Come on...

I can agree with the NOFX and the Bad Religion but the other stuff is just so fluffy and cute. I blame those other bands for atrocities like Blink 182.

I like my punk old and dirty.

What a coincidence! I like my photographers old and dirty as well!! Punk is made by musicians with no talent, ambition or thought. METAL FOREVER!!

Talent comes in many forms. My mom would say that Dream Theater sucks.

Some people hate Rush because it's a musical jerk-off of technical talent.

Some people say that the Clash is too simple to have any talent.

If the music I listen to moves me I won't care if it was 3 chords, or 125 instruments run through some effects processor and played by this year's "most talented" guitar virtuoso. Steve Vai is a guitar god but his shit doesn't do anything for me.

Any Stiff Little Fingers song makes the hair on my arms stand up and all they played were power chords.

Faster isn't always better. Example: sex.

Hmm, OpIvy was pretty good. Rancid is just okay.

I can't blame them for Blink 182.

The Beatles fucking rock. Listen to the song Helter Skelter and then deny it.

Man, you gotta have either big balls or a deathwish to dis the Beattles and call Sarge a faggot in one sentence. Chris knows how to make friends (go away).
Bad Religion is a band, nothing more. Wow, they say something, that's cool, I can dig it. I like them and all, but they aren't anything revolutionary. Just as Quincy Jones and others combined pop with jazz, Bad Religion simply added punk to what it was reacting to(pop). Not a Beattles fan, but I'd have to say that Morrisy sounds kinda gay to me.
Tzim, don't bring moms into this, man...HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!
