I am Christian and I like screamo music. Plain and simple. I've grown to love it after I got out of my bubble that my parents placed me in. (You know the parents they only let you do, listen and watch certain stuff) I hung out with a few emo kids and hated their music but after I decided to explore the music I grew to like it. But my friend says its ''devil music'' and won't listen to it. I get the fact that the people who are screaming are most likely atheist BUT what if they aren't. Then what's wrong with it?

Nothings wrong with it. I listen to it too & I'm Catholic. I think it's the fact that they scream. It's not devil music or whatever...

I Listen to it . And?  Today my mom did a search on one of my favorite bands,Black Veil Brides. She said they looked ''weird'' because of the body and war paint they where. She thought they like worshiped the devil and some other crap. She basically stereotyped them and I told her not all metalcore/heavy metal bands that wear paint and make up and guy liner are freaken devil worshipers!

Yeah I think its because they scream too. Most of the songs don't have any anti-religious stuff in it. So it has to be the screaming

My friend stereotypes those bands too. I showed her brokeNCYDE and all she heard was the screamo parts they do (She didn't even LOOK at them yet) & she's like "You know they cut themselves right?" I hate people like that -____-

Ohmagosh, if I ever even said I liked a scence/emo band she would freak. She would not let me listen to BVB, BOTDF or anything like it. Only stuff like Paramore and maybe Evanscence. For my parents its all about the image they send out.

My dad pretty much hates everything I do. He's always getting onto me for listening to "devil music" and getting piercings, but he signs the consent form anyways.

A better question is "Why do most people hate screamo music?", to which the answer is quite clear.

i think as long as the words aren't bad then it it's not bad music. to me it all depends on the words.
