Another subgenre of rock music that tends to be kind of like Nirvana fronted by Nick Cave. It's standard droning guitars, with impassioned moaning and groaning on top of it. In practice, emo-core bands tend to be a bit more varied musically, but they still feature the same singing style throughout. Emo-core music is very loosely defined, as you can see, but the following bands are considered emo-core : The Promise Ring, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Get Up Kids.
