Me saying that about F*cked Up is clearly a matter of personal opinion. This is a music forum, nothing can be objective. "Punk" may be used interchangeably with "hardcore" by a lot of people, but that was not my intent.

And for the record: I am a big Cancer Bats fan, I love all three of their albums, and I enjoyed the first Gallows album. I just find F*cked Up a lot more interesting to listen to.

Yes, the bands you posted certainly define the term better than F*cked Up, but I like F*cked Up not only for their energy, but for their more experimental tendencies (more noticeable on later releases).

Then do us all a favor and stop being a pussy about it.

:laughing:

I think CAPTAIN CAVEMAN's right. It's fucking annoying when people retreat with, "Well, it's my opinion."

...as if I really needed to add that.

Caveman's smart enough to know it's an opinion, he just enjoys dissecting posts and starting arguments off of single lines.

"It's my opinion" is for pussies

Seriously, what else am I supposed to say? It is, after all, my opinion. I'm sorry, I can't put it in any better terms.

I've seen many other cases where people have made statements like I did, which are clearly their opinions, but no one calls them on it, so they don't have to use the hated line.
