sorray!
im sorray for affending you
im not a little pop girl
i liked simple plan and greendays music well before i saw their faces or to that point their bodies. Infact, i didnt fancy them till i saw them in concert. Everyone has different tastes in music, which i can accept
but it really p****s me off when ppl call these bands pop.
Read the new issue of karrang out today. Would sp and greenday b in karrang if they werent good/ if they were pop?! 🙂
"Read the new issue of karrang out today. Would sp and greenday b in karrang if they werent good/ if they were pop?!"
Yes.
I never said Green Day were Pop. I said they have Pop sensibilities. Simple Plan ARE Pop. The only reason they are in Kerrang is because they carry instruments. Fightstar were in Kerrang also, so were Good Charlotte. There's nothing remotely Rock about any of those bands.
You didn't offend me but I don't care if it pisses you off or not. Simple Plan are Pop.
-AC
Special Plan (because only Special people listen to it), Good Charolette, Green day- They are ALL pop pansys. I Respect and like the old GD stuff but they sold out so badly it makes me want to puke. Real punk is not dead but to the majority of people it is. Their concept of punk is what is stuffed down their throats by popular media- Bratz dolls plastered with british flags or the "bratz PuNk!" series as its known, Avril with her ****ing shitty ass piece of shit pop jizm thats supposed to be music, simple plan and good charolette. All MTV baby shit that mean NOTHING to real Punk!
You guys forgot Anti-Flag! euro
Why is everyone so hung up on what genre to put different bands in?does it matter that much really🤨 everyone has a different take on what is what and not everything fits in to a category. And why if you hate the band so much did you read the cover of good Charlotte's album?!? What you think of the people in the band shouldn't decide whether you like their music 😒
My fav punk bands are
Thrice, Bigwig and Thursday, Refused.
I have others but im getting really bored and the sound feels too old. NOFX were great 10 years ago, but the newer shit is still the same thing. Same with Pennywise, Dropkick and all the older punk bands from the early 90's. Punk was great, but alot of its the same now.
Emo isnt "punk", its emo. And their is some good emo bands out there but I dont call them punk.

Haha, I love the way you make some big world-weary speech like you're a real punk veteran, after stating (to my great amusement I might add) that your 4 favorite 'punk' groups are Thrice, Thursday and Refused, 3 posey totally non-punk emo/screamo bands, and one wannabe band who are more nu metal than punk.
Dropkicks are average, Pennywise suck. NOFX ten years ago? So that'll be pre-Punk In Drublic/So Long & Thanks.../War On Errorism NOFX then. Have you got ears? Then you'll know that those three, all produced within the last 7 years, are NOFX's best albums. By far. And if you do in fact have ears, maybe you should actually listen to all the new touches and instrumental additions NOFX made to their latest album, released just a mere 2 years ago, in order to (successfully) freshen up their sound. Punk isn't old, it isn't dead, and it isn't going anywhere.
Here ends the shit fit.
Anyone that thinks they are punk, usually aren't.
What do people think of The Dropkick Murphys? I'd consider them to be punk. They have that Irish-folk-like attitude which seems more friendly and community based, which in many ways punk has aspired to be. Saw em live last year, their moshpit was like a tornado. So glad I was nowhere near it.
Im not a punk veteren, I never stated that I am.
Thats my personal opinion that the punk that is popular today is shit.
And Deathblow, Punk in Drublic was released 10 years ago and is basically the same as Two Heebs but with better production values. It has some good songs and classics. So Long and Thanks for all the Shoes was released 8 years ago and had alot of ska. NOFX is great, but their sound is getting old. How many times do we have to hear about how bad the government is and/or funny lyrics.
What new bands out there are punk now?
All punk is now is some genre with sub genres like any other genre. Not like before, where punk was punk. I dont call myself a punk because I was never was. I used to love punk music but I got bored.
And you forget Bigwig, and if people dont call them punk I dont know what punk is. I always thought punk music was about attitude and not how it sounds.
the adolescents, tsol, the joykiller, dead kennedys, sex pistols, DI, the clash, UK Subs, Sham 69, Minor Threat, the Cruci****s, Millions of Dead Cops, Flipper, Negative Trend, DOA, NOMEANSNO, Channel3, NotFlipper, ADZ, Flower Lepperds, Reno Divorce, LARD, Melvins, X, the Germs, Nirvana, the Meatmen, LA's Wasted Youth, Black Flag, The Circle Jerks, The Avengers, The Weirdos, cramps, Vice Squad, Butthole Surfers, Shonen Knife, Ramones, etc.

Did you not see the ''like you're some punk veteran''? Clearly not. Why do you people always misinterpret simple similes all the time?
Actually, it was released just over 7 years ago. And it's way better than Two Heebs, the songs were better, Fat Mike's voice is better, the guitar is much better (see Dig) and yes, the production values were better. So Long was released after Punk In Drublic, it's also just over 7 years old, and NOFX ska rules, so I really don't see your point there. And no their sound isn't getting old, like I said their latest album sounds totally fresh, loads of new instrumental, vocal and lyrical touches. And omfg, you just proved you know nothing about NOFX anyway, because War On Errorism (an album you clearly either don't have or have listened to like once), was their first political album. So no, you haven't heard them tell you how bad the government is over and over.

I didn't forget Bigwig, see:
and one wannabe band who are more nu metal than punk.
Maybe so with the attitude thing, but if that was the case then Public Enemy, Rage Against The Machine, System of a Down, Mr. Lif and any number of metal, alt rock & hip-hop groups would be classed punk, so in other words, no, it's not just about the attitude. It would be a ridiculous genre if that was the case. And you clearly don't know what punk is, so please just go back to your weak little Thursday emo bands.
