"There's never been a punk band that's sold a million records. Green Day isn't punk rock.

"One of the unfortunate bi-products of Green Days success was that the average imbecile associated punk rock with Green Day"

then what would you classify Green Day as.
It's deffanitly new age punk/punk-pop

[miss_inform]

punk pop is a contridictary term. They are pop. At best, i'll give them alternative rock.

[hueyxcore]

pop punk* which I meant to say..
is not contridictary.
It's an actual type of music.
like..Simple Plan. they are pop punk.
So is Taking Back Sunday, and Fall Out Boy.
even if they don't htink so. they are.

I really didn't mean for this to turn into an argument.

[miss_inform]

lol don't worry about it. i see where you're comeing from.

[hueyxcore]

haha okay♥

[primal_scream_]

taking back sunday is pop punk?

good god. i hate america.

[miss_inform]

lol you LOVE TBS.
(sarcasm)

[primal_scream_]

is it just me or has the original term ''punk'' been forgotten?

[miss_inform]

you're absolutely right. It doesn't exist anymore though, so why would people use it. This watered down shit oh my bad "pop punk" is the new term for socialy exceptable shit.

[primal_scream_]

i think if it has guitars these days, its automatically called ''punk''. then when you try to tell people its not they claim to know everything about music.

bullshittt

[miss_inform]

exactly. Any shitty pop record out there where the bands play their own instruments (well for the most part *cough yellowcardsimpleplan cough*) people run around saying it's punk. Lemme tell ya. These ppl think they know everything about music because they hear it on MTV. Ok you little fucks, go run off to hot topic and buy yourself a wristband then go home and cut yourself and put the wrist band over it. Obviously you're so punk.

haha, the term punk has been totally changed, and ignored.
I'm with you on that.
But it happens.

look how [most] kids use the word gay now a days.
we change words all the time.
It's just normal, and natural.

though I do hate when people mis use the word gay.

[hueyxcore]

aw, you don't like TBS :(
they did just sell out, in my opinion
but yes, pop punk indeed.
You're So Last Summer
Cute Without The E
many others from TAYF,
and then you have practically ALL of WYWTB.
and trust me, I can clearly tell you don't like pop punk, but I'm not making fun of it.
I listen to old rock, and pop punk.
and that's basically it.

Fall Out Boy, and Taking Back Sunday are some of my favorite bands.
