1. Emo
Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle.
::sniff sniff:: "The Demise of the Siberian Traintracks of Our Rusty Forgotten Unblemished Love" sounds like it would make a great emo band name. ::cry::

2. Emo
Punk music on estrogen. Often acoustic guitar with soft, high male vocals that dwell exessively on the singer's feelings, especially melancholy remembrances of past relationships/mistakes in life. A form of music that diverged from punk in the '80s, the name "emo" is derived from the emotive style of the lyrics and music. This genre has lately been marketed heavily by the music industry to teenagers with bands such as Dashboard Confessional and Taking Back Sunday, and has seen much commercial and mainstream success. The music has also spawned a subculture which conforms to certain conventions in dress such as tight sweatshirts, tight band T-shirts and horn-rim glasses. Adherents profess to exessively melancholy temperments. Males that adhere to the emo subculture are sometimes confused with metrosexuals; indeed the line between the two is somwhat blurred, though both groups claim to be intouch with their emotional side. The ephemeral and hackneyed nature of emo songwriting suggests that its audience will be restricted largely to teenagers. the genre suffers from a lack of credibility outside the aforementioned demographic group, much like current Nu Metal bands.
girlfriend: C'mon, lets have sex.
boyfriend: I'm too sad to have sex.
girlfriend: I'm sad too; lets have sex and cry.
boyfriend: I'm already crying.

1. Punk
Punk is basically thinking what you like, doing wot you like, doing it when you like, and not caring about very much at all. Just because you are a punk doesnt mean you cant listen to other genres of music and/or hang with people that arent punks nor does this make you suddenly less of a punk. All these wankers that have some kind of idea that if you like Blink 182 youre not a punk are wrong. Punk music itself has a lot of sub-genres, pop-punk being one of them. The music tends to be very fast, sometimes repetitive (thats the shit bands) and the lyrics are often very offensive. The dress for this group of people is do whatever you fucking well like. Punks also often get mistaken for greebos (pikies if you come from suffolk) yes thats right we dont want to kill ourselves or kill everyone around us we just disagree with them.
Punk: Hi, I couldnt give a flying fuck what you think of me, and i have a strong political opinion.

2. punk
TRUE: louder, faster form of rock and roll, often antiestablishment
FALSE: fast, tonedeaf pop-rock, often about relationships
TRUE: The Ramones
FALSE: Blink 182

(this def. is correct)
1. goth
Goths were one of the numerous barbarian tribes, which invaded the crumbling Roman Empire at the end of the fourth century. Originally a minor scandinavian people, they migrated to what is now northern Poland during the first century BC. Having submitted locals, they settled there for roughly a century. During the second century, they resumed their march southward, crossing what is now Poland, and Ukraine. They finally reached the shores of the Black Sea, coming into contact with the Romans, they wrestled present days Romania from. There, they created a large multiethnic empire, which waged several wars against Romans. This Empire was however destroyed by the Huns around 370

They would kick the ass of any worthless teenager with unnatural black hair and nails.

2. goth
Goth is an alternative subculture; it is both a style of music and a fashion, like Punk. People who listen to the music don't necessarily dress in the style, and people who look like goths don't necessarily like the music either - a lot of metal fans have adopted the goth look, making for a great deal of confusion.
However, on the rare occasion that someone looks like a goth and likes goth music, chances are they're actually a goth.
Some fake "goths" are only gothic to scare their conservative parents. They like the shock value of black and the white make up. They like being noticed as a goth and hang out with their "gothic" marylin manson loving friends who hate everybody except "goths" until someone questions their gothicness. Then they hate you and threaten to cast a hex on you even though they aren't learned in the art of wicca and just want to scare you. The mean goths who have no friends are often the fake people who believe gothic culture revolves around marylin manson, hatred, death and black. These "goths" like evanecence, linkin park and some other rock bands of the month.
Goths are really nice people except the fakeies they blow up situations and cut themselves even though there is nothing to be depressed about.
The name originally came from a Germanic tribe (ie the Goths). The Romans regarded them as barbaric and uncultured, much like the Vandals. "Gothic" was later applied to a style of medieval architecture by critics who regarded it as similarly barbaric and uncultured (something similar happened with the term "Vandal"). The term was later applied to a late 18th/early 19th century style of literature which had a fascination with death and the supernatural.
The term "Gothic" was first applied to the music which is now considered "goth" in about 1979- see the name page for details.

