Conclusion

During the making of my documentary, I did a lot of research and have come to many different conclusions about a number of different things within the topic of alternative music and culture from 1990-present day. I have discovered that when youths yell stereotypical names at other youths involved in said music genre, the 'emos' and the 'scenes'actually enjoy it, usually. I have discovered that the youths want to be known as a member of this stereotype, as it gives them a sense of belonging. Another thing I have discovered is that music has changed drastically since 1990. The lyrics in alternative songs are perhaps even more aggressive now, the music has a bigger edge to it and the number of alternative bands has doubled. I have come to the conclusion that in another twenty years, alternative music will have an alternative name, and will no longer be the type of music we associate with alternative nowadays. I have come to the conclusion that as society moves on, music will follow. I believe that in another twenty years, there will still be those who have classified themselves as a particular type of person simply because of the type of music they enjoy. That will never change. I believe stereotyping and alternative/indie/emo/punk/rock music is a very positive issue that has perhaps given many youths hope for the future and will continue to do so, even when the genres alter.
