ALL of this 'punk' stuff that comes out these days makes me ill. The punk I know is Ramones, Black Flag, Exploited, early Suicidal Tendencies, Agent Orange...THAT is PUNK.
The stuff that I'm hearing now...it's like theses guys wanted to write punk music to appeal to 14 year old girls. In that respect, it's very much like going from early 70s heavy metal to the hair-band era of hard rock. How the hell do you go from Black Sabbath to Winger? The result was darker more raw music came about....the whole seattle thing...and hair-metal was wiped off.
That's what's going to happen...emo's going face it's untimly death by being taken over by the next evolution in punk.
Don't get me wrong..I like all kinds of music...partial to the metal thing, but that's because I grew up listening to the fore-fathers of metal and thier fore-fathers as well.
