Now the Daily Mail can no longer blame Goths for everything, they've switched targets.

The headline: Why no child is safe from the sinister cult of emo

Some choice quotes:

'emo' - part of a sinister teenage craze that romanticises death.

Some describe it as a cult or a sect[...]its followers dress in black, favouring tight jeans, T-shirts, studded belts and sneakers or skater shoes.

emo followers all over the world, talking about death and of the "black parade" — a place where emos believe they go after they die.

There always has to be a scapegoat, doesn't there?

I wonder which music genre is responsible for the teen knife killings.

The manics are acceptable now, so their lyrics can't be held responsible any more.

I guess everyone has forgotten the '4 real' incident.


The word is about, there's something evolving,
whatever may come, the world keeps revolving
They say the next big thing is here,
that the revolution's near,
but to me it seems quite clear
that it's all just a little bit of history repeating

The newspapers shout a new style is growing,
but it don't know if it's coming or going,
there is fashion, there is fad
some is good, some is bad
and the joke is rather sad,
that its all just a little bit of history repeating
