    Emocore stuff was also later on and seen generally as a pop-poser spinoff of punk and metal culture. It got uniquely hated on by both mainstream and alternative cliques because of this.

    I personally went through a pretty extended punk phase and never really got picked on. I actually made plenty of friends with jocks and stoners in high school, while wearing a pretty cringe getup with operation Ivy patches and shit.

      I gravitated toward nu-metal/industrial with wide leg JNCO pants and ball-chain necklaces.

      I haven’t even heard of “emo” being an actual style until now. I thought it was just goth. Maybe because it’s a couple years after my time. I’m an older millennial, graduated high school in 2000.

        Yeah, I’d say Emo really got going after 2000, at least in my experience
