I would personally destroy Hannah Montana, The Jonas Brothers, and any Disney themed band. I got in trouble in another forum when I said "Anyone who likes these bands should castrate themselves and eat their tiny balls," but I really do mean it. =)
Every single Emo, Rap and Country band (or musician). And also, 'The Last Goodnight' as I'm sick of hearing 'Pictures of You' being played over and over and (expletive of choice) over by certain groups at work.

Would you consider certain metal bands (Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God, and Disturbed) Emo? If so, which ones?

Not too sure, I don't listen to much rock/metal music (most of what I have heard is a no), so I'm not familliar enough with those.
One way I categorise whiny emo rock is as follows: You have a singer singing, they try and scream but sound like a teenager who's voice has yet to break.

I think this says all I need to know about your intelligence level. Stop making useless threads please. I don't have anything against a thread to discuss music in, but a thread whose title and context openly promotes nothing but flaming, fingerpointing and immature language is not what I want to see on these forums.
Coldplay. They have so much potential, but absolutely, steadfastly refuse to live up to it in any way. You listen to their early stuff and think "wow, with some experience these guys will be amazing." But ten years down the line nothing's changed. It's like they recorded everything in one go and have been drip-feeding it to us ever since so they don't have to write anything new. Sigur Ros largely fits this description too. I just can't stand it when talented artists stagnate. I don't know how they do it, and if a slap would wake them from their reverie, I'd do it.
As for the bands mentioned in the first post, why give them any thought? It's like getting angry at water crackers. They're harmless, and totally irrelevant to everything in your life.

One, don't insult my intelligence. You don't know me and I don't know you.
Two, I was simply asking which bands people can't stand. If this starts a flame war because some moron who can't except someone's interests and views, I'll take full responsibility.
And lastly, I by no means promote FLAMING, FINGER POINTING, and IMMATURE LANGUAGE. If this offends you, then oh well. You shouldn't have read this post in the first place and commented.

"Don't insult my intelligence"? I've only ever heard that line once before - on a COPS show uttered by the most stereotypical dumb american cop I've ever seen. Try coming up with something intelligent, then I'll consider not insulting it. As long as your posts reek of retard, expect to be insulted.

No, you weren't. You were asking which bands people would "pimpslap" and stating examples of bands you would "destroy", then making a reference to another forum where you got in trouble for telling people to castrate themselves. I mean, really, what did you expect?

See above paragraph. You use immature language at several points in the thread, including the title. I'm not offended by the language, I just think the post is so utterly useless I don't want it on the forums. The mere title suggests a flamewar - with you far from being an innocent inciter.

1) Cops sucks. It is the same thing every episode. Oh look, an arsonist just jumped a fence! Please, I see more action when I watch my dog chase its tail!!!
2) The destroy part was my way of emphasizing pimpslap. And the mentioning of the other forum was me basically saying; "This may or may not start a flame war. If it does, oh well, my fault."
3) I know I would be far from being innocent if/when this does start a flame war. DO you think I'm that slow? I know exactly what this may start and I know that everyone was going to respond differently. Also, if YOU think this post is utterly useless, then why did YOU even decide to post?
Point made.

Yes, but by the time I reached the fourth level or so, I found it too overwhelming and the fun factor kind of went away so I stopped playing. I'll get back to it someday
I need to play the age card again...
Is 'emo' just short for emotional ?
Please help me understand.
Will check back after I've had my soup and bed bath.
