Music pop punk/punk revival

Punk....

Punk is the essence of a rebellion, grinding fast, hitting hard, and leaving you reeling.

Bring back ska.

Then I'll be really happy.

 

I like some of the bands. I like their clothes, hair, their looks. I love the music. the words i can hear and understand.
im glad its not techno too....i like some techno but not all. just like i like punk but not all. I say at least its not some nother boring one hit wonder. now thats funny. well to me anyways.:sweat:

 

ugh. i hate pop punk. and punk as a trend. as for the music today. i dont see them a punk maybe influences by the drive of punk, but isnt the essence of punk rebellion, and what so rebellious about mtv??? and arent the hives not influenced by punk but instead garage band of the late 60s/early 70's???
i dunno. music is music tho. if it makes you happy, roll with it.

*heart* rei

 

there is punk and there is pop punk...i dislike both...pop punk more though because people are trying and butchering the whole image of real punk. since when is being rebelious trendy? i guess now adays, people will do anything they see on TV and not think for themselves....thats another topic though... but hey, whatever floats your boat. your life, your intrests... :shrug:

 

i like some of the pop punk stuff...but yeah it will never be as good as the ones who started actual punk...but what BB said is right..at least they do write most of their own stuff...and some of the bands do have good music...although some of them shold jsut stop...heh

 

love old punk

What can I say...the Sex Pistols, Clash, Damned, Boomtown Rats, Elvis Costello, and the whole "STIFF" label freed me from the Disco-junk of the time, and finally gave a voice to my generation...

cheers to all those old codgers!


:bleed2:

 

the hives don't write their own stuff..

and the vines aren't pop punk.. theyre bloody good

 

I'm not in to punk myself and I can't really comment on it.

But the reality is that well crafted music played by talented musicians very rarely becomes popular.
I can't remember the last time it happened.

oh and the sex pistols were a load of scat.

 

Well I have a brother who is punk.. and i mean Punk. he is not the mainstream.. looks it cool to be punk.. He is in esence punk.

So when we was in highschool i heard all sorts of punk groops. we listened to The Misphits, Bad religion, NO-FX, Gob, Green day,Sublime, Long Beach allstars, melincolie (thats spelt wrong), Blood Hound gang befor the Animal song, planet smashers, and much much more...now this new stuff thats on mainstream TV its the soft core stuff.. and some is alright and some is prety much crap..

It's great that there is some real rock 'n' roll & punk stuff around again. Most music nowadays is overproduced and sounds too "clean".

I recommend these bands:

Flaming Sideburns - Hallelujah Rock 'n' Rollah
The Hives - Veni Vidi Vicious
Sweatmaster - Sharp Cut


More great records here!

 

well then

:glazed: i cant say at all that im punk, but i can say that i think that bands like the vines, the hives, and blink 182 are a complete disgrace to the genre. i mean, pop-punk is just horrible. completely off subject, metal is better. in my opinion. whats really annoying is that all the preps out there are think that they are "different" because, oh god!, they listen to linkin park, pod, and chop suey by system of a down! yet i own all but "steal this album (came out 2 days ago) of soads cds! i ask if they have ever heard "sugar" or "spiders", and i just get a blank stare. thank god no one likes tool too much, i know like 4 people that do. thats it. including myself. what really humors me is that one kid in my school thought that tool was "loud and screamed alot". i dont know how much medication he has been taking, but the only song ive heard them scream in is in "the grudge", and it was for 22 seconds. and for loud? i sometimes froget the fact that im listening to them when there songs get quiet. well, this has nothing to do with punk, so, peace out.
