THAT IS NOT PUNK... if you think punk is that mainstream Blink 182, Sum 41, New Found Glory, or any of that garbage... you need to stop living. Only thing that i head today that is somewhat mainstream punk is Liam Lynch... he is good.. get his album "Fake Songs" it's good. a little on the softer side lyric wise... but good non-the-less.
Agreed with pHo. Good Charlotte, Box Car Racer/Blink 182, Sum 41, New Found Glory...they aren't punk. They are "wannabe" punks. Good Charlotte grew up in the same place where I live-Friendship Heights. Their old stuff was ok. Then one of the members joined Wakefield (who are a pretty decent punk band, cd came out tuesday) and the band hit it big with "Little Things" but they still wnted to be considered punk so Beni or whatever the fucker's name is got his tattoos, spiked hair, long baggy pants with chains, etc...just to look "punk." A week ago I saw them in a Mexican restaurant in sweatshirts, looking non-punkish, and the spiked hair wasn't even up. FAKE. They aren't punk. The popular bands that try to look punkish and suck will never be PUNK. Rancid/NOFX/The Ataris/The YYY's/Interpol/AFI's old stuff/the bands pHo mentioned...well...that's true punk.
