Does anybody like these new "green day " esque bands?

[New Rose]

Green Day is good.

I have heard lots of emo bands, cant say I like it. But let everyone like what they want, if you dont like it just dont listen to it.

[The Sandman]

I'll keep it a simple 'no'

[metallic ko]

I don't pay any attention to new bands.

I hate Simple Plan with a passion. The best thing to come from them was the music for 'If I Die Tomorrow' because the lyrics are pretty piss-poor. They go for that dull, generic, 'no-one understands me' approach to lyrics in most of their songs.

I didn't say they weren't.

BTW 'If I Die Tomorrow' is a Motley Crue song. Simple Plan wrote it, but the producer for their album said it was too heavy for them, so it was given to Motley Crue.

Simple Plan are still gay.

None of the bands that've been mentioned are "Green Day-esque" at all. Copying Green Day was en vogue in the late 90's, a couple examples would be Blink 182 and New Found Glory.

I would say Blinks a whole lot more pop than green day ever was IMO. I like Blink 182

I like a few songs too, what I meant is they went through the door Green Day opened.

Ohh okay, yeah definently I agree there.

[ChineseDemocracy]

i used to like Green Day when i first started buying CDs when I was about 9 or 10 years old (about 12 years ago) back when they were 'different' and really on the cutting edge, and I was actually a fan up until about the album after Dookie, then i realized that the songs were pretty much the same.

i started looking for something different and drifted apon rock music.

Green Day are maybe the 2nd best band to come out of the 90's.

in bizzaro world maybe.

Billie Joe is a brilliant songwriter, and the bass and drum work really is excellent.

Well that's an opinion (which I happen to disagree with), and even if you believe that you think they were the 2nd best band of the 90's? No way.

Who were better than them, who were more influential? Who created songs as catchy and memorable as them? Who brought their style of music back into focus? I don't care if they were only ever shopping mall punk. I'm sick of people saying "Green Day aren't real punk, the Sex Pistols sang about real issues", the thing is we had hair metal making everything sound all swell and fun, then we had grunge whining and whining and whining, and Green Day came along and sang about what we were really feeling, but instead of whining about it, they weren't dourist, they brought the fun back into mainstream rock. In the 90's we had songs like "Smells Like Teen Spirit" & "Jeremy" being such huge hits, then Green Day came along and added much needed humor and light-heartedness into the mix, and created some of the best music from the 90's, we need lyrics like:

"Do you have the time to listen to me whine

About nothing and everything all at once

I am on of those

Melodramatic fools

Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes i give myself the creeps

Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

It all keeps adding up

I think I'm cracking up

Am I just paranoid?

Am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink

To analyze my dreams

She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down

I went to a whore

He said my live's a bore

And quit no whining cause it's bringing her down"

And now with Green Day going all bloody political and crap on us, we need them back, or we need another band to come up with something as funny and light hearted as that.

Those lyrics suck. Alice In Chains is probly the best band of the 90's. I hate how everyone thinks they're grunge just because they came form Seattle. Just like people thought GnR were glam just because they came from Hollywood. AIC was so far from grunge it's not even funny.

Aint found a way to kill me yet

Eyes burn with stinging sweat

Seems every path leads me to nowhere

Wife and kids household pet

Army green was no safe bet

The bullets scream to me from somewhere

Here they come to snuff the rooster

Yeah here come the rooster, yeah

You know he aint gonna die

No, no, no, ya know he aint gonna die

Walkin tall machine gun man

They spit on me in my home land

Gloria sent me pictures of my boy

Got my pills gainst mosquito death

My buddys breathin his dyin breath

Oh God please wont you help me make it through

Here they come to snuff the rooster

Yeah here come the rooster, yeah

You know he aint gonna die

No, no, no ya know he aint gonna die

Word. Whilst they may have been 'influental', 'experimental' and 'insert other word used to describe the crap they pump out', it's one age range - early to mid teens. That's it. Their catchment area. It doesn't appeal to different age ranges over different cultures.

I really don't think their production from 1999 onwards is the sort you hear on Kerplunk and Dookie.

More money, more commericialised. Face it, I don't even like 'em, and they sold out.
