the scene

So I was just urbaning up on some random stereotypes and I came upon scenester. The descriptions seemed pretty accurate but the pictures had me torn. At first I was thinking, "that's hardly scene, that's called emo...just needs some Dashboard Confessional and guys in their girlfriend's jeans," but then I realized, emo IS scenester. I mean, there's certainly a difference, but there isn't really such thing as a unique emo (for lack of a better noun). Stereotypical emo: all black, tight shredded jeans, hoodie, pin striped chuck taylors, and obnoxious hairstyles...and since they're basically trying to conform to that one sense of style then they're following that definition of scenester; "a person who tries very hard to fit the stereotype of a certain scene."


I heard about some band called Get Him Eat Him and they're coming out with a new cd by this summer called "arms down." I listened to some mp3s on their site (http://www.armsdown.com/) and they sounded pretty decent....no intense rock ballads but not at all Death Cab-esque, very cheery. Might check it out.
The band's website is actually:
