Fox 11 News Special Investigation- The EMO Scene

[Eohmer]

So I was watching the news last night, and they did a special investigation on the Emo scene... >.<

-----

Los Angeles -- The 'emo' scene has its roots in the punk rock and goth subcultures. You've seen the kids; you just didn't know they had a name. As Leelila Strogov explains, the scene has been re-shaping kid culture for some time.

Yeah, when you want music that relates to your personal experience, you listen to millionaire boybands organized by record company executives in a high rise.


Shut the fuck up you brats, if you want music to relate to, go to a local club and listen to a poor jazz musician who can barely make enough to feed his kids, let alone himself. Don't forget to tip.

Just remember, Fox news (well, all news actually) is mostly there to inform the older generations who don't get the interweb

This is a local news station, not Fox News.

That was the DEFINITION of a slow news day.

It's L.A. there are probably twelve reports of murder or scandal that could have filled a space about Emo kids.

I live here... murder is WAY too common now that it isn't even news anymore.

Muahahaha! :D

unless of course it's a spree shooting, in which case everybody panics, even though they're more likely to die taking their shower in the morning than they are to be murdered by them.

How many emo kids does it take to change a light bulb?

Screw it... let them cry in the dark.

ha, "its social movement".
More like just a temporary shift in the mainstream?

Re: Fox 11 News Special Investigation- The EMO Scene

As a man I must stifle all emotion and deny that it exists within me. These kids break the rules of manhood and attempt to garner both pity and praise for their common, every-day experiences. We've all had the downs, the bad days, and the terrible months on end, but we're men and we internalize it all.

To be serious for a second, emotion in music isn't anything new. I think it's been the driving force for... what, say... thousands of years? I think it's the lengths they go to that speak more towards the sake of gaining attention rather than the art.

If art imitates life why are they changing their lifestyles for the art?

Re: Fox 11 News Special Investigation- The EMO Scene

They're not doing it for the art, they're doing it to fit in, of course.

This makes me want to start a thread...
