A 'Mosher' is the name for people who listen to anything from rock-metal-deathcore and arent bothered if they're popular or not. They tend to hate chavs (who can blame them) and aren't obssessed with slipknot like most people make out. Not all 'moshers' have long hair and they wear any clothes that arent trackies. Overall they are very friendly unless your a chav and quite a few of them smoke, drink and take drugs but they don't do it to show off.

Moshers=best people there is
Someone who generally dresses in black...i.e baggy jeans and normally a band t-shirt with long hair(but not always long hair). They listen to alot of slayer,machine head,chimaira and other such metal bands. They enjoy going to gigs.They tend to avoid fights with people mainly chavs but there comes a time where there is a need to actually get stuck in. They stick up for what they believe in and for their friends

A mosher is not a actually a label. It is a label the 'chavs' or 'townies' use to label anyone who is abit different from them.
The word mosh is actually a verb a doing word and decribes an activity. The activity is a certian dance 'moshing' and you do this 'moshing' in a moshpit.
Any emo, goth, punk, alt, etc... cxould mosh if they wanted to. It is not a steriotype but it describes the dancing which they do.
Stupidly, If a group of chavs saw an emo, scene kid and a hippie together they proberly would all be 'wrongly' labeled mosher.

A cultural phenomenon in the UK (and else where?). Mosher is a term used in mass terms (main by opposing stereotypical youth, the Kev, or Scally) to stereotype any youth who listens to any type of rock music, that doesn’t get played on pop radio (though ironically most Mosher bands are on major labels), and abides to a certain dress sense. In reality this isn’t a far comment, as a Mosher is somewhat frowned upon in many of the scenes that get put under the same brush: such as the Hardcore, and Metal scenes. Today the Mosher is some what of a dying breed with the new cultural phenomenon (okay, trend) Emo has taken its place and most of the “Moshers” with it. Though, there is a borderline where Emo and Mosher meet, however this is usually to do more with wealth than anything else (with “Fashioncore” clothes and accessories costing more than some can afford). Moshers tend to feel as though they need to set themselves apart from the crowd and often at outrageously, and wear black and baggy clothing, though it must be said that most fail and look as generic as those they moan about. Whereas Kevs are regarded as socialising near there homes, at parks and on street corners, Moshers tend to hang more in city centres around shopping centres and such, thus the term Mallgoth.
Music: Read Kerrang what’s hot in that’ll be a good clue.
Dress sense: None… Sorry, Black baggy jeans (DDs) and black baggy band shirts, usually poorly printed (ironed!) on as they’ve been bought somewhere like afflecks palace (aptly called Mosher Palace by some random stranger I meet on a bus once). Badges on their groovy bag, for some reason they can’t have backpacks. :s poorly applied make up, usually black this is probably to make them look evil and accounts for both genders.
Personality traits: varied, though often seen as moody, and use of Americanisms even though they are British.
There are differences between Moshers and… True Metalhead (all types, art, BM, DM, etc), Real Hardcore (again all styles UKHC, NYHC, etc…), Indie (I don’t even see how they get called Moshers!), and Emos (though Emo is IMO Moshers pretty sister)… So don’t fucking call me one!.. Or any who isn’t.
