Emo-Corner.com - Calling All Shaggy Haired Emo Kids

Jet black hair, often highlighted with streaks of brighter colors, depressed, melancholic demeanor, taken to moping and writing angst filled poetry—if this describes you than your probably an Emo kid, and thus EmoCorner is a site just for you. EmoCorner also gives non-emo initiates a primer about what the whole Emo movement is about: punk with emotion, expressing one’s self, boys kissing boys because they can, poetry, music, thrifting, and shaggy hairstyles. You’ll find pictures of emo girls and boys, of boys kissing boys, of hairstyles and of fashion. The site also has poems galore along with a set of emo-inspired quotes. Emo kids can check out Myspace (according to the site, more than 45% of Myspace users are emo) graphics, backgrounds and layouts, they can get some emotional icons, and watch some videos or participate in the forums.

“Emo-Corner.com was created to help explain what emo is. We have grown a lot since first appearing on the web. Emo Corner has turned into an emo culture community. Our community consists of a very large photo gallery and an active message board. Joining our community is absolutely free.

Emo-Corner gives non emo kids a good idea about what the whole scene is about. It describes the motivations, the styles, the way emo kids interact. The site also provides emo kids a free and open space where they can be themselves and discuss all things emo.

While this site does a good job explaining emo, it seems that those already interested in emo won’t find much to keep them busy. EmoCorner seems to cater more to those wondering about emo than emo kids themselves. Seems more like a slap dash Myspace page than a real community.
