They did get into a fight with the band Finch though, who I think are an emo band. They look like one.
edit: my bad, it was Disturbed that got into that fight.

I THINK. | You can also get in if you're Pennsylvanian Dutch, but that's more of a side clause than anything else. |

No seriously, they're not emo, in an emo way, maybe in a nu-metal way, but not emo-emo..  |

I hate Emo.
I don't think there's enough hatred in my being to withstand Emo Nu Metal.  |

I have the Shadows Are Security, and it sounds like the other melodic death metal CDs I have. |
