What really bothers me about that isn't the fact that you said something negitive about Fallout Boy but rather that you dislike them because of something they have never claimed to be. I don't like them because of their music, not because they aren't 1970's english punk, or because they aren't some 1970's, late 1980's, early 1990's californian revival. If anything those bands stole punk and bands like Fallout Boy brought it to another generation. It's people that harp on "pussy" bands like green day and blink 182 for writing pop hooks when realy all they wrote were three chord progressions set to fast tempo drumming. Isn't that The Clash? Isn't that The Ramones? I don't even like "punk" in general, although there are great bands. But until someone can justify claiming a certain type of music is bad for a reason other then "they suck because they didn't start it" I'll be pissed of. It's unfair to blame a band for not being the same as your favorite band, because if they were youwould still hate them for "copying" your favorite band. You're just hating for the sake of hating.
Again, not a fan of fallout boy, that just really makes me angry. It's ignorant.
