Description
Of course, the majority of Goths are unique in their style and music preferences. However, within the subculture there are certain "types" of Goth with particular characteristics. And it can be fun to classify them. Naturally, classifications for each "type" vary from person to person, so you may disagree with what I say here!I had a lot of reservations about doing this type - I know that Goths seem to hate being associated with Emos, and vica versa. But because I've had so many comments mentioning Emos, I thought that it really had to be done.
Sorry that this has been a long time in coming, and that it's drawn even sloppier than usual... I've been revising for and doing my university final exams for the past month, and I've only just had a break...

Those bands you name aren't emo, just pop rock.
If you want to know and write about Emo, then read this website: [link]
Most emo's would push you over a cliff for saying that.

I have made reference to the fact that emo used to refer to the kind of music you're describing, but in 21st century usage, most people associate emo with the "pop rock" end of the genre.

Thank you for your repley.
Yea, a great deal of kids call them selves emo's and listen to those musicians. But it's a general misunderstanding that those bands are "emo" bands. I am trying to inform people of this, but it's very hard to break through.
MCR, FOB and such bands are often referd to Scenekids or Kitties. (I don't have any problems with them.)
Bands such as Embrace, Bright Eyes and Rites of Spring are emo bands.
If you want to help me inform kids about the true story, instead of them being confused by the media. Then please change the names.

I honestly hope you know that emo have nothing to do with gothic in any way. Emo's fashion re-appeared from the 80's style (indeed, if you didn't know this).
You probably well explained their clothing style but never put the word gothic with the word emo. Never. These two cultures are totally different and will never be connected, no matter what. Except if you talk about those fake goths claiming they are 'emo goth' which is totally impossible.
Anyway. Nice drawing in overall. Just shared my thoughts about this to clear things up.

Indie emo=good. Goth emo=bad. I think of it as this... emo is good trendy fashion. Goth is just good fashion (usually. Let's not inspect individual wardrobes). Emo tude? Fucking annoying!!! It's like the dark indulgence of goth minus ALL the intelligence. Love emo music, for the most part, HATE all those fucking kids!!! (Wow.... your work is very therapeutic for me XD)

THANK YOU!
Finally someone who understands that emos will never have that gothic ending to their 'title'! Gothic emos will never exist! >< Thank you sir! (or girl)

girl it is... xD
well emo just IS NOT goth...though...
people started calling me emo at school somewhen the last few months...i have the feeling...they dont really know goths still exist oo
everything black is 'emo' now... T^T
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, why?
Because it's a new trend, something completely popular to those 13 years-old teenagers. So since it's popular, people puts them in one same basket; they wear black, it's emo. Meh.

omg emo has really become the new normal where i live u could say. just about everyone is considered "emo" or an "emo poseur" at my school now. and i am constantly labeled emo, and i mean constantly and it just gets so annoying. this word has realllllly got out of control.
-- oh and nice work! love it! hate "emos", but i love this piece!
luvvvvvvvv your work
^^ i just cant get enuffff

I feel sorry for emos... they get so much stick from everyone...
Thank you very much!

I'm probably very annoying by times now (LOL) but emos from nowadays deserve it with their attitude (most of them). 'I hate the world, I hate myself, I hate my life, I'm emo-goth...' This is probably why they're so disliked around the world right now. These 13 years old kids try to connect gothic and emos culture which is... unthinkable in any possible ways!
But don't gte me wrong; I'm tired to see people bashing emos in this way: ''You're a fucking emo! Go cut yourself...!'' Hate this.

I must say that i cant stand emo goths or EMO'S in general they r fusing with goth culture to a point that is TO FAR!
but your observations are quite convincing KUDOS!
π: 0 β©: 1
Sounds like me, lol.
But why is everyone getting worked up about this?
Emo and Goth are just ways of dressing, and genres of music!
...
Oh, and awesome series. :]

I know, people do get very worked up about what is "Emo" and what is "Goth." I suppose people are quite protective of their subculture, and will jealously defend it from "competing" cultures.
Thanks!

I'd say this one was funny if it weren't for the comment about the Rasmus. They're hardly emo. >|
π: 0 β©: 1
But these are Emo Goths, not pure emos. And in my experience it seems that lots of people who like both emo and goth like the Rasmus.

Oh, wow, this describes, like 50% of my town's fashion style.
but most ppl here call it "hardcore" lol

Oh, really?! well... I woulda been 10... so that explains how I don't know of it
π: 0 β©: 0
Actually, I remember about 7 years ago when "emo" punk was often called "hardcore," so I can understand where that comes from.

I have nothing against Emos, I just hate it when people lump Emo and Goth together. But I do see your point, there are many who are a mix of the two.
I love Tim Burton films myself ^_^ but I don't wear emo fashion or particularly listen to emo music other than MCR (even then i prefer 'Three Cheers...' to 'The Black Parade.'

dont have anything aginst emo but this is really cool and i liked it alot

Even though I don't really agree with you on this one, as I believe emos are the bastard cousins of goths I still think your drawing/discriptions are wonderfull!!! XD
π: 0 β©: 1
I love your series of the goths, but I really hate these friggin emos already, they invade every subculture and then they cry because their mommy won't buy the an mcr shirt at the mall. But you did a wonderful job on these and I can't wait to see the rest.
