hahaha. now thats funny.

green day wont be punk until one of them od's on heroin or blows his brains out. Even then, just based on their music, they are "punk-lite" or punkish.

I hope you mean the best Green Day album in the last 10 years because I can think of dozens by other bands that blow it out of the water.

Well, whatever tickles your fancy dude. You have your opinion and you are entitled to it. I can't say I agree at all but hey.. its a free country.

why does punk mean rebelling? that would be called anarchy not punk

Boom The Cat

What else does it mean? Because unless its being kind, then the sex pistols beats it.

mookeywrench

which sounds more punk and which sounds more corporate rock?

a couple of street kids who are pennies away from being homeless get together to make music regardless of what talent they had in order to have fun and express themselves

or

a group of people grouped together to make music by a big wig who sees them as marketable

punk is about being yourself, being free and unrestricted from outside sources, and believing in your individual identity.

Boom The Cat

How are greenday individual? If punk fashions have already been done, what makes them so different from anything else we've seen. Oh and check John Lydons Background, he didn't have an indoors bathroom the reason why he got spinal meningitous was because of all the rats that were running around his house.

It's not about being a radical, and being different from everyone else. Its about making your own choices that are truly your own and believeing in your own intrinsic worth.

haha, i didnt even bother replying to that first one man, hope it was a joke.

Each to their own/opinions and all that but fucking hell lol

I personally like Green Day, but American Idiot is NO Dookie like everyone treats it. I like American Idiot, but far less than I would because of all the posers that follow it because it's popular now.

1)Formula driven
2)Will fit nicely with what else is popular at the moment
3)Sounds close enough to previously released material that was successful before, so it will not alienate fans.
4)Will do well with the 12 to 14 age group.

I can go on and on but I've got work to do.

she has a slammin' body. her face is a little beat but i'm no Brad Pitt myself. i love her body though. some muscle, tight abs...beats a skinny little model.

last year, my son(8yrs) told me once he wanted to be pierre bouvier(simple plan singer). i just ignored him.
then one week recently he spent a couple of days lying with me on my bed listening to aenima and lateralus on my headphones. i call that progress.

Greenday: They seem to think they are oh so very punk, punk=the sex pistols, they epitomised punk because they execised its meaning, to rebel against something. Are greenday doing that? No. "We are against bush" so what, just about everyone is against bush.

*REGARDING NICKELBACK AND CREED*

Nickelback, I have nothing against, I like the song photograph, the rest is just not one way or the other with me.

Creed: Scott Stapp is a fucking rock diva who really needs to open his eyes if he thinks Ed wants to write a song like his, he is pretty dumb, although creeds music I like, I dont care what you think about that, I like it, not over PJ but still, I quite like it.

Just thought I would leave you with a funny Sex Pistols fact..........In an interview Sid Vicious actually said that he absolutely hated eating
