EmocoreEmocore is a genre of music, a style of emo, which itself is a derivative of punk rock. The term "emocore" (from "emotional" + "hardcore") first came into to use around 1985 when it was used to describe certain bands in Washington D.C.'s hardcore punk scene who, to the great consternation of hardcore purists, began introducing very un-punk emotional themes in their music, including sadness, hope, compassion and even love. Two such bands were Rites of Spring, who are gemerally credited as being the first true emocore band, and Embrace.
