I guess this is emo, or post hardcore/pop, whatever, I don't care. It's good for what it is. Weird chords and chord progressions. The main good thing about it is that its all upbeat. I couldn't really get into the vocals. Musically its really creative. But I'll take catchy melodies over creativity any day (I gave the rip off band Huntingtons a B+). Don't let my score fool you, its really good if you like this type of music.
