Didn't see the Dublin gig, but I was at their Shepherds Bush gig last Thursday, and the crowd went nuts then as well. I'm glad to see they're as funny onstage as they are on their website!

nah, the album is really good after a few listens. Total house party music. More grunge than emo.

EMOTIONAL ROCK dude
introspective lyrics with heavy guitars, an indie version of American punk, I suppose. It's generally an East Coast genre. Stuff like Fugazi is a big influence, and other post punk like Mission of Burma. It kind of became widespread in the mid-90s with Jimmy Eat World, but it's one of those genres that keeps changing, and is quite hard to categorise.
Perhaps best done by Taking Back Sunday, Coheed and Cambria (prog emo), Funeral For A Friend, Fall Out Boy, Alexisonfire (screamo)
Now it has kind of become almost insulting as in "they're a bit too emo for me"
often characterised by skinny boys, fringey haircuts, ironic tatoos. Seth Cohen in the OC is preppy emo

not quite, but you're getting there.
Emo is an often slagged genre, but it's also a very progressive and experimental one. Alexisonfire are excellent, and Coheed and Cambria are probably as off the wall and musically fantastic as At The Drive In. They've practically created their own mythology.
If you're looking for a catch-all taste of it, essential emo tracks for me are:
Brand New: Me V Madonna V Elvis
Taking Back Sunday: 180 By Summer
Death Cab For Cutie: The New Year
Alexisonfire: .44 Calibre Love Letter Straight From My Heart
Coheed And Cambria: Devil In Jersey City
Funeral For A Friend: Streetcar
My Chemical Romance: I'm Not OK (I Promise)
