"Are we an EMO band? No!" Says My Chemical Romance

My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way says his band should not be classed as 'emo', slamming the genre as "bullshitt".

The "Black Parade" rocker said the group's sound is completely different from "emo" bands, and music reviewers would realize it if they paid attention.

He told US college website The Maine Campus: "Emo's a pile of shitt, fucking garbage. There are bands we get lumped in with that are considered "emo" and that starts to make us "emo" by default.

"All I can say to anyone actually putting the records next to each other and listening to them [would know there are] actually no similarities."

MCR doesn't want to be classified as an EMO band I guess.
