Subculture emerged as a reaction to the mainstream – but from film to smoothies it's now its main target
In the early 1990s the standup comedian Bill Hicks used to begin one of his skits by suggesting that everyone in the audience who worked in advertising or marketing should immediately kill themselves. The problem, he said, was that any marketers or advertisers in the audience would likely be nodding their heads in agreement – quietly congratulating him for having the sense to court the lucrative anti-marketing demographic.
Hicks was ahead of his time because, in the last few decades, the relationship between alternative culture and the mainstream has changed out of all recognition. Subculture, after all, used to be subculture: in the 60s and 70s there emerged hippies, mods, rockers, punks and casuals, and before long youth culture was buoyed up by a shifting array of tribes, each with their own distinctive dress codes and rituals.
