The Doors are NOT punk in ANY way. The Clash could be considered punk, but NOT The Doors.

Haha look your account got disabled again ***ggggot!!!!!!
And I know you're talking about punk but just as long as you're not bad mouthing The Doors in any way, shape or form.

Dude you're ****ing stupid.
And even if I wanted to mention a real punk band (the Clash) I wouldn't because that's what all the sheep do and I don't want to be a sheep. I wanted to branch off of ****ing Clash, Pistols, Ramones going around and around and around........****er.

Hate to bust your bubble but it's also a form of music.

OK THERE ARE LOTS OF YOU ASKING KIDS QUESTIONS TO OTHERS WHO DONT KNOW S!HIT ABOUT PUNK SO IF YOU ARE REALLY INTERESTED IN REALLY KNOWING ITS HISTORY THAN GO HERE AND READ
http://encyclopedia.lockergnome.com/s/b/Punk_rock

Dude you're a know-nothing. You ****ing pasted all those bands and pulled a MusicKnowItAll.

Youve copy and pasted this same list three times already. Thats so amusing I dont think you should be banned.This kids a keeper

Blah blah blah, who cares what bands are punk? How about we quit arguing and start listening to more of our favorite music, whatever you decide to call it...

Does Offspring really qualify as punk?

I don't think so...

^ Read the post directly above yours, shutup, and go back to whatever you were doing before.

Ha! That one made me laugh. Great post!

I didnt take time to read every page of this thread ..just the fist page actually :D

Am I the only one that is getting tired of genre's, and thinks people should just listen to whatever they want to?

You are not the only one. I'm so sick of people fighting over which genre "XYZ" band is. Why can't we just like what music we like, and quit fighting over what label we place on the band. A label or title in no way changes who a band is or what they sound like!

WTF does it matter?
 

Does all this "this is punk / no it's not" hot air achieve anything?


What is the motivation for this pointless nitpicking - why this obsessive need to be able to correctly categorise every artist?

Are we worried that we might mistakenly listen to something thinking it's something it's (arguably) not, and risk our credibility amongst a purist peer group?

How anorak are you prepared to be people?

Rather than end up arguing a futile case about whether or not some act IS a particular genre, you can simply change the slant by making the genre noun into an adjective, by simply adding a 'Y'.

Here's an example:

Anorak 1: "Blink 182 and Green Day are NOT punk bands dude"

Anorak 2: "Perhaps not dear friend, but both have recorded some very PUNKY tunes in their time."


If you find yourself liking a tune by a band you aren't particularly into, from a genre you've decided you hate, WTF is wrong with just going: "hey, these people are usually crap, but this track works for me, I think I'll just listen to it anyway - and anyone else can go F**k themself if they don't like it"? Besides anything else, THAT'S a punk ethic right there.

Live a little. Don't try and pigeonhole your music or yourself - it's a restrictive practice.

This thread is so OOOoooold !!!!!!!

To I8 goths, punk is bands like the clash, the sex pistols, the ramones etc, the offspring are pop-rock, not punk-rock.

oh shut up!!!!!

if their not punk then they must be better because i love that kind of music quite dissin old man

Sorry, I'm repeating myself.

First of all your user name isnt very nice *frowns* second of all who are you to say that those groups arent punk?? If they arent punk what in the world do you label them as??? think dude! :usehead:

hey pm me im neew here it would be cool to get to know a few of you thanx!

Quit posting that on the end of all your posts so you can get your post count up quicker. We know you are new and if we want to talk with you, we will do so. The only thing you are accomplishing by posting that garbage is making people mad... :)

gee i wonder how many times this has been done......

*head explodes*


thrice, frost, .....wanna do us all a favor and close this thread now?

sorry no more of that

Yeah, I kinda agree that it is 'nitpicking', however most of the people who complain about such 'nitpicking' have not made a good effort to listening to a lot of punk bands. Instead of backlashing against this kind of thing, people should go out and listen to some of the other more 'obscure' bands recommended, and see for yourself that it is not easy (or possible) to believe that the bands you mentioned play the same music.

wow this is like the third blink 182 thread in a week, i just realized that.....

who wants to close it this time?

I think it is the same one being bought back. And no one will close it cause their are no mods here.

There are plenty of mods, quit complaining. If you want this thread locked, go PM a mod... But dont just spam up the thread with pages and pages of "OMFG WEN WIL THIS THRED B CLOSED FFS!!1"

I have and nothing was done

Well theyre not online right now are they. Jeez.

I did it about 2 days ago moron

Moron? Pah.

Have a little patience. Im sure you can cope for a few more days, or is it really harming you so much that you cant seem to stop posting in it?

Yes, yes it is. And I don't see why I should have to pm them to close a thread. They are moderators they should have already done it.
