Someone on Reddit said that and now it's going viral amongst the emo fandom*...with everyone agreeing. And yes...it is.

*before anyone makes any ignorant or ill-informed remarks about what the emo fandom is, the median age of emo fans in 2020 is probably something like 32.

Top 10? No. But a great record. I saw them open for My Chemical Romance like...10 years ago? Nobody but me knew who they were and I was stoked.

It's the morning of Black Friday; how can you expect most of us to have even heard of an album released the day before, let alone rate it, especially if you don't tell us the name of the band that released it?

This album is 20 years old.

I sincerely hope you were pretending to miss  my joke. However, I doubt that.

Half of the top ten albums ever made were made by the Beatles. The other half were made by Led Zeppelin.

Wrong.

One fifth were made by the Beatles. One fifth by Pink Floyd. One fifth by Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony. One fifth by Lucio Dalla. One of the remaining two are Selling England By The Pound and you're free to fill in the last slot.

No.

I AM 32 and the greatest emo album ever is "Fallen" by Evanescence, which does not crack top 10 all-time.

These are both wrong IMO, but they're a million times more accurate than Full Collapse being on the top 10 list.

That's not even remotely emo. Its basically nu-metal. It has zero influence connected to the Revolution Summer scene of DC 1985.

However while Evanescence has nothing to do with emo, I definitely enjoyed this video:

WIKIPEDIA
Emo /ˈiːmoʊ/ is a rock music genre characterized by an emphasis on emotional expression, sometimes through confessional lyrics.

The phrase "emo music" means what society says it means, regardless of what the original meaning was. If you were to specify "post-hardcore emo", "emocore" or "screamo", you wouldn't be opening yourself up to these open interpretations.

But that's an absurd definition. What about pre-1985 rock music with an emphasis on emotional expression?

As far as I can tell, "emo music" didn't exist before the 1980s (or maybe late 1970s?). According to society, that is.

No that's the point. Emo music did not exist before 1985. No emo in the late 70s or early 80s or prior. But there was "music with an emphasis on emotional expression" released before then. Plus artists who were making music through that era too. Is The Cure's post-1985 work emo but not the stuff before?

Source: Wikipedia

The band's debut album was Three Imaginary Boys (1979) and this, along with several early singles, placed the band in the post-punk and new wave movements that had sprung up in the United Kingdom. Beginning with their second album, Seventeen Seconds (1980), the band adopted a new, increasingly dark and tormented style, which, together with Smith's stage look, had a strong influence on the emerging genre of gothic rock as well as the subculture that eventually formed around the genre.

Looks like in 1980 they were some kind of post-punk emo. Obvously they were not post-hardcore emo or emocore, and definitely not screamo.

They weren't emo at all. There was no such thing as emo until the summer of 1985.
