Guest assegai Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Quote A BIZARRE new Russian law hopes to make emo and goth music illegal in the eastern European country. It could signal the end of heavy eyeliner and black nail polish for the kids who love to bop about to the likes of MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE and THURSDAY. Legislation is currenting being drawn to regulate websites and ban emo and goth fashion in schools and government buildings. The new laws are being driven by overprotective fears the "dangerous teen trend" encourages depression and suicide. Critics have slammed the musical genre as a negative culture encouraging anti-social behaviour and glorifiying suicide. The weekend saw mass protests by Russian emo kids. DMITRY GILEVICH of Russian emo band MAIO said: "Expressing psychological emotions is not forbidden by law." http://www.thesun.co.uk//sol/homepage/show...icle1470943.ece Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44066-emo-music-to-be-made-illegal-in-russia/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

patternoverlap Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Didn't Emo start some riots in Mexico too? Am I missing something about it? In the states it's just a bunch of harmless little teens styling their hair and putting on makeup.
