i wonder why are so many teens nowadays so into emo/screamo(or whatever you call it) bands when only little does pay attention to them when they first appeared? give some opinion on this if you feel like to.

The general youth is into making themself stand out from everyone else, the sad state of that has left us with a whole bunch of people looking the same just this time they look scene instead of well normal youngsters. I am avoiding calling people emo as people are not music. So the right word of terms and use is: "The scene kid listens to emo music". But anwyays, the reason people listen to emo or screamo music? Its simple, very simple... Emo and screamo owns. Same reason so much people listened to Beatles before (still do though but thats beyond the point).

Hello. I guess, this has to do with age. I mean, when you were younger you never realized that you were such an emo being until you see and hear people (younger ones) being so into rock music, or alternative stuff where screaming comes for free. :)
