Screamo

Screamo is a musical genre that developed out of emo, more specifically hardcore emo, in the early 1990s. Characteristic of the genre are the screaming vocals (not growling). Other than that, it is fairly hard to classify (particularly since the rule about screaming vocals is bent fairly often). It is sometimes also mistakenly referred to as "emo violence", which is closely related (although bands in both genres borrow ideas from each other). The term has been co-opted by some mainstream publications to describe bands such as Underoath, Hawthorne Heights, Thrice, Thursday, and Taking Back Sunday.
