Emo Mug
Emo = Emotional Hardcore Contrary to popular belief, Emo is not about being depressed or cutting, it's not short for emotional, it has nothing to do with teenage posers who follow the trend of pretending to be bisexual, depressed, and wearing all black. It's not a fashion. The fashion that's commonly referred to as "emo fashion", is actually called "scene". And MCR and Fallout Boy are NOT emo. In actuality, It's a branch off of hardcore punk that started in the mid 80s with the punk band, Rites of Spring. They hated the glorified violence and restrained music that infected the D.C. hardcore scene, and took hardcore to a greater level of experimentation with more emotional lyrics and more melodic instruments. Soon after, a surge of new bands started forming and creating their own adaption of the style that Rites of Spring innovated. The summer of 1985 became known as "revolution summer". Good emo bands from "revolution summer" include: Rites of Spring, Embrace, Moss Icon, Dag Nasty, Gray Matter, Nation of Ulysses, and Fire Party. After the disbanding of Rites of Spring, Ian MacKaye (from Embrace) and Guy Picciotto (from Rites of Spring) formed the post-hardcore band Fugazi in the early 90s. who influenced bands such as Sunny Day Real Estate, Far, Braid, and Jimmy Eat World. In my opinion, Sunny Day Real Estate are to mall emo, (the music that's commonly referred to as emo today) as Rites of Spring are to emo. They started the whole movement of mainstream "emo" bands. Happening at the same time, was the the unground movement of screamo. Screamo sounded similar to emo, but louder and with a lot more screaming and slightly different song structures. Screamo started with bands such as Antioch Arrow, Palatka, Portraits of the Past, and The Swing Kids. The music comprised of brutal yet somewhat melodic guitars, loud, fast drums, song structures that switch from quiet to loud, and obviously, screaming vocals. One thing that's not true is when people say real emo is a dead genre. because, while mainstream "emo" has taken over MTV and the radio, an underground emo/screamo scene still exists. Circle Takes the Square, Raein, Daitro, Haram, 1905, and ...Who Calls So Loud, City of Caterpillar are all examples of emo (and screamo) bands from the last eight years, most of them are still existing. It's not a dead genre, you just have to look for the real deal.

very good product, i drink my coffee out of it every single morning. a tiny little itty bitty problem i have with it though, is that every time i drink anything except for coffee out of this mug it barrates me for having bad taste. makes me very sad, honestly. i didnt know cups could talk, but appearently i have been proven wrong. i would really appreciate it if you could start double checking if your cups are possesed by melicous spirts who like to insult you! except for that, great product!!
The workmanship of the product was excellent, and packaging for your delivery of this fragile item, a coffee mug, was appropriately safe. Nice job all around. Thank you.
It's the best mug in the history of mugs.
love it
excellent customer service. i gave the wrong address and they got it here quick.
This was easy to order although I wish the preview pics showed the next on both sides once you finish customizing. But I appreciated that if the text doesn't fit they email you and ask what you want it to say. Came out great and I can't wait to give it as a gift
it was frickin good mug i liked it it was good I have never thought of myself as someone who drinks from mugs. After I drank from this mug, I thought of myself as a mug-drinker. It was magical. My entire life changed. I didn't know what to do with myself anymore. How do you follow up a lifestyle change? I went on a long walk. About 67 miles. Once I got to the Walgreen's I realized I could've just drove. But I didn't. I'm no quitter. Not with this mug. This mug gives me power, perseverance. You want this mug. Trust me. You want this mug.

I love How I can order a cup with one of my favorite words
Well printed, the mug's ceramic is of good quality, I'm not sure what else I can add. I am surprised it could be printed and shipped so quickly based on my earlier experience printing/kiln-firing/baking this kind of product. Well done.
Sent to a friend. He loved it!
I can't stop putting weird things on the cup I love this website 😆
Purchased this for my fiancé. One night watching TV, she blurted out the word "kaputnik." We laughed so hard. Never dreamed it was an actual word. Now, we know better. LOL
Sent a mug with DABNABIT printed on it to my Grandaughter for her birthday! She absolutely was thrilled with it! This is a saying I’ve used over the years a lot & we’ve always laughed about it! Ordered myself one too!!
Best mug I've ever seen honestly
looks great, came quickly, exactly as I wanted. minor observation - the coffee mug was a bit smaller than I expected. The mug is normal size, but most of my mugs tend to be a bit larger. No matter. I still enjoy it!! Perfect would have been larger - but that I my preference.
Bought this mug as a joke, the concept of there being a "magical one" was very funny to me. Great quality, I even feel magical myself.
Perfect!!
