de defenitie van emo ken je ook niet hè?
quote:
Emo is a slang term derived from the word "emotional", used as a misnomer to describe a range of fashion styles and attitudes affiliated with emo music. The term is also used negatively to describe a general state of unhappiness or melancholy (as in "to feel emo"). Emo is also used as a noun, often pejoratively, to identify a member of the "emo scene" or someone viewed as fitting the "emo" stereotype.

Fashion and culture
There are two popular forms of dress that are considered emo. The first is essentially derived from the 1990s "indie emo" scene, and has connections to indie rock, grunge, and punk rock. It includes more vintage and thrift store clothing, typically for a well-worn look. Some of the clothing leans toward khaki colors. T-shirts are typically of smaller sizes, and with various prints, often images from the 1980s punk culture. Bags and backpacks often have pins and patches of various bands.
The other popular style of dress focuses on darker colors. Commonly seen styles include straight, dark colored hair, either black, red, multi-colored (brown and black, red and purple, etc.) which covers one eye, males wearing pants tailored for females, lip, eyebrow, and labret piercings, and dark make-up on males and females (most notably black eyeliner, although red and pink eyeshadow is becoming increasingly popular). A common accessory for both males and females is glasses with a dark coloured (usually black), thick rim, a style sometimes even worn by persons who do not require corrective eye-wear. Wristbands in various colors are also popular.
Converse All-Star style shoes are common amongst both styles of dress, as are Vans and other skate shoe brands.
While "emo" is often used to describe the dress and attitudes of fans of emo music, "emo" as a musical genre and "emo" as a slang term are largely separate. "Emo" as a musical genre long pre-dated the use of "emo" as a slang term. At the same time, most current bands are labeled "emo" unwillingly, largely because they share some of the fashion trends and attitude associated with "emo" as a slang term.
There is also a common stereotype that associates "emo" with self-harm, most notably cutting wrists, partly due to song lyrics associated with "emo" bands, which often speak of acts of self-destruction. However, apart from the anecdotal, there is no significant evidence of any correlation between emo and self-harm.

Emo is a subgenre of hardcore punk music. Since its inception, emo has come to describe several independent variations, linked loosely but with common ancestry. As such, use of the term has been the subject of much debate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deathrockquote:
Deathrock (also spelled death rock) is a term used to identify a subgenre of punk rock, which incorporated elements of horror and first emerged most prominently in the West Coast of the United States during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The music of "modern" (post-1990) deathrock bands have a stronger post-punk influence than the earlier deathrock bands. Additionally, the term "deathrock" can be used as a synonym for first generation gothic rock.
quote:
Deathrock emphasizes a creepy atmosphere and an introspective mood within a punk or post-punk musical structure. Deathrock songs use simple chords, echoing guitars, a prominent bass, and drumming which emphasizes repetitive, tribal beats within a 4/4 time signature. To create atmosphere, scratchy guitars, keyboards, and experimentation with other instruments are sometimes used. Lyrics fan vary, but are typically introspective, surreal, and deal with the dark themes of isolation, disillusionment, loss, life, death, etc.
However, the frequently simple song structures, heavy atmosphere and rhythmic music place a great demand on the lead vocalist [1] to convey complex emotions, so deathrock singers typically have strong, distinctive voices and a strong stage presence.

Deathrock Clothing
Death Rock fashion is characterized by layering black and white clothing. The clothing more often or not comes from thrift stores and frequently includes older designer clothing which has been altered in some way and extensively accessorized. Occasionally, vibrant reds, greens, blues and purples will be used as accent colors, especially for dresses, jackets, tights, and when dyeing one's hair. Clothing items with black and white, black and red, or black and green stripes are also extremely common. Much of the clothing, particularly t-shirts and fishnets are often ripped or torn.
One of the staples of the deathrock look is the excessive use of torn fishnets and tights, varying in colours, worn on the arms, body and legs.
The most common colours in the deathrock scene are arguably black, white, and bright, neon, horror-movie style green.
Common Deathrock clothing items include black jeans, tight black or colored plaid bondage pants, short black or colored plaid bondage mini-skirts, black lycra mini-skirts, black or white lace skirts, etc.; black or white deathrock band or horror movie t-shirts, black, white or colored corsets, black or white dress shirts or polo shirts (both normally worn with a narrow tie), black or white camisoles, black or white lace tops; black, white or red fishnet tops (normally worn under other band t-shirts or corsets); black or white sport coats with band patches sewn onto the back; black denim, cotton, or leather vest w/band patches sewn onto the back; black leather motorcycle jackets with death rock album covers painted onto their backs; black or white tights, black and white striped tights; black fishnet stockings; and near-mandatory Dr. Martens boots.
