death of the squad

[Tsumetai]

you're obnoxious and think excessively highly of yourself

Nah, I know I'm as big of a douche as anyone else. Still doesn't change the fact Jeem whines too much and is clearly delusional.

[Vykromond]

You're annoying.

[Jason]

But I still think the Ataris are awesome.

brothas and sistahs, can i get an ayyyyyyyyyy-men?!

[Jerome Scuggs]

Look, can't we hipsters just hand emo over, seriously? Rites of Spring? Emo? NO! They are a weird band nobody listens to. Fall Out Boy is emo. The Ataris are emo. Let's stop confusing everybody.

edit: I'm not joking. The point is, emo people and people who listen to emo music are the same, because emo music is crap pop punk where people whine about girlfriends, and people who listen to that shit are lame as fuck. I know when I listened to The Ataris I was lame as fuck. Lasssssssssst Night I Had A Dream WHERE WE WENT TO DISNEYLAND well that song is still kinda good

I think the problem is unlike pretty much every genre until the 80's, "emo" didn't have a wide, national, public following - it was mostly an offshoot of an already very small community, the DC hardcore scene. That was like, the Rites of Spring, Hoover, Moss Icon, and maybe Embrace. When it was dragged kicking and screaming into the limelight by a combination of hipsters looking for new music to namedrop and corporations looking for more fodder for their exploitation machines, that's when emo became codified into what most people think of it now, which is pop punk.

But I still think the Ataris are awesome.

i dunno, as fervently as i hold this belief, you have to admit that emo has become a lifestyle.

i'm not saying they are the same thing, in fact i bet "emo kids" and people who listen to "emo music" probably actually have very little in common, musically

jeem is a star you fools gl with everything man.

[Zerzera]

I agree with cmx. But I took a different approach.


and the song you sing today wasn't always in your head
the words you try to say are the ones you should've said
they're glistening like diamonds, go out and find them, but don't blame your daughter

[Tsumetai]

This thread needs to go in a new direction.

XD

[PH]

This thread needs to go in a new direction.

[Tsumetai]

Well he threw a tantrum quite quickly. And by emo, I mean you're a whiny little cunt, not just that you're emotional. Good riddance.
