I was in a mall for just a couple of hours a few weeks back and thought it was really alarming (for me at least) to see so many kids wearing "my chemical romance" t-shirts, with hair like they're Tony Hadley on a bad day. Emo's all the rave right now and I'm not even sure how a "movement" with only a handful of artists as torchbearers could be considered a viable art form.
And what really boils my blood is how they make references to goths when these people haven't even heard of Bauhaus or Siouxsie Sioux. All they care about is the fashion, and they do it with such bad taste. Emo does give goth a bad name.
It's irritating that I cannot paint my nails black anymore like I used to in fear of being associated with emo. So for now I shall clip my wings and hide back in my little old shell because the posers are in flight!
