Goodbye subcultures, hello fakecultures.

Geram doh.

I think if I ever get to rule my own universe, I will make everybody naked. I won't invent clothes. I People will have to go moshing and to gigs without clothes. Maybe then, they won't find things to laugh and insult, or try to show off.

So we're at the point where we have a lot of sprouting genres, some that don't even make sense, some that sounds the same as another but a twang of the guitar makes it different. This also means we're at the peak of where all the old, forgotten subcultures, are mushed with new, or resurrected to life. We look around gigs and perhaps we can see at least 5 different kinds of 'goth's, 3 different kinds of 'nu wave', and then you get the hip-hoppers, and whatnot. What happened to humans?

Straight Edge

What is with the sudden uprise about this long discovered genre? It's kind of funny for the Malaysian giggers trying so hard to be this, when the majority of them smoke like a chimney and can't live without meat, have hidden sex parties around town. LOL. Enough said.

EMO

It's a genre, not a style.

Terima kasih.

...

Even simple ones like hardcore genre and gigs, you find people who try to so hard to fit into the particular genre, to stand out, that you completely forget about the one important thing; the music. It is like they are selling the names of bands to prove their knowledge, and they hardly even listen to the band itself. It is like people are starting to put across this image of a huge music fan, just to gain some status. Come on guys, are you serious?

Worst thing is, you'd start dissing others about their subculture, and whatnot. You guys diss the people who actually, truly follow a subculture, like memang kaw2 pakai pakaian thats 100% and listen to music 100% that influences their subculture. Tapi they are the ones that kena dissed. Just because they are brave enough to go to the ultimate extremes? Uh, not cool.

At least they're living it real, not like you fakecultural people who SAY you're something, but just do it half-heartedly with intentions for attention.

Dah memang, kadang bab fesyen bergaya mesti di tegurnya oleh audience, x kesah yang muda yang tua, yg lama yang old lama punya, baru pown ada. Andai kata bloger ni kejap dres hardcore atau indie atau punker? Hm.. Bukan di poseur. So, sume skg ni memg judgemental. Andai kata PM pakai hardcore, mungkin 1 malaya pakai turut sama mcm bloger ckp,naked time m0sh. Uh! Aneh dowh. Pehal dowh. Kesimpulannya bg subculture, di malaysia mungkin ada sedikit kematangan jauh tertingal daripada di luar scene sana tuh. Pasal fakeculture, huh. X mungkin ada quote ni dalam kamus nanti. Haha. Inilah dunia fana... Penuh dgn fakers.
