Ok what would you consider a punk band?
Uhm, sorry COFFIN, but Linkin' Park is NOT punk. If anything, they're mainstream rock.
At least now anyway. But with their type of mix rock and rap, they are definitely not punk.
Punk includes stuff like
The Offspring, Against Me!, Anti- Anything, The Aquabats, Beastie Boys, etc. etc.
Linkin Park and any thing that sounds like them or The Ramones.Quote:

They also invented ska basically.
The Sex Pistols were just f'in pissed off at the world and wanted to be in your face and show you want punk was about and they did it amazingly well.
British punk in general is better in my opinion. Its much more hard core.
I'm checking them out on youtube right now.
I've heard of 2cents and wasn't a fan though.
No, you are not going to call Linkin Park rock. They didn't even use full chords till the guitarist was shamed into learn something besides power chord, solos were introduced late after the guitarist learn scales because the general opinion of every other musician was "This kid sucks", they do not classify as rock according to what rock was, maybe the qualify as the terrible shit you people call rock today. I don't listen to no f'in terrible modern punk, but I've heard the Beastie Boys and The Aquabats, they could be punk I don't see them that way because they sound nothing like punk in terms of my definition which is "Do you sound like Iggy Pop?". If any thing I'd call the Beastie Boys a rap group using a guitar and techno sounds.Quote:

Side note: Rock should never be main stream. Mainstream rock is f'in Journey and that f'in sucks. Real rock should be loud and offend you delicate sensibilities. Rock is the devil's music and it always will be.
Side side note(on topic): Definitely not a fan of your metal bands or any modern metal since its all terrible. Its not about any thing the music isn't creative. They turned metal in to heavy punk and screamo and I can't stand that. Metal wasn't a pure rhythmic style originally, it was expressive and required skill rather than just keeping a 16th note beat on a palm muted string and then playing the one exotic scale you know and hammering on a triplet. You want metal? Go pull up Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Dio, Judas Priest, Motley Crew, Motorhead, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot, Ratt, Skid Row, Accept, Sweet, and Extreme. You want sell out metal go listen to Poison. You want metal's origin? Go listen to Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" and "Dazed and Confused".
Sabbath's first CD was the invention of heavy metal. Rainbow, Judas, and Dio took it further and Sabbath caught up and pushed if a bit more. The rest are just from the glory days of metal in all its forms except death/black. Though I'd credit Sabbath and Dio for making it possible for death metal to exist.
Yeah i love all the bands you just posted <3 and yes im also a fan as soon as i read the post title i knew it had to do with death metal.
Nah there not that good yet
So im not a fan
I hate those bands. Metal =/= cool.
Well thanks for all the opinion guys, I know some don't like them and other do.
Just seeing what you guys think about them.
The first is alright. The second I can barely stand. And the third I've never heard.
No. i've never heard of them. I'm more into the old stuff like The doors , Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Metallica, The Offspring. i'll listen to anything between 60's and 90's.
these guys are awesome check out these bands
heaven shall burn
caliban
bleed from within
bring me the horizon
these you might like and they are awesome
The only one I recognize in the list is 2Cents
Ok I will. And I know Bring me the horizon is a amazing band.Quote:
