This is kinda an unpopular opinion but I don’t like how HEAVILY people associate scene and emo culture with the early 2000s.

If someone dresses in trad goth people don’t as often tell them: “it’s not the 80s” or for punk/grunge “it’s not the 90s”.

Alternative fashion and music just do not work that way. Alt Subcultures don’t just “go out of style” the way mainstream fads do.

Because it’s not just a style. It’s a whole ass culture we’re talking about. Art, music, literature, fashion, movies, sense of humor, hobbies, etc all go into subcults & People who don’t follow the crowd aren’t going to care what the latest 2023 trends are, if that wasn’t obvious already.

Seriously what alternative person is gonna be like “wait, my style isn’t what everyone is doing this year? Dang well let me find out what everyone IS doing this year so I too can hop on the bandwagon!”

The Raincoats as photographed by Janette Beckman for Rough Trade records while rehearsing in London for their 1979 debut album. As the photographer recalls: "...I went to shoot them at their rehearsal space, but if you look at that picture, you can see that it's a toilet. They were literally in the bathroom practicing. It's just so punk and the place is kind of a wreck."

Ana da Silva and Gina Birch formed the group in 1977 after seeing the Slits perform. As Birch stated in an interview, "It was as if suddenly I was given permission. It never occurred to me that I could be in a band. Girls didn’t do that. But when I saw The Slits doing it, I thought, ‘This is me. This is mine.’ Palmolive, the Slits' ex-drummer at the time, actually joined them in '78, performing with the line-up that played live and recorded the debut album.

A weird fact for this all-girl band that was influential for so many female artists, is that it actually took a guy to help younger generations re-appreciate them and that's why the Raincoats somehow always seem to be mentioned along with Curt Cobain, since his enthusiasm for their music brought them back from obscurity in the '90s after citing them as one of his favourite bands and writing the liner notes for the reissues of their albums.

If you ask me, I think ol' Johnny Rotten was spot on when he said that: "The Raincoats offered a completely different way of doing things, as did X-Ray Spex and all the books about punk have failed to realise that these women were involved for no other reason than that they were good and original".
