One of the more contentious issues is genre labeling. In reaction to both the style of music and the background of the band, many fans and musicians have taken heavy objection to the usage of the term "punk" when applied to Green Day.
This is evidenced by the following comments issued by John Lydon (Johnny Rotten), former front man of both the 1970s punk band the Sex Pistols and the 1980s post-punk, Public Image Ltd.:
“ So there we are fending off all that and it pisses me off that years later a wank outfit like Green Day hop in and nick all that and attach it to themselves. They didn't earn their wings to do that and if they were true punk they wouldn't look anything like they do.[42] ”
I thought the whole idea of Punk is that you should be allowe to do what you like? Anarchy and writing music that you don't care what people think about? What a ****ing idiot Rotten is, he thinks he's the 'punkfather' or something, nobody is the 'leader' of punk, idiot.
He should die already before he sells out to an orange juice advert again.
