And I honestly can't think of a single Everclear song, and don't even know who Alejandro Escovido is, so I couldn't tell you.



And In Flames have sold more albums than Big Star ever did. What's your point? Music is now objective?

The Ramones are not Power Pop. Why? Cause they have a different approach and sound. Power Pop bands like Badfinger, Raspberries and Big Star used Power chords and they let them ring out.
