but what is INDIE ROCK? is it really INDIE when everyone is doing it?

genres suck.

*Like there are only about 10 people i can think of who even listen to the real stuff and appreciate it.*

if general, if there are only 10 people out of 4 million that regard that particular definition as 'emo' and the rest hold some other definition, then what really is the purpose of using the same word? and which defintion whould hold sway? Just curious. seems to tie in with Brad's little mini-essay on the 'goth' word.

yeah... well exactally.. For all means embrace the bastard that is the english language...new emo is basically skate punk with strings...

[moliere777]

nu-emo. haha. i just make fun of the fringes.

[drumsofdoooooom]

yeah, that was kinda the point i was getting at with that essay. if i get everyone to call me bob instead of brad, then for all intents and purposes i am now bob.
