i wish this whole pop-punk scene would die

bigredcat is on the money.

look at kelly osbourne. what in the fuck does she have to be mad about? her parents are worth around 60 million, they live in beverly hills, she drives a BMW SUV, gets everything she wants, and her parents let her do whatever the fuck she wants. NOW YOU FUCKING TELL ME, WHAT THE FUCK DOES SHE HAVE TO BE MAD ABOUT?! it couldnt be her paying her dues by playing in countless shitty clubs, that's for fucking sure.

the whole genre sucks, and everyone who likes it should kill themselves.

My list of shit bands:
Avril Lavigne
Blink 182
Good Charlotte
Sum 41
Anything that sounds remotely like any of the above or involves kids dressing up in a style that died before they were born.

They should lock all of these fuckers in a room, and then toss Henry Rollins in to take care of business.

jesus christ man! your taste couldnt get any worst...dashboard, the used, icp...have you been hanging out with my ex? that's the only person i know who has equally as bad tastes in music.

Bad taste? LMAO.. its bad taste to like everything? name a rock band you like, I assure you I will like it..

I don't mind rock, punk.... but POP and Rap/hip hop MUST DIE!

I hate rap and hiphop with a passions, it's not even funny.

That's what I'm saying- Kelly is doing pop crap because its what is selling which goes against pretty much everything her dad stands for musically. Of course, the whole Osbourne's thing has become insane in and of itself. Very few of the Osbourne's viewers really listen to Sabbath or Ozzy anyway, they watch it to see how fucked up their family is. That is fine too but too see Kelly try to sing is wretched. Everyone is so busy kissing her ass that they all forgot to tell her she sucks. At least Jack likes good bands- System of a Down, Faith No More,Helmet. He knows what's up as far as the music. Kelly will end up in the management side like her mom, just watch.

I would pay to see Henry Rollins beat some punkers asses! I would love to see celebrity Ultimate Fighting Championship!

I dont know how you can like rock and not like any hip hop. There is some bad ass hip hop out there- its not all stupid shit. I used to know some skinheads that listened to hip hop. Odd right? How can you not like Wu-tang? Dr. Dre? Come on, who hasn't cruised around in the summer with some gin n' juice blasting from the speakers. haha.

Yeah, my thing is that the kids that are into pop music and pop-punk are missing out on what I would call "real" music. There is a whole world of music out there besides what MTV is shoving down your throat. Throw on a Massive Attack CD and see if you like it. Try some Deftones. I just dont have much tolerance for fake aggression and BS emotion. When you hear Chino from Deftones sing you can tell its not a bunch of made up BS- its from the heart. Cant say that for pop-punk. Its all an image to sell clothes,CD's,makeup,magazines,shoes,hair dye- whatever they can sell you.


Shoving feathers up your ass does NOT make you a chicken.

See, getting old is good!

Because I have no idea what punk scene ya'll are talking about.

YAAY!


Score one for the over 30 crowd!

gangsta culture has come and stayed, prolly has a few more years left, then good riddance, and this horrible "punk" phase shall come to. I don't get how this shit's considered punk however. Since when does shopping at abercrombie and American Eagle make you punk? Shoot me.

well, allow me to paint a picture for you describing the pop-punk scene.

i want you to picture a bunch of angry, obnoxious, 15 year old losers who hate and bitch about pretty much everything and think they are on a different level than everyone else. picture a bunch of misguided, pretentious, ignorant 15 year old boys with chain wallets, colored hair, mohawks, and piercings all over their fucking face. now picture these kids forming a band, even though they only have around 6 months of experience with their musical instruments. now picture them singing songs about how bad society is, being anarchists, and breaking up with their girlfriend all in the same song.

as if that wasnt bad enough, the music videos are even worse. picture the band from above 'performing' and 'singing' in the middle of a crowd, while people are skateboarding in gorrilla suits, playing hackey-sack, kids pushing each other around in shopping carts, more faggot 15 year olds with 30 million piercings, stupid hair, and chain wallets dancing around trying desperately hard to 'rebel' against god only knows. it's pretty much an orgy of stupidity.

i hope i cleared things up a bit for you.

I agree with every word Zee poink sayd

All this crap music just shows that punk is deader than disco and has been for 25 years.

If punks back then had thought that kids now would be defining themselves emotionally by identifying with corporate co-opted canned rebellion, and buying said plastic, neutered identity as a product.....Actually come to think of it they did know. At least the Sex Pistols did, that's what the Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle was all about.

I'm always entertained by the self-consciously "real" punks I see, who are really making an effort. Americans just don't make good punks. It's always middle-class kids, which isn't very punk. And they're always clean! Even their clothes are clean. 18 years of expensive preventative dentistry kind of counts against you when you decide you're a punk one day. And they do things like go to college! And have jobs! They lack conspicuous substance dependencies - not even glue! The women are just as ugly as their flea-bitten counterparts in London or Berlin though, I'll give them that.
