Teenage Angst- Search And Destroy

Message Bookmarked

The Smashing Pumpkins/Cypress Hill/Sonic Youth/Peter Frampton episode of the Simpsons was on over here a few days back, featuring Bart's valid claim that "Making teenagers depressed is like shooting fish in a barrel". But shooting fish in a barrel is quite good fun, isn't it? Any classics or crimes that intend to soundtrack moping in your bedroom during your A-levels you care to talk about?

Bonus points for subverting the phrase "You just don't understand!" within the context of a post.

No Judd it's YOU who doesn't understand! To YOU it might be 'shooting fish in a barrel' (which is CRUEL by the way) but when you're unpopular and stuff it's no party! And it's YOUR fault by the way, because you adults just don't care, you're RUINING the earth for us!!!! And I'm not MOPING by the way, I'm in my room to get away from YOU and YOUR generation! And to answer your question, I've got Metallica's "Fade to Black", NWA's "Fuck Tha Police" (you should see the fucking stormtroopers around here, I was just minding my own business smoking a joint which is WAY better for you than drinking by the way! and some SS-wannabe said, "Will you put that out please" - like the Burger King I was in at the time doesn't POISON more people than the weed ever will! - so I said "Ja Ja Mein Fuehrer!" I hope he went home and thought long and hard about that one and maybe reconsidered what he did for a living! That is, if he heard me, I didn't say it too loudly or anything like that), and my favorite, "Piggy" by Nine Inch Nails. "What am I supposed to do, I lost my shit BECAUSE OF YOU!!!!!!"

The only person that understands is Morrissey.

Except for the fact that my parents are not divorced, I'm not gay, I've never done drugs, and no one I know has ever OD'd, "Zen Arcade" is so totally MY LIFE, man.

DESTROY Linkin Park and all other "Nu Metal". Except for System Of A Down's self-titled album, which is actually quite good.

I want to count those songs from the Shangri-Las and the Spector stable, all about being too young to be in love and parents acting horribly and boyfriends dying. Let's think about Leader Of The Pack rather than Limp Bizkit, please!

What good is teenage angst music that teenagers don't listen to?
