this band sucks. discuss THAT. losers. grown up already.
this band is amazing, any comments going against that will be deleted by me.
NOW what...
i'm kidding. i've listened to these guys because of chatter on this site and TECHNICALLY, they're VERY, VERY good. they just don't speak to me a all.
Weakling... Tap into your true feelings...
nevermind. i thought this was another band.
i remember Face to Face now. and they're TECHNICALLY not worth listening to. BUT it's the pop/punk crap that made pop/punk crap "popular" in the nineties. it defines an era for these young chaps. and it was easy and repetitive enough for them to learn to play on a lazy summer afternoon. and the "i'm young, flawed, heartbroken, uncertain, angry, fed up" lyrics no doubt helped them deal with their tough suburban teen lives. while i don't find it impressive, unique, or clever... it IS energetic, youthful and fun. old news: a lot of times it's not really WHAT you listen to... it's WHEN that dictates your future preferences.
i don't HATE it.
Whatever... punk sucks. Some of them play awesome instrumentally, but the style sucks. I would like it if they were just instrumental solos.
buuuut nobody cares what you like old man...
go sit in the corner and listen to records of the Bee Gees and let the big kids have a adult conversation
Go dance around in a mosh pit ya freak-a-doo
believe me hun im SO against a lot of pop punk bands and their fans thinking they're REAL punk....i LOVE classic punk, its the real deal. and i must say....face to face...they're pretty much the real deal...not pop punk.
are you kidding? REAL punk came WAY before this and it sounds quite different! this was the birth of pop/punk. don't fight it.
oh i will hun. ive been there w/the real punk bands....member im 35...been there seen that. you cant argue w/me there.
sorry, manuela. REAL PROTO-PUNK does NOT sound like Face to Face.
i havent said this is like badbrains or anti flag... but its def punk, and Face to Face was around before pop punk was even a thing....
either way, its freaking awesome...
i would def say that pop punk is one of the styles of punk played by face to face, and other skater punk bands like them, like NOFX, the offspring, lagwagon, NUFAN, and greenday just to name a few. there is nothing wrong with pop punk when it is played well.
but, there are plenty of bands that played punk before these guys, mostly out of new york, california, and the uk. social d. minor threat, the circle jerks, black flag, bad religion, dead kennedys, the sex pistols, the clash, and the beastie boys all come to mind. and even before those guys their were the ramones, the new york dolls, the romantics etc.
some of those bands date back to 1970, and as bv mentioned, protopunk (bands like the stooges, and i can't really think of any other examples) goes all the way back to the 60's. so even gina, at the whopping age of 35 hasn't been around since the begining.
so dan, as crappy as you think punk music is, it has an awesome history, filled with some of the most influential bands, and individual musicians ever to walk the planet. and any rock and roller, including neil peart, would call you an 'IGNANT FOO' if he read your comments regarding the genre.
isn't history interesting..."the more you know"
actually peart would probably be more likely to call you a 'hoser,' that slippery candian.
Whatever dude... If I told him I respect the musical talent but hate the style, he'd probably be fine with me. What would he say to you if you told him his band sucks? Meathead...
i've never said rush sucks. i hate geddy lee's voice, but i will always acknowledge the fact that they are some of the best musicians ever (seriously). i have aalways said that neil peart is one of my favorite drummers.
I believe that is exactly what I started out saying with Face to Face. Good musicians but hate the lyrics.
and kiddo before you go spouting off at the mouth, i've been into these bands for like FOREVER. i've seen the majority of these bands LIVE. lol so yeah, I KNOW punk. im not the girl that will throw on docs and THINK she knows punk cause she goes and hears a band here and there. lol
and YES i wasnt there IN THE BEGINNING but i've been around to see these bands start up AND grow. so yeah Im against most of the pop punk bands that're out there NOW. some i like cause they're fun
anyway i need to end this.
Punk apparently brings everyone to the dark side... Now there's arguing over it's history. LOL!
im not arguing about its history. im talking about MY history. lol
in "the beginning" you were like 2 years old. talk to someone like my mom who used to hang out with the ramones when they played at the bottom line, or max's kansas city in nyc.
re-read what i said kid.
and you can talk to my sis (whos probably as old as your mommy)and she'll tell you stories of hangin with he ramones in LA at the whiskey...LOL
Alex's mom still dresses him, so don't be too hard on him. LOL!
You're ancient... haha jk
not even! she's hotter and saucier than any girl you've ever dealt with.
Yeah well... you are a woman. So that's a biased opinion. LOL!
so, basically you're saying all woman have lesbian tendencies.
