Pop all you want, a huge amount of those bands are not punk at all, the only thing punk about them is that they just say they are punk because it sells
Extreme deja vu!

Yeah, I don't like pop-punk either (if it's not 80's/early 90's pop or electro-pop, it generally sucks) but I think I have two or three such songs on my iPod (does AFI count?).

I think early AFI is more streetpunk and later AFI is more emocore. They might have one or two songs that fall into a more pop-punkish sound from Sing the Sorrow (Girls Not Grey, Celluliod Dream?) and December Underground (Summer Shudder, Killing Lights) though.

This isn't the old gw where everyone circle jerks over dream theater, we are just sharing opinions. Sorry for not liking music because I simply don't like it. No one is mentioning anything about 'what good music is', we are simply sharing individual taste.

I know gw music forum broke your spirit awhile ago, but this isn't really happening on that level anymore.

if GW still was a circlejerk then every single topic would be about porcupine tree like it was a few years back, because they still seem to be the most popular here.

Also I really don't like this kinda music, it's really boring and is generally written for the sole purpose of being a commercial product as opposed to expression, and being one of them crazy fools who prefers the artistic and/or instrumental side of music this really holds zero redeeming value to me.

it served the purpose of getting people into music they wouldn't hear otherwise but yeah it was really ridiculous how that happened, and I can only think it was a combo of just EVERY ADMIN liking dream theater and nerds.

these are stupid posts and while the other ones saying UGH...THIS BAND REPRESENTS ALL THAT IS WRONG aren't much better, at least they are based in some degree of established truth whereas yours are just whining with no justification.

seriously ugh this band is pretty terrible and while you could have picked a worse topic to claim some elitism in, this one is in the running.

yeah fair enough, i mean, there' snot really a point in derailing topics, but sometimes expressing an opinion can do that, especially when that opinion is 'i hate this kind of music!'

on topic though, I have The Offspring's greatest hits cd, its pretty good, though I haven't listened to it since I stopped liking them.
