I&#8217;m not actually emo, though I must say that I like their fashion taste and I definitely don&#8217;t dislike their music. I do think the &#8220;emo&#8221; scene can be a little meladramatic and pessimistic. My cynic personality can definitely think the same way as a stereotypical emo kid but I try to be more optimistic than that. Life may have a lot of crappy things in it but it has way too many phenomenal things to pass up.<\/p>\n<p>Now that I&#8217;m off my soapbox, I can tell you how I named the band after a song that I was listening to earlier today. <em>I Should Mean More<\/em> is by Jamison Parker, maybe one of the most depressing emo bands alive. I then gave the album the name of <em>Melancholy<\/em>, to be just extra stereotypical. For the photography, I got a picture of a creepy bed by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kattenmeisje\/\" target=\"_blank\">moggierocket<\/a>. She is really a phenomenal photographer. I then added some contrast, extra shadows, and dusts and scratches to call it done. Does it make you sad?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-261\" title=\"Melancholy by I Should Mean More\" src=\"http:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/blog_03_10_10.jpg\" alt=\"Emo album cover\" width=\"580\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/blog_03_10_10.jpg 580w, https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/blog_03_10_10-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/blog_03_10_10-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emo: the culture of junior highers and high schoolers who take the flag of depression, melancholy, and tight pants.
