Talk:Emo

]]Emo was shaped by other music genres, such as post hardcore, heavy metal, and grunge. Although bands such as Nirvana and Weezer aren't emo, they did help shape what emo is today.

Believe it or not I did Emo Dance Music in the 90s and actually influenced Nirvana! So the influence goes back and forth. See also: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0GvqMH5S5wpYWW2L0jzRUXIT Bee (talk) 08:46, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Source?

Hey so "Pet Sounds, the Beach Boys' 1966 album, is sometimes considered the first emo album." is an insane claim, and I don't see any source on it linked... should be removed or a source should be found. Foxhuman716 (talk) 23:53, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

It is sourced to [1], but even the source recognises it's not really correct. I agree it should be removed, it's a majorly WP:FRINGE take. Issan Sumisu (talk) 08:24, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

is that source not just saying "people say this" without giving a source as of people saying this? in that case i dont really think that's a source at all Foxhuman716 (talk) 15:24, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

That is exactly the kind of source needed to support a statement of this kind. Issan Sumisu (talk) 12:18, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

I agree with the OP: It's a very ridiculous assertion and we need better support for it (e.g., multiple sources) if we're going to include it in the article. The source itself implies that it's a dubious assertion. In other words: we don't need to include every opinion that can be reliably sourced--we can use our collective editorial judgement and include only the most relevant and representative views. The idea that Pet Sounds is an emo record is clearly not a view that we need to include, even if reliably (singly) sourced. I've removed it. Yilloslime (talk) 04:30, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

She possibly coined the word ‘emo’ as a clipping of ‘emotion’ leading to the concept of Emo music and its associated subculture (see Wiktionary for more info). Overlordnat1 (talk) 12:20, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
