To be fair, nowadays "punk" is as broad (and misleading) a term as "emo."

 

Yea, which is one of the reasons I wanted you to not associate it with Panic

I'm all for calling everything alt rock though, seriously.

 

Well, they do have a lot of pop punk influence on their debut album. Not so much at all on their new album though. I generally just call them a pop rock band when I have to define them. Sometimes power pop, sometimes alternative rock.

Then again, I'd rather just call them a rock band.

 

I heard someone use the genre "post-rock" last week.

Can someone explain how something can be post-rock? Worse than mallcore.

 

Huh...? Thats just stupid...

I actually like post-emo for a lot of what's around today, cos its not exactly real emo. But I still wanna call it emo

 

Post-emo?

You used to be cool Harlz.

 

stfu, it makes sense!

It does!

Really!

I swear...

honestly.


Just agree with me, please?

 

The official "Cool 101" rules state that you can't listen to anything that's predominately labelled 'post-something', 'something-emo' or 'something-core'.

 

I hate all the bands Cale likes!

 

Soundgarden? Alice In Chains? Stevie Wonder? Stone Temple Pilots? The Jacksons? The Mars Volta? Jeff Buckley?

You used to be cool Will.

 

Oh I don't listen to it.

Oh no.
God no.

 

Every band you like sucks!

 

Stone Temple Pilots are like, the best grunge band. Period.
Fuck Nirvana and Pearl Jam.

 

Soundgarden & Alice in Chains are superior IMO.

Although I wouldn't class STP as grunge. Grunge as I view it was just the seattle rock scene. Then the word just spiralled out of control to include every rock band that sounded a bit alike.




Every band Will likes have bad hair!

 

Milli Vanilli is the best grunge band ever. amirite?

 

Every band I like are better than every band Cale likes!

Even if we like some of the same bands!

Can a band be better than itself?

 

Soundgarden are quality.

Alice In Chains, I dunno...
Nutshell is a pretty awesome song though.

 

Go look up "Am I Inside", "Brother", "Got Me Wrong", "Whale & Whasp" and perhaps "Shame In You"

Layne Staley & Jerry Cantrell were a once in a lifetime rock vocal combination.

 

Half the bands of today wouldn't be around if it weren't for Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell.

 

Soundgarden so fucking good, they're actually better than Soundgarden.
