably emotional
Emo, originally short for “emotional hardcore”, has undergone many changes both stylistically and in the public perception of what exactly the term means. While the genre has many interpretations, the main factor that defines it is the sincere expression of personal emotions as the forefront theme, both lyrically and musically.
Midwest emo emerged as a style of Emo in the mid-1990s. Its advent is usually credited to Sunny Day Real Estate, who combined elements of their native Seattle, WA’s Indie Rock scene with the Post-Hardcore music propagated by Washington, D.C.-based Dischord Records. The music tends toward alternating loud and soft dynamics; off-key, strained or “whiny” vocals with little screaming; and “twinkly” arpeggiated guitar parts. Other prominent artists in this genre include Mineral, The Promise Ring and Texas Is the Reason. Artists such as The Get Up Kids and Jimmy Eat World, whose earlier output can be described as Midwest emo, helped to lay the foundation for what would become Emo-Pop.
Emo-pop is a style of music that had its origins in the Midwest Emo movement of the 1990s. Taking cues from artists such as The Get Up Kids, The Promise Ring, and Jimmy Eat World (Bleed American in particular), emo-pop took the sentimental crooning of Emo and crafted it into a sound with more mainstream appeal. As a result, the songs are more pop-oriented than those of earlier movements associated with emo, utilizing such elements as high production values, reliance on hooks, simple structures, and high-pitched melodies and singing.
