Chapter 2

An Emo by Any Other Name…

“Being called emo is a scarlet E across your guitar strap—a mark of shame or a reason to beg off and plead ignorance. Being an emo band is kinda like being in the KGB—everyone knows who they are, but no one admits anything and no one likes talking about it in public.”

—Andy Greenwald, Nothing Feels Good: Punk Rock, Teenagers, and Emo (2003)
