*'''Not Emo:''' Weezer is not an emo band. Emo bands don't release songs like "[[I'm Your Daddy]]" and "[[The Girl Got Hot]]." ''[[Pinkerton]]'' was huge, though. Even though emo music probably would have happened without it, Pinkerton was a nice rallying point for all the angsty white guys that would eventually form the bands that the article talks about. The fact that it failed commercially also helped a lot, because it made them feel like they had discovered this underground sensation.<br> --[[User:MyNameIsJason|MyNameIsJason]] 04:42, 10 January 2011 (EST) | *'''Not Emo:''' Weezer is not an emo band.

*'''Not Emo:''' When I was younger, before bands like My Chemical Romance | *'''Not Emo:''' When I was younger, before bands like My Chemical Romance were popular, bands that were labelled emo where bands like Nada Surf, The Get Up Kids and Jimmy Eat World. And even if Pinkerton could be seen as Weezer's most emo sounding record, it is completely different from those bands' music and even more different from today's emo music. Did Pinkerton inspire those bands? Maybe. But that doesn't make Weezer emo. --[[User:Donny|Donny]] 05:33, 10 January 2011 (EST) | ||
