rites of spring never associated themselves with emo and actually discredited it, but its really how you take their music. trying to call out who was the godfather of emo is a pretty fuckin hard thing to do, but to some extent, this is pretty much where emo started up. rites of spring, still most definitely one of the greatest bands ever, emo or not.
This is called Emotive Post-Hardcore Punk during the time of Revolution Summer and it is not called emo, but Emocore and many bands like Rite of spring hated the term Emocore. I'm here because of my recommendations from youtube and I am happy that there was a video of Rites of spring playing End on end. Thanks.
even the sex pistols said "no" when somebody asked if their music was "punk"... so... rites are great band... and maybe they are not emo but.. it started up with this DC scene... i agree with you..
Jimmy, unfortunately I don't have any videos of Hated. I saw them several times and never got any footage of them. Dan was in a college class of mine, he's the most laid back, sincere guy you'd ever want to know.
Rites Of Spring will ALWAYS be associated with Emo as long as the term is still around. The name was first attributed to them so whether you like it or not, the two will never be separate. Plus Emo should be about the music not the fashion right? I don't see any eyeliner on Guy Picciotto.
Is this your original video or did you source it from somewhere else? I'm working on a short film about D.C. punk and would like to include a snippet from this video with your permission
ok, posted a REALLY bad copy of persistent vision for you cattellar. if you know the song well enough, you can follow along. i don't know of any other copies of them doing this song live. i never saw them do it live personally.
i saw them at the 9:30 in 1986, on my first night as a gwu freshman. love(d) them!

James, when they played this song live it was usually much longer than the album version from my recollection. Meghan
