Emotional hardcore, or Emo, is a genre that was born from the hardcore movement. Like it's distant cousin, Punk, Emo is fast, brash and loud. Emo music can be generally described as "sad" or "depressing," with lyrics generally discussing the more upsetting aspects of life, such as loss, heartbreak, peer pressure, etc. in a confrontational way, hence the "emotional" label. 

Teenpunk, also colloquially called Pop-Punk Emo, is an aesthetic that was prevalent from the mid to late 2000s, although there has been a recent revival with the "Draculaura aesthetic." This aesthetic is heavily influenced by Pop-Punk music and consumerist culture surrounding Corporate Alternative fashion, including vendors like Hot Topic, Claire's, or Justice. Teenpunk is characterized by its colour palette involving black, white, and pink, and motifs involving "edgy" stuff that was popular among Alternative Millennials and Gen Z teenagers of the time, like colourful hair extensions, skulls, stars, checkerboard patterns, fishnets, Monster High dolls, etc. Like the term Pop-Punk Emo implies, it shares many similarities with the Emo subculture, but it is closer to pop culture and Pop-Punk music. Avril Lavigne is considered one of the pioneers of this aesthetic. 

Emocore is a type of post-hardcore, but more emotional and somewhat melodic. Also known as Revolution Summer or First Wave. Notable bands include Rites of Spring, Embrace (US), Moss Icon, Gray Matter, and Dag Nasty. This term was highly rejected by the band.

Often considered the more light-hearted, math-rock influenced variant of Emo, Midwest Emo tends to go for more of an Indie/Geek vibe than the darker, angsty Emo original recipe. 90s stuff is commonly known as Second Wave, and 10s or 20s - Fourth Wave or Midwestern Emo Revival.

Emo-Pop is a genre combining Emo and Pop-Punk. Emo-Pop features a music style with more concise songs and hook-filled choruses. Well known Emo-Pop bands are Fall Out Boy, Paramore, My Chemical Romance, and Panic! At The Disco. This music genre is not the same as Emocore. However, one can still identify as Emo if they tend to listen to more Emo Pop, since Emo-Pop is a type of emo music. Also known as Third Wave. 

Screamo (also referred to as Skramz) is an aggressive subgenre of Emocore that emerged in the early 1990s, emphasizing "willfully experimental dissonance and dynamics". Screamo is strongly influenced by hardcore punk and is characterized by the use of screamed vocals. Lyrical themes usually include emotional pain, death, romance, and human rights.

The Revolution Summer Movement

The Revolution Summer movement of 1985 marked a pivotal moment in the history of punk rock and hardcore music. Originating in Washington, D.C., it signified a shift in the cultural and musical landscape of the punk scene, emphasizing emotional expression, political activism, and a rejection of the violent and macho posturing that had come to characterize much of hardcore punk.