Later on, the term "Goths" or "Gothic Punks" was applied to fans of the music, particularly those that had the gothic look.
The early goths looked similar to punks, except that the predominant colours were black for hair & clothing (with the occasional outburst of white, red or purple) and silver for jewellery. Thus they had ripped clothing, and even mohicans, though the "Goth Mohican" was usually black and much wider than the punk version (shaved at the sides only). They also tended to spout a lot of fishnet (more usually on the arms for men) and had a distinctive style of makeup, with very white faces and lots of black eyeliner (for both men and women). Hair was usually dyed black, crimped and backcombed.
At first the hair was usually fairly short for men, backcombed up, but by the mid-to-late eighties long black hair became fashionable and it's now more usual to see hair long & down than shaved at the sides & spiked up. Makeup remains an integral part of the look, but clothing has diversified so that some now wear clothes influenced by 18th or early 19th century styles whilst others wear PVC, leather & fishnet. (crushed velvet tends to be another goth favourite). And some of them wear both, though not usually at the same time. Black and white remain the predominant colours, with red or purple still making an appearance. Distinctive fabrics tend to be silk, crushed velvet, leather & PVC.
The first goth music grew out of punk, and some of the early bands were very lively, characterised by tribal drumming. Things changed in the mid-eighties, mainly due to the rise of the Sisters of Mercy, probably the most well-known goth band. The Sisters were characterised by deep vocals, simple yet prominent basslines, and simple drum machine rhythms. Unfortunately they came to typify the "Goth Sound" and too many later bands followed their example.
Later on, there was some crossover with the Industrial scene, and a lot of bands now use electronic sounds as well as the archetypal guitar/bass/drum machine/vocals.

In the late 90s, "cybergoth" became very popular, essentially a mix of goth-style vocals with a dancey backing. Whether this is a subgenre of goth, a subgenre of industrial, or a mixture of both is a vexed question, but overall the scene seems to lean more towards the industrial side of things.
There is also a fair bit of "ambient" goth, characterised by subtle instrumentation and haunting female vocals.
Lyrically, goth tends to be on the doomy side- dark lyrics and a doomy sound are fairly typical of most (but not all) goth these days.
My friend is a goth she was into wicca and the dress style but not the music.She dosen't talk to me anymoe coz I'm not goth enough for her. She hates my group of friends because one day one person told her she was sitting in her spot. That's when she left the group. I knew a girl who was into the whole shebang. She is really nice not depressing and mean (as goths are steryotyped as).

1. poseur
Poseur is the correct version of the more common "poser". The term is used for 2 reasons-

A) As an insult, used by one who is insecure and attempts to enhance their image by making people believe they have the authority to call someone else a poseur,

or

B) One who groups him or her self in a particular social clique in order to appear trendy or "edgy" but doesn't believe in the principals held by said clique and is only leeching onto it in order to avoid the social ridicule of not being part of a clique. A poseur will probably change their "style" once every 6 months, possibly more.

The common thread is insecurity- the insecurity to be yourself and be happy with it. Poseurs are the kinds of people who only appear "cool" to people who are just as insecure as they are. But no one ever found success lying to themselves for acceptance.
"Those mall punks are such poseurs, they have anarchy signs written all over their All-Stars, but nota single one of the retarded 8 year olds knows what it is, or that the sweatshopped armbands they all bought at Hot Topic support the system they claim to be rebelling against. Now lets go home and listen to some Yellowcard and cry so we can be hardcore," says the pussy emo kid with the rich parents and cute girlfriend, who has nothing to complain about, before I punch him.

2. poseur
the definition of poseur is
1- a fake person
2- a person who acts like something theyre not
3- a person who calls other people poseurs
4- a person who calls other people poseurs just to make themselves feel better
5- a person who thinks everyone else is a poseur
6- a person who is insecure with themselves so they put on a show
7- a person looking on this site to make sure they are not a poseur
1- "that girl is such a poseur because she shops at hot topic"
2- "man your such a poseur because you like bands from good charlotte to slipknot, and those are poseurbands"

1. prep
Noun (Prep): Comes from identifiying one who goes to a prepratory or "prep" school (typically on the East Coast), or a school with the intent of preparing its students for college (often Ivy League).
Has come to be an label for those who conform to typical teenage behavior, in areas like clothing, school behavior, and sports participation, because preps usually are more ambitious and/or image-conscious than others.
Popular belief is that preps hate nerds/goths/punks/etc, however, generally, preps pay little attention to other "types," and those who hate preps with the most passion are those who were once preps and have recently gone away from their previous behavior, and often people who are posers intent on protecting their alternative-ness.
Prep has become to be nearly synonymous with conformist, to the point where most preps have been in denial of their typecast, and it is seen as an insult in the eyes of many.
Preppy is the adjective form, Preppily is the adverb.
The prep dreamed of going to a school that wasn't too far from where her quarterback boyfriend got a scholarship.
Bob wouldn't talk to Annie; He thought her interest in MTV and popular culture made her too preppy.
Tiffany started dressing very preppily over the summer, shedding her all-black dress code for the latest styles.

Also spend way too much on makeup like Bobbi Brown when they can look just as skanky with Mabelline
