Could someone please explain to me what emo music is exactly, and explain the subculture that it has created? Do you think this says about the evolution of music and society?

there are some articles that answer that here, here, and here, and quite an interesting angle on your question here

(all found via this website.)

You might find this thread on Post-Punk useful as well.

I know there was an old emo thread around here somewhere, but I can't find it. I remember comments on a photo of an emo kid (I think the dude who runs the fourfa website) toting an automatic weapon.

I think of 'emo' as the contemporary diminution of the (vastly preferable, imo) 'complaint rock' description.
