Emo Origins
Emo originally started in the '80s when Ian MacKaye of Minor Thread decided to make punk music less about politics and hostility; and more about the feelings of the listener. Nobody knows exactly who coined the term "Emo."

Snowing
A combination of pretty much every genre of Emo. It's got Math, Screaming, from the midwest, and is the forefront of the modern movement while still maintaining under 50,000 listeners on last.fm. Probably the best thing about Snowing is that they realeased all their music for free. Their demo tape "Fuck Your Emotional Bullshit" is only 5 songs. Snowing broke up in 2011 and played a final show in a church, here is a bootleg recording of the show.
