Emo is impossible to pigeon hole.

Emotional music is different to the listener , for me personally it's bands like HWM / Gaslight anthem / Leatherface /chillerton / four dumb kids because it stirs emotions in me when i listen to it.

I have never heard of fall out boy been called pop punk.

Yeah but emo doesn't really refer to emotional as much as emotive. Fine line sure but a line nonetheless. Hell Mr. Ian MacKaye coined the term to describe I think it was Fugazi originally.

Actually is was describing Embrace and Rites Of Spring. Fugazi came after what emo really was. I just wish people would stop using that word entirely.
