btw... from an interview with Co&Ca's bassist:
DRE: Coheed & Cambria doesn’t seem to have a problem with being called progressive.
MT: That’s what I think we are. I know people tend to
shy away from that term but that’s the best way to describe it. I find
nothing wrong with it.
I mean fer f**k's sake, even the BAND calls themselves progressive, not emo. What more do you people neeeeed?

Czesgo, you're awfully defensive... and also seemingly very sure of what emo is or isn't.
I should also mention it's pretty emo to have a MySpace.

Hon, do you know *anything* about emo other than the stereotypes?
Fer god's sake, you probably don't like it when people get all on about
prog and all they've got to offer is misconceptions, so why must you
perpetuate that sort of behavior?

For one, the straight-edge thing is more prevalent in hardcore scene.
For another, I don't think the sci-fi story presented by Coheed and
Cambria has anything to do with "moaning about the boring things in
life".
You admit it, you know nothing about emo. You aren't qualified to
judge a band as such, and to be quite frank with you, it doesn't speak
well for you to continue defending a point that's been proven
invalid. Coheed and Cambria may be accepted by the emo scene, but
when compared to their actual music, lyrics, virtuousity, and other
IMPORTANT factors, their chance of being emo is null and void.

They sound emo to me. I will judge what the hell I want to judge. They sound emo to me therefore I will not listen to them. And hell what if I do know nothing about emo. I can still say it sucks because I have heard enough to know I do not like it.

You don't like it: That's a point that can be proven, and that's
fine. I don't like Magellan's new album, but you don't see me
trying to tell everyone it's not prog.
They are emo: That is a point that's been proven false, and you
appear to be a closed-minded buffoon by continuing to state it.
Continuing to do so will make you appear more and more unknowledgeable
regarding music.
Publius, my apologizes.

You're probably the most closed-minded and ignorant person I've ever
seen on this board. Please, get over your high school clique mentality
and come back when you're ready to accept that not everything can
easily be categorized into general stereotypes.
Furthermore, you've contradicted yourself so many times that it makes
my head hurt. You keep claiming Coheed is emo (which they're not), then
say you know nothing about emo (but still hate it for some reason). How
can you categorize a band in a genre you admittedly can't even
recognize? I'd like to see you make a list of emo bands just to prove
to everyone that you don't know what you're talking about.

Eh, don't bother. She'll hop onto MySpace and grab a random top
ten list that will no doubt include Coheed, where she's admitted she
got the
idea they were emo in the first place.

Getting off topic about what is emo and MySpaces and such... I have
re-registered C&C to the site by ways of revamping my "reasons they
should be included" section. I'll keep my fingers crossed .
P.S. Sorry to all those who don't like the band
I'm really not much into the "emo" scene myself, but the simple fact
that I listen to these guys constantly told me something. Love them or
hate them, I do insist that they are progressive rock, and even friends
and family members of myself who aren't particular to them consider
them "prog" over "emo"

Well, we're working on Co&Ca, my first "reason for inclusion" was
not up to snuff, so a basically sent a persuasive essay to the
administrators, lets hope the second time's a charm!

Deleted AGAIN, so quickly!? I might have to have a talk with the admin and find out why exactly he doesn't consider it worthy.
Yes, it's Roine Stolt... with a bit of a devilish slant.

Just leave Coheed and Cambria dead, they got deleted for a reason.
