'''Emo''' is a form of rock music, currently usually considered a sub-genre of alternative or "indie" rock.  It is thought that the term emo derived from the fact that, on occasion, members of a band would become spontaneously and strongly emotional during performances, giving rise to the music term 'Emotional Hardcore'. Emerging in the mid-to-late 1980s as a distinctive form of Harcore [[punk|punk rock]], the genre has recently gained popularity thanks to bands such as: [[Fall Out Boy]], [[My Chemical Romance]], [[Dashboard Confessional]], [[Taking Back Sunday]], [[Coheed and Cambria]], [[Brand New]], and many others.

In 1983, the DC [[punk]] scene began to lose popularity and many of the bands of the [[era]] had started to break up. In 1984, the band [[Husker Dü]] began the slow start of the early emo movement with the release of their album, [[Zen Arcade]]. The album featured melodic songwriting, intense vocals, and punkish guitars. Soon afterward, bands such as [[Rites Of Spring]] and [[Embrace]] began to perfect the "DC Sound" with their music. Later on, this style of music begins to be referred to as "emo-core".
