This week's Junk Poll: Who's the Real McCoy for female-fronted emo rock?
Flyleaf
We've noticed a lot of copycats in the music scene. But it's inevitable; who wouldn't jump on the bandwagon of something big if it was the current cool thing to do or for the fact that it would make the artist tons of money and fame.
Emo rock is in. So is female-fronted emo rock groups apparently–there have been tons sprouting out from nowhere and tons more breaking through to the mainstream. Hey Monday, for example, have recently been signed onto Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz's Decaydance label. You can be sure they will be the next big thing since Paramore.
So who's the Real McCoy then? Out of the sea of emo rockers, who's the king of all kings when it comes to female-fronted emo rock groups? We narrow down five bands and ask you to vote for the one that you think is the true emo rock ambassador for this category:
Flyleaf
Fireflight
Hey Monday
Paramore
Automatic Loveletter
In our previous poll we asked you to vote for your favourite actor-turned-singer, and Juliette Lewis was your favourite! She led by a whopping 82% while Jared Leto and the rest trailed off far behind. Results here!
Juliette Lewis = 82%
Jared Leto = 6%
Zooey Deschanel = 5%
Hilary Duff = 4%
Scarlett Johansson = 2%
Lindsay Lohan = 1%
i don't think any of them can be labeled as the "it" girl for that genre. no one ever can. i love them all, but i think paramore has the most talent. hayley is phenominal. lacey from flyleaf is amazing too. they all are. but my vote is with hayley.
I'd say narrow it down to Paramore, Hey Monday, and Flyleaf. I've never even heard of the other two. But Paramore gets my vote for the best. FEMALE ROCKERS ARE NOT POSERS!
#1 paramore
#2 flyleaf
end.. lol.. both of them were best emo rock bands with a front-lady.. lol.. but paramore do beats flyleaf way far
Skunk Anansie!
hayley williams is a mosquito la. damn annoying. she should be swatted and replaced by celine dion's 5 year old daughter.
Flyleaf's vocals are so computerized they make me want to die.
and The Automatic Loveletter is just.. obnoxious.
I saw Paramore live and let me tell you - Hayley William's vocals are for real. The entire band was even better live.
As for the other two, Hey Monday and Fireflight, they weren't even musically intriguing. it's like reading the dictionary in monotone, except a girl is reading it instead.
Paramore FTW.
there is also another female-fronted band called VersaEmerge. you guys might wanna check them out.
Lord, black market organ traders would not even want to buy your brain. Go to your rich daddy and ask him to get you a new brain!
Those are results from the previous poll, duh!
Juliette Lewis = 82%
Jared Leto = 6%
Zooey Deschanel = 5%
Hilary Duff = 4%
Scarlett Johansson = 2%
Lindsay Lohan = 1%
Aren't those women a tad too old for Emo?
I thought the max age for Emo band members was 12.
