The definitive handbook for the popular form of confessional punk rock known as emo. From fashion to ideology, music to movies, eating habits to adulthood, its all covered here with razor-sharp wit. 100 b/w illustrations. n nWhat is emo? For starters its a form of melodic, confessional, or EMOtional punk rock. But emo is more than a genre of music-its the defining counterculture movement of the 00s. EVERYBODY HURTS is a reference book for emo, tracing its angsty roots all the way from Shakespeare to Holden Caufield to todays most popular bands. n n Theres nothing new about that perfect chocolate and peanut butter combination--teenagers and angst. What is new is that emo is the first cultural movement born on the internet. With the development of early social networking sites like Make Out Club (whose mission is to unite like-minded nerds, loners, indie rockers, record collectors, video gamers, hardcore kids, and artists through friendship, music, and sometimes even love) outcast teens had a place to find each other and share their pain, their opinions, and above all, their music-which wasnt available for sale at the local record store.n n Authors Leslie Simon and Trevor Kelley lead the reader through the world of emo including its ideology, music, and fashion, as well as its influences on film, television, and literature. With a healthy dose of snark and sarcasm, EVERYBODY HURTS uses diagrams, illustrations, timelines, and step-by-step instructions to help the reader successfully achieve the ultimate emo lifestyle. Or, alternately, teach him to spot an emo kid across the mall in order to mock him mercilessly.n
