MCR is just theatrical pop punk. Not real emo.

I had no idea Emo started in the DC hardcore scene! I always associated it with the skinny jeans and eyeliner era. 🤣 Such a misunderstood genre.

Linking DC hardcore to My Chemical Romance is a gigantic category error. The 2000s wave was merely theatrical pop punk with a heavy coat of eyeliner.
