THEY may wear their dyed fringes long and their threads grungy but, whatever you do, don't call them emo.Just as parents get their heads around the emo phenomenon - code for "emotional" - along comes another subcultural movement with its own fashion and music signifiers.

The Scene - or Scene kids - began on the networking site MySpace.Newcastle teenagers Emma-Jane "EJ" Scott, Kirra Dare and Eliza Coughlan, all 13, identify as Scene.

Their fashion tastes range from tiaras to ripped stockings, leopard print and 1980s band T-shirts. Thick eyeliner and elaborately coloured, back-teased hair are mandatory.It takes them two hours to get ready for a day at the shopping centre or skate park. A favourite pastime is recording the "death stares" they get from passers-by.

EJ said they played '80s and early '90s music, bands which were popular when they had not even been born.

The girls refer to websites such as http://www.wikihow.com/Be-a-Scene-Kid.

This is old news.

But I do love how they claim to be huge fans of music from the 90s and the like, and yet they weren't born or never even listened to it as kids when they were born. Pathetic. However, I'm not surprised. It's always been like that; the posers think they're cool because they're "unique" and "different".

Exactly...unfortunately there's this misconception that if I don't "stand out" that I'm nobody. Me, I'm a fashion retard...admittedly. I dress a certain way because I find the clothes comfortable. My wife tells me I'm plain and ordinary...but I say I'm comfortable. Then she puts on these shoes that make her walk funny, hurt her feet and at the end of the night she's been bitching for hours and is VERY glad to have them off!! All because this type of shoe is the latest fashion... what a bunch of sheep.

Trendy vs. Comfortable....I know what I choose.

I listen to Metallica and Megadeth a lot

Besides I thought they were the exact same? They sure look it. Also, the only silly thing people should wear around their necks is a clock like Flavor Flav

When I was at school I pissed off a lot of people because I had long hair and I got on the football team, that was apparently against the rules!
