I've been identifying the songs that play at this coffeeshop by googling snippets of the lyrics. The last one turned out to be by Fallout Boy, and I didn't like it at all. This always happens, I hear some band ridiculed as being for angsty pseudo-intellectual whiny losers, and I think "omg I am an angsty pseudo-intellectual whiny loser, this should be awesome!" and then I hear it and it's NOTHING like the descriptions led me to imagine. Even Radiohead wasn't entirely what I hoped. What gives?
-
otoh I really like this "don't let me fall out of love" song by No Doubt, pretty much just because of the synth beeps.
-
Fallout Boy isnt really "Emo", its some weird "Emo/Punk" bastard child. I think Dashboard Confessional started the shift, shame on them.

You're just too emo for emo music. Most emo musicians would slit their wrists again to be as emo as you.

This is what I was going to say. Emo musicians don't really have any problems so they write songs about them to make themselves look emo.
You already seem to have a boatload of problems and by the amount you talk about them you don't need emo music to remind you of them.
-
while I do currently have a lot of problems, they are entirely due to bad decisions I made in the past which I knew were bad even at the time.
-
like others said, fall out boy isn't really emo. listen to fugazi, one of the first emo bands, who are actually very good.

that's even worse. when bad things happen to me that i have no control over, i don't feel that bad.

The Dave Aude remix of "With Love" is my secret vice :-*

maybe you should go back into the origins of emo with stuff like rites of spring and the like
-
You probably don't like emo music because you're actually not emo. I think you actually have to get chicks to be emo, right?
And why are you searching for snippets of songs and then not liking them? Why would you search for the snippets if you didn't like it?
