I have to admitthat I can't name many hardcore bands. I've heard lots of it; I just couldn't name who it was I was listening to. I can name Agnostic Front, if that helps any.

suicide machinesalthough they have Ska-y elements so god knows what that does to genre classifications if anything.
wasn't it more the post hardcore that spawned theemo.. although it is post hardcore.. so with out hardcore it would of just been post music... I guess.

I thought emowas an abbreviation of 'Emotive Hardcore' and started life as regular hardcore with teenage angsty subject matter.
EDIT: "Hardcore with teenage angsty subject matter" seems somewhat redundant, now that I think about it.

hmmm...the version of the story I know goes it started in detroit where bands like Fugazi where taking off.. and the term Emo came out as a bit of a piss take to describe the music.. as they were " a bit.. emotional." and then the media latched onto the term and boom a genre was born.
although.. this is a tale told by those that don't like the genre.. so is possibly heavily biased. also I have not a shuddering thunderfucking clue if fugazi are hardcore or post.. but my head is saying post.
