Seriously people, WHY is it that people who like Linkin Park are stereotyped as being "emo". I mean, it's ridiculous and fucking stupid if you ask me.
I happen to like Linkin Park, but that doesn't mean I'm some depressed loser who takes pleasure in self-mutilation (as is the stereotypical description of "emo" people). I happen to enjoy my life (for the most part, nothing's perfect after all...) and I would never hurt myself in any way for any reason.
Just because I or ANY group of people like a certain band/singer and/or a certain musical genre does NOT mean that they are the stereotypical groups of people who are often associated with liking such music.
For example, I'm quite sure that NOT every person who loves Country Music is a hillbilly or a cowboy, and that many of them have probably NEVER been to a ranch and/or farm in their entire lives. Similiary, not everyone who is into Hip Hop is a "gangsta" and could easily be some kid growing up in the suburbs.
People, you CAN'T judge others based solely on the music they listen to.
Linkin Park belong to themselves and whichever record company sells their albums.
Linkin Park is nowhere near "emo" In fact, country music is more "emo" than Linkin Park. Then again, country music is more emo than most of the bands that are tagged as such I won't get into a rant over this. Cause I have self control... *crosses fingers*
True. I mean, most country songs are about losing love or something like that. Linkin Park is more along the lines if "I'm pissed off and I want EVERYONE to know it". That's not "Emo" in any sense of the word.

They are a very good band. The worst place where people accuse them of being "emo" is on Youtube. Seriously, you won't believe all the negative comments I've seen regarding AMVs (Fan Videos) using Linkin Park songs. I mean, some of the fan videos are actually quite good. Heck, there's even several great tributes to the Gojira series that use songs by Linkin Park.

It really pisses me off.. Do you see Linkin park crying in a corner? no, it just pisses me off how disrespected they get. People stoop as low as to call them "emo", i bet they call anything wearing black "emo". What bullshiters.

I bet those same people who accuse Linkin Park of being an "emo" band also think it's "emo" to shop at Hot Topic or Spencers....

Every group pisses me off. I'm a strong follower of the saying "I'm not prejudice, I hate everyone equally".
