How can The Rasmus and Mayday Parade be considered as emo?

Which part of their lyric shows that they are emo?

I also heard that the genre emo has died a long time ago so how could they be emo?

If you ask me who says that they're emo, i heard it from some people here and another website too.

Thanks for your answer.

No hate comments please.

    Yeah the genre Emotive Hardcore(emo) died in the late 90's.

    People just label any band "emo" cause of their image & not what is in their lyrics which is so stupid. If a band wears black or even a little bit of eyeliner then they're put into the "emo category"

    Take Green Day for example, Billie wears eyeliner & black clothes so they're lumped in the "emo category" yet the music they play isn't depressing at all.

    It's just pure ignorance, just ignore it. That's what I do :)
