ah, here. i`ll put them on here
for everyone else who doesn`t wanna look themselves;; [from urbandictionary] indie The term: Short for independent rock. In terms of music it would be independent of major labels/mainstream stuff. History: grew out from 60s garage, 70s punk, and 80s post punk it started in the mid 80s as alternative/college radio music. Once nirvana hit big the alternative genre split: the popular side was just alternative(Smashing Pumpkins, Hole, No Doubt, etc.) and the other half that wasn't mainstream(by choice or not) became indie rock(Pavement, Sebadoh, Built To Spill, etc). Some bands have signed to major labels but are still considered indie(Modest Mouse, etc.). Go figure. Sound: In the begining indie sounded like alternative(because it was) but it grew more experimental and weird. In Britain indie has more of a typical sound like Radiohead, Muse, etc. rather than a definition based on 'the scene.' The scene: if you really think all indie kids do is try to be cooler than other people then... well.. you're mostly right. The main point is, don't take the scene and the whole hipster attitude seriously. No one does. 1. scene typical "scene" girl: -choppy hair -usually black -septum ring -has a myspace with pictures of her from crazy angles with a TUFF face on because shes so hardxcore -goes to local shows all the time -belongs to a livejournal community called "cuntxcore" or "gungunbangbang" ; or "murderscene". because anything involving guns, or bang, or murder, or glamour, electric, shock, lust, or c**t, is cool in her book -often says things like "SUP NIGZ" or "KTHXBAI" or "I HATE YOU KDIE" or "IM COOLER THAN YOU K" or "SUP IM RAD" on their myspace profile -loves dinosaurs and robots and little girl bows and headbands because its just the way things are in the scene. dont ask them why all of them happen to find all of these things suddenly attractive, because they dont know themselves, its just what TOTALLY SCENExCORE people do. usually theyre just obnoxious bitches who put on this "scener than thou" attitude and hate everyone else, kthxbai lol. Hardcore A genre of music that started long ago from the punk movement. Eventually, it died down and now hardcore has become heavily confused with overrated untalented whiny-ass screamo/emo/trendXcore bands such as Atreyu, Norma Jean, and pretty much any other band worshipped by "scenesters" emo Emo was once a negative connotation on the new style of music created by such bands mentioned already (Fugazi, Rites of Spring, etc). Now it is an overly-hyped money making process, and has flooded the mainstream radio/tv stations. Trend following kids everywhere have adopted the "emo lifestyle" because it is the newest fad. |

The Emo ABC's
        I forgot where those pictures came from, but they made me laugh a little. They are pretty old pictures though so I wouldn't be suprised if a lot of people saw them before. |
