WHAT THE HELL.

You did NOT just call The Academy Is... EMO. YOU DID'NT. Okay, you did but this is kerrang and you would label anything emo. This is hilarious, they're anything but emo.

Also : YES TAI DATES! Probly promoting for the new album. :)

RE: WHAT THE HELL

They are soooooo emo. Becket is Wentzy's BFF and they're on Fuled By Ramen. Sounds pretty emo to me.

RE: WHAT THE HELL

And even when you're replying to someone, you have to mention Wentz.

Andymark's going to love that.

RE: WHAT THE HELL

Oh so thats your definition of emo. Explains alot. You spelt Beckett wrong BTW.
Ignorant people. TBH this place is dead without Andymark. And looking down on bands 'cause they're classed as emo is one thing. Mis-labelling a band 'cause of their friends and label is another.

RE: WHAT THE HELL

So true.

The Acadamy Is...are emo.

They're pretty awesome though. People should stop being so sensitive about this emo thing. It's no big deal, it's just a name.

Grow the fuck up!

Omg, when will people stop this war between what is labelled what genre ? This is emo.No it's not.Yes it is. Does it really matter ????
Also, why do people look down on something if it is classed as emo?
It's not like a person is any wiser or stronger than a person who listen's to emo! It's what they like! and there doesn't need to be this constant fight over it. If you don't like the music, don't listen to it. SIMPLE!

Theres no such thing as "emo"
emo is just a tag people have picked up coz you wear tight pants an have a fringe.
if emo means emotional then why isnt everything emo?

Oh, dear god..

If you don't like the music, don't listen to it. If you don't like the band, don't listen to them. But just because you don't like them doesn't mean that you should slander them, or label them. Everyone has a right to like the music they want to like. People are happy to call other people or music emo, then complain when someone does the same to them, it is pathetic, really..
Is there really any need for these childish, pathetic arguements?
I spend a lot of time listening to these types of arguements at school these days..
How old are you lot anyway?
Do me a favour, and grow up a bit..
And why are people who obviously don't like The Academy Is... even bothering to look at their gig dates? Looking for a fight?

Anyway i'm going to see them in London in six days..

17th September..
WOOP WOOP
