ive got many issues with that goddamn article. but ill only deal with one for now because im tired. i dont know what the fuck he was trying to do, but it sounded like he was trying to explain "emo" that may sound stupid (like the whole cliche "you can't put it into words, man, you gotta listen, you gotta feel." thing) but there is a difference in explaining it, and getting every fucking singer from ever goddamn band to tell us what bands are emo! they dont know any better than he does, if you think about it. i mean, if you were caled "peask" by people. and a bunch of your friends were called "peasks" too, you wouldnt be able to tell me what the fuck it meant, why they were calling you that. i dont know if i make any sense- it just seems to me that he just shoulda listened to it, talked to some guys, quoted less, and give us his goddamn opinion. regards, brian ps- its scary about that whole company making an emo compilation, isnt it? shee-it, i'd cry if i saw a comercial for it on tv- "and now, the essential mix for anyone's CD collection "Emo Party"! its got great songs by bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral, and even Radiohead"... and then, like in the disco one (with the afro-having black guy dancing in front of the band's videos) there is a skinny white boy with a sweater and horn-rimmed glasses crying. ha ha ha. i'd probably cry, or start an emo band and jump on the bandwagon and make a little money doing it.
