Punk Music

Personally I don't like Punk Music at all. Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Jimmy Eat World, American Hi-Fi, Sum41, etc.. etc.. I don't find anything about their music very appealing. It all sounds like crap to me, I prefer the heavy metal stuff.

This is just my opinion, what do you guys think of it?

Well, most people who are actual punk fans would tell you is that none of those bands you mentioned are punk. Which is true, but I don't like real punk bands anymore then i do those bands.

I don't like punk music, I dislike the whining, twangy tone in the voices of the singers, and i don't like the whole wannabe rebel gimmick most of them rely on.

So I agree with your opinion.

Yeah I know that most people wouldn't agree that those are real punk bands, my best friend is a punker and she listens to all of the more inknown artists but I just felt like I needed to use an example.

Meh I hate all of that crap, I can't wait till this Good Charlotte fad is over

well i have do disagree with you bf not all punk band have the concept of those whining, twangy tone or rebel wannabe (those are proclaim to be punk)... for example The Clash, The Ramones, Stiff Little Finger, Generation X, The Smith etc ... these is among band that different from what you mention earlier... their music are melody and still their lyric have the message that we should relate to life... punk is a way of life not a fashion or a gimmick... nowadays a lot of band are proclaim to be punk only for the sake of famous or money.. that what mainstream all about...

cheers mate!!

I can understand why people love punk music so much for the simple reason it is meant to be more of a happy kind of music. But I honestly just cannot stand the sound of their voices or the beat to their music. Put those two together and 😘

I disagree with Jimmy Eat World, but I couldn't agree more with the other bands you mentioned.
They suck!

You failed to mention the biggest punk phony out there, AVRIL!😘

Ick -shudders- Avril is absolutely horrific 😘

Like one journalist said "Avril is the first person I have seen whose clothes actually rock harder then she does" 😆

I was a punk before you were punk 😄

Long live Sex Pistols, Sham69, Buzzcocks, Dead Kennedy's, Ramones, Siouxie...it seems that it will be a looong night remembering my youth..
..and alternative music of the eightys...The Chameleons, Joy Division, The Smiths, Echo & The Bunnymen, Felt, Cocteau Twins (Liza!!!! 😱 ), Bauhaus, etecetera...

I really don't know anyone of that bands mencioned at the begginig of this thread but it seems to me more american young bands without the real punk spirit..but maybe I will hear someday and maybe I like it...

i like some real punk this happy pop punk they they try to pass of to us as punk is crap punk bands i like
ramones
sexpistols
gg allan

I like emopunk. Bands like thursday are really amazing. You should give them a try Linds, you might like em.

you know what? PUNK IS BETTER THAN GOTHIC HEAVY METAL BITCHES! HA HA! well, ok maybe good charlotte and simple plans are posers, they are more pop than punk. REAL punk is : The Sex Pistols, The Ramones, Black Flag etc. THE NEW GOOD PUNK: Green Day, The Ataris, Afi (kinda punk), Blink 182, you know what i mean. Punk rock and plain old rock isnt that much diffrent...just the beat

punk is a lot easier to play then real heavy metal if their are any other guitar players on here i know they would aggree with me

Sk8stuff, Blink is pop punk, idiot. Ataris are really popular too.

Ataris are that band that coverd the don henly song huh man they are so not punk

yeah - my husband teaches guitar. he loves it when a student wants to learn a punk song, because the guitar parts are usually really easy to teach.

i love this band called scaterd few. if you guys ever find anything by them, give it a listen. some of their stuff would definately be called punk. especially on the cd called "grandmother's spaceship." they are one of my favorite bands, and not all of their stuff is punk, but some of it definately is.

I disagree with Jimmy Eat World, but I couldn't agree more with the other bands you mentioned.

At least you know a good band when you hear one Tex. Jimmy Eat World's cd Clarity is better than their latest, check it out. By the way, check out my friends site, secondstobreathe.com, ...if you like Jimmy, you will like them.

ataris only became popular recently, they've been around for ages. and hteir old stuff is good, new stuff not so good.

I don't really like heavy metal, its too hardcore for me, some of the heavy metal bands i listen too don't really play musicly, i like bands that accually use chord progressions and 2, 5, 1's. but thats just my opinion
call me what you want but i kinda like Simple Plan
Blink is better tho, I listen to them alot

I like AFI and Green Day....and I hate good charlotte and Simple Plan...and Avril 😘
