MCR (and later Panic!) was specifically a response to the emo trend and much more pop, as opposed to rock, angsty and depressed as opposed to optimistic. When you think emo, think your least favorite Weezer songs and AFI style. Panic! is pop emo. A mainstream reaction to emo counter-coulture. Emo came out of the "divorce epidemic" from while Gen X was in school as a literally emotional rock movement, it intersected with grunge and goth culture. Emo pop is post-911, post-internet, with millennials in school. --- "You're sorely underestimating the power of nostalgia goggles." - adjl http://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/20110218.gif ...
