You're from Birmingham and you come out with that?
Birmingham's scene's nothing like that. It's no higher form of 'emo' at all. Plus most of them haven't even gone through this 'emo' stage since it's become pioneered by 14 year old girls with not enough cleavage. So they haven't had the chance to cry and dye their hair black.
What you've just described is clearly a mislead 'emo' kid. Almost as bad as the 'emo'/'greeb' cross-overs I've seen on the canals. They're horrid.
