    Generation X

    Generation X, commonly abbreviated to Gen X, is the generation born after the Western Post–World War II baby boom. Most demographers and commentators use birth dates ranging from the early 1960s to the early 1980s.

    Origin of term

    The term Generation X was coined by the Magnum photographer Robert Capa in the early 1950s. He used it later as a title for a photo-essay about young men and women growing up immediately after the Second World War. The project first appeared in Picture Post in the UK and Holiday in the U.S. in 1953. Describing his intention, Capa said "We named this unknown generation, The Generation X, and even in our first enthusiasm we realised that we had something far bigger than our talents and pockets could cope with."

    The name was popularized by Canadian author Douglas Coupland's 1991 novel Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture, concerning young adults during the late 1980s and their lifestyles. While Coupland's book helped to popularize the phrase Generation X, he erroneously attributed it to English rock musician Billy Idol in a 1989 magazine article. In fact, Idol had been a member of the punk band Generation X from 1976 to 1981, which was named after Deverson and Hamblett's 1965 sociology book on British youth, Generation X—a copy of which was owned by Idol's mother.

    Generation X (comics)

    Generation X is a fictional superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. A spin-off of the X-Men, the team was created by writer Scott Lobdell and artist Chris Bachalo. Generation X debuted during the 1994 "Phalanx Covenant" storyline, and appeared in their own monthly series in September 1994 with Generation X #1 (November 1994).

    Generation X consisted of teenage mutants designed to reflect the cynicism and complexity of the series' namesake demographic. Unlike its predecessor the New Mutants, the team was not mentored by X-Men founder Charles Xavier at his New York estate, but by Banshee and former supervillainess Emma Frost at a splinter school in western Massachusetts.

    The book's original creators left it in 1997. The series was cancelled with issue #75 in 2001.

    The team

    Unlike the X-Men and New Mutants, Generation X did not attend Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters in upstate New York or learn from Professor Xavier himself. Instead, they trained at the Massachusetts Academy, located in Berkshire County, Massachusetts, and were mentored by Banshee, an Irish X-Man who possessed a "sonic scream," and the former villain White Queen, an aristocratic telepath.

    Generation X (band)

    Generation X (also known as Gen X) were an English punk rock band, formed on 21 November 1976 by Billy Idol, Tony James and John Towe.

    Career

    Three members of Generation X were previously in Chelsea, along with lead singer Gene October. They soon broke away from October and selected the name Generation X (after Jane Deverson's 1965 sociology book, a copy of which was owned by Idol's mother). Idol switched from guitar to vocal duties, and Bob "Derwood" Andrews joined as lead guitarist after leaving the Fulham band Paradox. Generation X played their first concert on 14 December 1976 at The Roxy (becoming the first band to play at the venue).

    Towe was later replaced on drums by Mark Laff (ex-Subway Sect), to complete the 'official' line-up, before the band signed to Chrysalis Records and released their first single, "Your Generation" in September 1977. They played this song on Marc Bolan's afternoon variety show, Marc, that same month. This line-up of the band would remain through their first two albums, the self-titled, Generation X (1978), followed by Valley of the Dolls (1979).

    Generation 'X'

    by: Pain

    All the crap I've seen and how you're running things
    I'm not surprised
    You're reading for an early grave
    And with a smile we lower you down
    And now we see the industry is losing it's grip
    It's a dog eat dog world in this magical wild world of the web
    Step into the game
    Generation of the past
    Rejected from the fame
    We will see how long you'll last
    Don't blame your misery on me
    You're the on that's out of touch
    It's time to change the history
    'cause you want too much
    You know all the good things must come to an end
    You've been riding high on your lies
    And now you're going down with the burning ship
    Step into the game
    Generation of the past
    Rejected from the fame
    We will see how long you'll last
    Step into the game
    Generation of the past
    Rejected from the fame
    We will see how long you'll last
    The rise of new technology
    That kills the economy
    It's an infectious disease
    Don't blame your misery on me
    You're the one that's out of touch
    It's time to change the history
    You know all the good things must come to an end
    We're all disposable players in the wild world of the web
    Step into the game
    Generation of the past
    Rejected from the fame
    We will see how long you'll last
    Step into the game
    Generation of the past
    Rejected from the fame
