Because some people like her voice? Because people kept making music after the hoary old 60s/70s dinosaurs?

Rites of Spring ~ For Want Of

How the hell did this band get labelled emo? I mean, it's barely even "post-"hardcore. You may as well call Hüsker Dü emo if Rites of Spring are.

I've always felt a few bands got a rough ride with being given the emo tag post-dated, but at least with a band like Sunny Day Real Estate you can directly see the musical connection to the stuff that the bands labelled emo when it was big were putting out, even if the whole maudlin-self-pitying-lyrics and black-Robert-Smith-hair-and-eyeliner-and-tight-black-shirts-and-studded-belts imagery wasn't what they were about. There is also a direct link to math-rock in some places if you go from a band like Faraquet ("mostly math-rock with a bit of emo styling") through a band like American Football ("mostly emo but with some math-rock tendencies), but I just don't see how Rites of Spring fell into this.

Very underground garage punk, I would say.

Don't mind it at all.
