por que?
Ok, you were correct on the fugazi thing... emotional hardcore moved away from the straight up thrash it out 50 second songs that dominated the 80s and moved more into singing that yelling (big difference to screaming)
On the "emocore" bands i think its a little harsh to put in some quality bands lumped in with some extremely unoriginal bands that just became popular...
eg.
-Earth Crisis basically started up the big mosh heavy metal tinged hardcore bands of the 90s and were big proponents of the vegan straight edge lifestyle
-Snapcase took hardcore into a more progressive place (similar to Refused) and paved the way for a lot of bands to be more experimental with hardcore, punk etc.
-similarly Alexisonfire started something a bit different with their duelling vocals and as much as people try to pigeonhole so many bands as screamo, emo, core this and core that the simple fact is its just music and people will like what they like...
so... on the knowledge tip i can highly recommend bands such as,
descendents
all
dag nasty
black flag
suicidal tendencies
sick of it all
champion
betrayed
comeback kid
for now...
and some aussie goodness
mid youth crisis/one inch punch
irrelevant
toe to toe
and... if you like bands like refused, snapcase, the bled, alexisonfire check out an extremely underated band called BRISK
