I'm sure many of you haven't heard of Hawthorne Heights, but for the younger crowd, sad news.

1. That is sad.

I didn't like the band, but nevertheless, very sad.

2. terminal mopiness?

Or possibly end-stage EMOism? Sadly, another yammering black-Earther will emerge to take his place. And then the band's fan base will grow out of it and they will live ironically ever after opening for Rick Springfield on the country carnival tour.

3. I wouldn't call them EMO..

Just lame pseudo punk band that became popular. I think the term "emo" is tossed around too much when people don't know much about it. Oh fuck, another dumb emo thread.

5. Mainstream punk sucks today.

I never really got into them, but I'm guessing they're like Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and other crap punk bands that cater to 12 year old girls.

6. That would be correct..

Punk-pop that MTV made popular..

4. I wonder if this is the reason it's raining in Ohio?

RIP my good man.
