emo kids

Emo become a bit of a fad for kids who want to "stick out" but aren't really different in any way. That's why they can't pull of goth. It's really kind of pathetic to see them showing off their wrist scars that they put there because its part of the fad. Then the kids with real issues get screwed even further because emos are generally looked down on, so the kid with real issues gets a bad rap on top of everything else. Emo's, I've found from experience, are fairly self involved and think they are gods, which really doesn't fit in with the whole idea of emo, thus leading to part of why they are thought of as posers. That article on wiki is right in some parts, but totally off in others. Main stream music is bad according to emo's...bands like "Atreyu" and "Coheed and Cambria" are popular among them. Of course this is the majority of emo kids...a few I know are actually pretty cool, and even some are actually "emo"...but the majority are annoying posers.

On the whole, mainstream music is pretty bad, but it does not take an emo kid to see that. Atreyu and Coheed suck as well. It is absolutely retarded to swear off bad music, then replace it with worse. I would probably rather listen to the latest Gwen Stefani abhorrence than some screamo bullshit.

I think I like punks, goth kids and hippies better than this new whiny trend.

I completely agree, although I still hate punks, goths, and obnoxious neo-hippies.

latest gwen stef song on radio = utter trash

too bad after "hollaback girl", which at least had a good beat.
 
There are always depressed teenagers. The emo and goth thing is just a fashionable way to express it (in their eyes). It's usually just a phase.

Emos now get the scorn that goths used to get. There is a style of music called gothcore which is a goth and emo.

Anyway I like some emo bands.
