I wholeheartedly agree on your current favorite album. A lot of people I know claim they are wearing that CD out from playing it so much. Pretty catchy stuff.El_Gato wrote:I don't agree; I love ALL KINDS of different music, including JT! Nothing nerdy about that. My current favorite disc is Green Day's latest, "American Idiot".
Funny thing is, I never considered that "punk rock" until I saw them being referred to that way on TV the other day...

My brother refuses to like it for political reasons, but I think most people just enjoy it and don't worry too much about the message. Punk rock is supposed to be anti-authoritarian -- they would lose their street cred if they actually liked "the man."
That's funny. I guess all those kids wearing the black Ramones t-shirts everyone will have to go back to pretending that the Ramones were actually a good band. The contemporary torch-bearers are now officially sell-outs.PapaG wrote:I saw Green Day on VH1 doing some Storytellers thing last month.Bay Area Cat wrote:

Any punk cred they may have had prior to that is now gone. They are adult alternative now.
First CD I ever bought was Weezer. I love those guys, even though they are big time drug users. I love their new single “Beverly Hills.”CelticCat wrote:=w=eezer for life.
I couldn't agree more! Once you are on VH1 you are old people musicPapaG wrote: I saw Green Day on VH1 doing some Storytellers thing last month.

AC/DC and the gym go hand in hand! I never really liked any group that made their first album after 1980 but my son showed up with "Three Doors Down" last summer and I kept it when he went home.Bleedinbluengold wrote:Agreed - Green Day is the real deal.El_Gato wrote:I don't agree; I love ALL KINDS of different music, including JT!
