| Has anyone else noticed that ever since Spin has hired Andy Greenwald, author of "Nothing Feels Good: Punk Rock, Teenagers, and Emo," as a contributing writer that they have a newfound fervor... | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| ...almost obsession with emo? For example, Chris Carabba had a cover this year, there are six emo albums in the year's top forty, and there are countless articles about unproven bands like Brand New. | |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | |
| Furthermore, what exactly are they pushing it for? Isn't emo's appeal based on its small community? Is there a 300,000 album ceiling for emo bands or will they ever sit with Beyonce on kids' iPods? | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| This is a little esoteric for the comic isn't it? Is this just a garden variety observation or is there a punchline to any of this prattle? | |
| | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | |
| Oh, there's more than a punchline. Bitchass. | |
