"emocore" < term ian used in mid 80's to describe a certain music (i.e. the dischord bands mentioned above), a certain "post hardcore" strand of music.

i dont know, i always thought the term was silly. pretty much all music is "emotional" in some sense.

actually i think thrasher used that term and ian mackaye just made fun of it and called it a shit term. it's funny cause the end of the palatka record there's a sample of him saying how it's "all caca". the video is now on youtube.
