The Emo Chromosome
If these radio personnel really knew anything about the music they seem to think they do, they would know what emo really is. I acknowledge what the stereotypes have turned into. However, the difference between the image of it that this radio station is promoting as correct and the original meaning of emoTIVE hardcore that was an offshoot of the seattle hardcore punk scene would be entirely laughable were it not for how redundant it's become. Also, encouraging hate and elitism in music is how we are encouraging these kids that think they don't fit in anywhere. Furthermore, All bands complain. Music comes from the honesty of strong emotion. So they bands they deem good enough, are whining too. and personally, i'd rather listen to high school students who never felt right with the world than little children in africa singing about how they don't have any food. maybe that's just me. Not that i think that the problems in third world countries aren't relevant, but it's either Mika or kids singing about world problems if you exclude all lyrics that they seem to be trying to. and personally, one Mika is enough. and zero U2s are enough. I also think it's a sad world when people are getting their idea of good and bad music from the radio.— April 25, 2008 10:10 p.m.
