Yeah people still care about punk. Well, at least I do. Sorry.

Yeah people still care about Green Day. Like you said before, they've done well for singing the same song for fifteen years.

Unintelligent and with no real purpose. Good way to describe Green Day actually. Smote that.
Glady. Firstly, derived from what exactly. Secondly, please elaborate upon just what makes Green Day - an already popular band, therefore one which would have something to lose, produce an album called "American Idiot" - "bland". Thirdly, how can a band just think to themselves, "I know, lets make a song with this exact beat and melody, with these exact lyrics, for abolutely no reason at all. Then we'll sell it for no reason, so people can listen to it for no reason."

Furthermore, you say i might think that calling you "son" gives me an air of, what you so eloquantly described as, joviality and/or superiority. Well yes i might think that, but i don't.

I look forward with utmost eagerness to your next installation, son.

Just because an individual cannot associate any given band with a genre does not imply that genre's are unnecessary or "evil" as one person put it. The first step is admitting you know little about a genre, for instance, punk. Whether or not you think Green Day is a good or bad band, I honestly from the bottom of my heart don't care. But when people hype Green Day as a quitessential/important punk band, and makes "tributes" to them, it is a travesty to punk bands you aren't aware of, just because they don't receive mainstream exposure. In conclusion, it is more than okay to like Green Day, but to put them at the top of a genre you probably don't know much about is naive. That is my two cents.
Well allow me to enlighten you as to what my intentions were. My intentions were as follows: to convey my opinion, that i positively do not, give the minutest **** about genre classification, on the firm basis that the individual is capable of independant thought. Therefore, the definition of a certain genre is highly succeptible to a widely varied consensus of opinion, due to the factors which would render a band in a particular genre. Therefore, the word "punk" is in fact interpreted in a variety of ways, accross the spectrum and will never be agreed upon, due to the finer subtleties of what makes music, music. Music is not about what you call it. Its about what it is, to you.

As far as i am concerned, a genre's only use is to relate a word to type of music which is not resolutely agreed upon and never will be, no matter how hard the media try to tell you otherwise.
