Goth Emo Music is a Defining Quality

The thing that most firmly defines the subcultures of Goth and emo is their music. Goth emo music each has its own distinct and individual flavor. Many times those unknowing few who clump the two together will say that these musical types are the same but nothing in the world could be further from the truth.

If you listen to goth music it is usually of the screaming and dark variety. Like their choice of clothing, gothic music is the type that is haunting, dark, and oftentimes profound. Emo music is centered around emotions, both positive and negative, and thus is very lyrical.
