Green Day are punk. Maybe not on American Idiot, but on prior records like Kerplunk, Dookie etc. what would you class them?

I say we should let Green Day in this discussion just so that they can be totally & utterly humiliated by the likes of H.R. , Derby Crash , Jerry A and Dave Vainian.

It's not a case of me wanting them humiliated , it's just compared to real bands as opposed to spoonfed MTV shite it's inevitable.

Lets just say it's a bit like pairing off your 90 year old great grandmother against Mike Tyson in his prime.
