Back to emo

It seems that freakytigger isn't the only one getting in a tizzy as to what all this emo nonsense is about. Popjustice newsletter points us here:

And here:

Unsurprisingly the Mail has the "better" moral panic headline...

edit for our overseas viewers, the young lady in the picture on the mail story is a character in Coronation Street, the UK's longest running soap opera, who went goth about 9 months ago, having been sent to a posh school by her pushy mother. she is totally not emo.

i've just had an ace/knuckle-gnawing memory surface of one time I came back home from college and my mum and (step) dad (at the time) told me "we saw you on late night review" - apparently they had done a (probly paul morley narrated) "this is indie-dance crossover kid" and it was so accurate i couldn't really complain :-)

KIDS - YOU ALL DRESS THE FUCKING SAME ADMIT IT. i know i did :-)
