First off: tommy, there's no point you being here, so leave now.
Okay, everyone. I'm currently forming a fake myspace band called Darkness Shines on my Broken Heart (http://www.myspace.com/darknessshinesonmybrokenheart) but the problem is, nobody I know can pull off a convincing metal/emo look, which is where you guys come in!
What I need is people to post pictures of themselves looking metal/emo that I can use on the band's myspace.
On a side note: if anyone wants to join the band and write awful songs (or maybe even record yourself playing some of the songs) that'd be great. And please add us to your myspace friends so we can have loads of friends and look cool!
here's our first song if you're wondering what we're like:
vending ma-chine"
you're like a vending machine
rejecting me
i gave you my heart
but you gave it back
like a coin
'cause your a vending ma
chine, vending ma
chine
but when you take my coins
and begin to work
your love is caught on the coil
on the last string of the abyss
i'm packing my suitcases full
of love for you
but when people say my name
you just say "who?"
my happiness is like a tree
lumberjacked by your spite
'cause you reject my love
'cause your a vending ma
chine, vending ma
chine
vending
you're like a vending machine
rejecting me
i gave you my heart
but you gave it back
like a coin
'cause your a vending ma
chine, vending ma
chine
vending ma
chine

Actually, today I realised there are no metal or de-pop kids at my college, only the peculiar hybrid breed.
I don't know what it means, but here are the two most common quotes from them.
"Man, bullet are like, the best metal band going right now."
"Man, I really love Bullet. They're totally emo, but I love them."
-
I am fully aware of the differences between metal and emo.
I am not comparing metal and emo, the band is an emo/metal crossover.
-
Schimmy, when're we gonna get pictures of you dressed like a bisexual 14 yearold? I'll post mine once you've posted yours.

I'm all outta black hair dye at the moment, and I've been outside today, so I'm way too tanned, anyway, so it'll probably take a while.
Think this hair:

Curiously, I've always found that Britain is too small to have serious regional variation and I've encountered the same thing. For every Kharbevnor (eg - literate, well aware of the roots and hallmarks of each subset of the heavier end of rock) there seems to be maybe ten thousand kids who read Kerrang! and consider Punk, Emo, Goth and Metal to be the same thing. This is on the one hand pure ignorance on their part but also a result of the hegemony these bands must adopt in order to make a push for the mainstream.
This is the reason I feel like crying whenever I go to a metal concert, or read metal forums.

since no one else answered the challenge

Yeah thats me about 2 years ago :) I'm wearing my (Female) flat mates jacket...
Dunno how metal the photo is, if you squint you can see my copy of "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" and a few Darkthrone album on top of my PC...

Wow. You don't look at all like a little grey ambassador from the planet IX.

*Dune Nerd*
Scytale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scytale_%28Dune%29) never came from Ix, in fact there were no Ixians in "The Conspiricy" as far as I can remember Ix doesn't play a major role in Dune until "God Emperor" (book 4). He was one of the Bene Tleilax, not an Ixian, so I've always assumed he came from the Tleilaxu planet Bandalong. Either that or he was grown in an tank on a highliner somewhere.
Oh and Scytale wasn't the ambassador, Edric was, Scytale was just he's advisor (or as I like to think of it the mastermind behind the whole conspiricy)
... And only the Master's are grey and Elfin, Scytale was a Face Dance (he could assume various guises) at least in Dune Messiah anyway, its one of the things that really bug me about the last two books, how the hell does a Face Dancer end up beccoming a master anyway...
-
You know, there is a word for people like you ...
-
Yeah, totally awsome.
Dune nerds ftw.
-
Yeah, awesome, that WAS what I was going for.
-
Of course it was :D

I haven't read Dune in a long time but, wasn't Scytale one of the more advanced Face Dancers who could not only mimic but make a perfect copy of someone? If so, he could have easily gotten enough knowledge through time to get Master status, or even just copied a Master.

Here's a couple of me:

It's been far too long since I've read all 6 books... twice...
But I do recall Scytale being a new breed of Face Dancer. Could be wrong. It's happened before.
I think being a total Dune nerd is what really hooked me on QC. Everything else is amazing, but the occasional Dune references rock my world.
Muad'Dib lives!

Less Dune, more pictures of Darryl dressed like a bisexual 14-year-old.
Pony up.

Is your guitar made of legos?
It kind of looks like legos.
-
Don't be hating on the Lego-players.
It's a yamaha 402S. It's got a nifty green colour, a load of gold on everything that can possibly be gold and a mother-of-pearl pick guard. I chose it on looks alone.

Hey, I've got some perfect pictures of myself looking emo, but photobucket is blocked here at my school. I'll e-mail them to whoever wants them for this thing. I think it'd be effing hilarious.

E-mail it to franklikestea at hotmail dot co dot uk when you can, thanks.
-
despite the lack of anything that actually looks like emo or metal yet these attempts at getting there are hillarious
if you really want something funny for black metal pics look at this though
