Preppy Metaler Trend {Forget the 00's} 1998-2003

Though the guy in the picture is Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park, let's forget who he is for a minute and pretend this is just some random kid who took his picture online. Not so much a scene but more a trend that immitated the mall-metalheads who were also big at the time. Some would say this was an act of reliving the metal scene... A resurge but the reality is that it started a parody yet turned into a trend! Kelly Osbourne being the famed daughter of heavy metal godfather Ozzy caused the popularity of the look and trend to rise. However Avril's first hit hailed the ending of looking metal!
