I got severely owned in this thread, and I shall withdraw for now until I have updated my knowladge on all the genres I am ranting about.
Edit: Looking this up, I arrived at the conclusion that even though the music of Evanescense and bands like it have nothing to do with Emo, they do classify as Emo as far as the modern definition of the emo genre goes as by far the most of their songs are about broken hearts and pain. So I was partially right.

No, you weren't. By the same notion, if I form a crunkcore band that happens to have a song about a medieval Cathedral, is my music gothic?
