IMO the problem with music today (all music basicly) is the need to classify bands. music is music, but in order for music stores,radio stations, etc to sort it all out they feel the need to classify bands. do the people always agree? no. but they unless they put every damn catagory and sub catagory and mix catagory and sub mix catagory blah blah blah in there seperate shelves then we will have to just deal with it.
i have no problem with some of the "nu-punk"...if it dont want to put to much thought into what im listening to sure i'll throw on a blink cd or g.c cd..emo isnt bad,it probably shouldnt be put in the "punk" label but sometimes i dont feel like listening to loud pounding rants.
like many before me i started with bands like blink182, which for the most part i still like (older stuff especially)..from there i branched out to bands like nofx,rancid,lagwagon,misfits,social distortion..and there are still plenty for me to discover
.It does make me sick and tired however to always see people BITCHING about what they dont like in music. honestly i could care less if you dont like pop-punk-emo.thats your opinion, congrats! but it is still yours and yours alone, not mine.Listen to what YOU like and enjoy that, dont go all pissy whiny when an new found glory cd touches your ramomes cd
its been said that punk=non-conformity, so i find irony that non-confrormists have to conform to non-conformity
