Putin joins the war on emo
http://www2.kerrang.com/2008/07/emo...ade_illega.html
And for those of you deviant metalheads who do not devoutly swallow every word uttered by Kerrang!:
http://www.moscowtimes.ru/article/1010/42/368995.htm
Of course, it's a backlash to Soviet times, shouldn't be too surprised if a ban on all metal music follows in a few years.
Of course, it smells like a discreet way of telling the nazi executioner patrols on the Russian streets that, go ahead with the cleansing.
Of course, Putin has a way in the world which only someone gaining huge sums of money by it could love.
Of course, it is a pretty damn transparent and ridiculous reason given, ban a certain style in order to make the wearers of said style stop committing suicides.
Still... a ban on emo...

While the concept of banning shitty music is pretty funny, and the ban will most likely not go through, if it did - it'd be a bad thing.
IN SOVIET RUSSIA, MUSIC BANS YOU!

I'm not at all sure of the odds there - after all, this isn't something new in Russia, it was just put on hold for a few years while they pretended to have a democracy. Sheit, I do not like the regime in Moscow anymore than the one in Bejing... and yet... a ban on emo...

Why ban emo music...Emo music is the best thing for natural selection, it helps weak kids to kill themselves, so we dont have to do it ourself!
Russia aint a smart country as i can see
If you like that quote, correct the grammar! otherwise, go fuck yourself!

They pretty much stole my idea. I figured when I conquered my first country, I would ban country and western music outright. I would have a special intelligence agency formed to seek out and destroy illegal, country music speakeasies... it would be awesome, a bunch of suburban douchebags wearing cowboy hats running for their lives in their cheap, leather boots, but their spurs catch on a tree stump and they fall down into a hail of gunfire, leaving nothing but bloodsoaked chaps to dry in the sun.
It shouldn't even be that hard to weed them out. Just drive around until you see a parking lot full of pickup trucks. If it isn't a construction site, it's country killing time.

Agree with admiral Ackbar there. This is bad.
As stupid as emo is, we all know when "book burnings" and "music bans" happen.
Besides, considering "goth" is put there.. and for the record, even "goths" cant agree what is goth music and what is not..
I'm pretty sure they will put any kind of loud / non-establishment music on there, and that will include metal.
Putin's Administration wants to go back to the Sovjet era. But without the communism.

Soviet had communism? Every day you learn something new.
Indeed. And we have them right next door. Like I also said right from the start, it's the old ban creeping back. Once again, Russian people wanting to listen to certain music will have to meet furtively in the night, always in the fear of being detected. We really are pretty well off, generally speaking, here in the West.

This will create musical whack-a-mole. "Genres" will diversify and suddenly we'll be facing a bizarre set of new terms, acronyms, and ridiculous teenagers which we'll all have to learn to hate anew. I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT.
In short, this is a terrible idea. Leave them all dressed up like a rag store off-cuts bin so we know who to giggle at, you dicks.

Cool, The Russians have alot yet to learn when giving free advertising and promotion(drawing attention towards, creating general interest and curiosity among the young, bored teenage masses)of some benign music trend.
This is the kind of stuff that made metal and hip-hop big $$$ for decades, there ain't nothing like a government you don't like telling you what music is cool by criminalizing it.

Being a hypocritical leader of a mock democracy doesn't by default mean you're swimming in an abundance of intelligence.
Problem in this case is that in Russia alternative people don't just get "oppressed" - they have a certain tendency towards getting shot. And this is the governmets way of saying go ahead. But my best guess would be that what we're looking at is a cross between puritan panic and a wish to distance the Russian people from the West.
