Depends on what critics you're talking about I guess.

You shouldn't hate it. It's what you like and that's cool. I'm just saying that your experience where you feel like you've had punk shoved down your throat is like the experience I had with classic rock. Like I said before I think it's a product of us growing up in somewhat different eras.

As for your comments about postpunk, I've loved it for ages and you know what? It got zero recognition for the longest time. It wasn't until this decade when the neo postpunk bands started showing up that anybody really started giving it any press at all. The idea of actually encountering sizable numbers of people who like it is still a very foreign concept for me.
