Were Quicksand proto-emo? Post-hardcore? Meh, who cares: these dudes rocked, and that is about it.
I have no reason for posting this video for “Fazer”, other than I listened to Slip yesterday and remembered how much I love that album. I didn’t discover the band until much later (hey, I was ten when Slip came out!), but I can tell you that even in 2001 they still pretty much owned everyone around.
Warning: Do NOT read the YouTube comments for this video. Watching anonymous people discuss the validity and definition of emo is enough to leave anyone (especially me) in the corner crying in the fetal position.
I'm not ashamed to say that I remember when emo wasn't a dirty word.
My favorite YouTube comment:
These dudes aren't emo at all right?? I like the sound!! but in the netherlands a few people said Quicksand was a emoband.. Don't thinks so:O
