ok not pop punk. and u should probably check out Green Day too (if u havent already)
alk3 are cool, me and skiba are like that | |
well, i kissed him....
you may like mxpx if you havent heard them already, which you should have
He said he wanted pop punk, and besides, if you are listening to that kind of music, its not for the lyrics. Would it really make that much of a difference if you heard a song cruising around town in a caddy and underage drinking at their prom or if it was about going to a pub with your mates and getting pissed and meeting some blokes?
And may I suggest Zebrahead, Mest, Lucky Boy's Confusion, Hoobastank, plain white t's and unwritten law
you.... kissed.... skiba? omg! lucky!
I haven't posted here for ages, just been lurking around, but I couldn't resist that alk3 comment!
Always when looking for Pop-punk listen to New Found Glory, Nothing Gold Can Stay and self-titled are damn fine albums.
Brand New (Your Favourite Weapon era)
Student Rick (Defunct)
Days Away
Name Taken
Bayside
Rufio (Pop-skate punk really, but meh, thats a dumb title)
The Reunion Show
Motion City Soundtrack
Limbeck
The Format
The Starting Line
The Rocket Summer
A lot of those are pop-punk/pop-rock sort of bands, so check them out.
Don't be so narrow minded. I can see your point of view, but lyrics are about interpretation and understanding. What you basically said just then is if the lyrics don't describe your life, you shouldn't be listening to that song.
Some bands write about American social life, or whatever, big deal, if I understand that then I can respect what they are doing and enjoy it. Maybe I can apply it to my own society and relate to it in certain ways.
If I could be bothered to write more I would, because that seems pretty silly to me.
Edited to say: Some other person made a good point. Pop-punk is mostly fun music, so the lyrics aren't really for deep analysis. However, my argument was looking at your argument on a larger scale.
Gotta say that with the exception of Fenix TX you're choices are spot on. Also try The Lawrence Arms. However, I would say most of these bands are punk rock rather than pop punk.
if you look, after iv posted all them bands, i've wrote 'ok, not pop punk.' which i meant as, 'ok, so they're not pop-punk', sorry if you've misunderstood.
Iv not heard blink-182's new album, but I dont like them anyway, apparently, The Offsprings new album is out tomorrow. I've heard two of the songs of it and they both sound pretty cool, so im gonna buy that tomorrow.
woohoo, busted ROCK!
LMAO perfect, unpretentious, guitar pop. They write their own (rather amusing) lyrics, sing live, and all the music snobs fucking hate them
My mate used to listen to Less Than Jake constantly, and I can safely say that they are utter shite :yes:
you're joking right? i hope so. in case you're not:
busted, aside from being shit, are about as 'punk' as avril lavigne. i.e. not very.
just because you sing a pop song and wear studded wristbands at the same time, it doesn't make your song a punk song. and for the record there are people who do pop several million times better.
busted rock about as hard as my granny in her chair. and wtf is up with that guy's eyebrows?
Yeah but to be fair... Hmm, how do I break this to you gently...
Will Young is your avatar.
Is he? Gawd, so he is.
Still doesnt't change my opinion of shitey guitar music
First of all, singing live is only an issue when ur talking about pop music, because ALL rock bands i have seen perform LIVE.
Secondly, they write their own lyrics. Same as number one really. Anyone who doesnt write their own lyrics dont deserve to be famous *cough* will young *cough*.
Thirdly, if by music snobs, you mean people who like good music then yes, we fucking hate them, cuz they are fucking shit.
And finally someone who likes Will Young shouldnt be telling others what music is good (eg Busted) and shit (LTJ), cuz your opinion is worthless.
Maybe it doesn't change your opinion, but it does mean we can disregard it..
Nah, I'm joking. I'm glad you have your own taste and opinions rather than just going along with whatever everyone else says, it takes guts. But Busted... Really not very good. There's a million bands doing the same thing but better AND with more integrity.
I bet they don't sing live all the time, i know that they don't actually play live.
"look at meee *hops about* i can play the guuuitar *begins strumming at an acoustic guitar when an electric one can be heard playing*"
And what has LTJ got to do with busted?
Not when it is is plain text, with no emoticons, along with the fact that some people ACTUALLY hold that opinion. Unfortunately, Brian took you seriously.
