My guess is that emo could be short for "emotional" in your sentence:

"having and expressing strong feelings"

or it could also mean the following (from the Urban dictionary):

Urban Dictionary: emo

Perhaps it combines the two - "having and expressing strong feelings", but in a way typical of the musical genre.

Incidentally, '"inaudible guitar rifts" in that Urban Dictionary link has a typo; the disjointedness of a rift is quite appropriate, but I think they mean 'inaudible guitar riffs'.

Meaning you'd develop a sudden craving for cole slaw...?




In this case, I think the Urban Dictionary more or less correct. Emo is both a style of music as well as a genre of fashion. More from Wiki.
