Ska? Emo?

Lostprophets is the best representative of screamo currently. They're a modern form of "The Used."

 

...how can a current band be a modern form of another current band?

...that's what I was gonna say


I think Lostprophets have more of a metal influence then most screamo too...

 

Lostprophets aren't screamo. Lostprophets are punk metal.

... :wth:

 

So you know what to expect from a band. That's not my opinion, just the general saying y'know.

Yes they do. Their influences are old classics, bands like Iron Maiden, Metallica, Pantera, etc.

 

that's an oxymoron.

Punk died along time ago. There is no band active today that is true punk.

Last time I checked, punk music was agressive, not emotional. (ie: Last Train Home)

I classify them as Hard Rock. Not an insult, I like plenty of Hard Rock..

 

ahhh!!! so many types of music!! i just found out there was a genere called.... "oi!" (apparently a form of punk) from my sister who's a ska and emo fan. and when i found out that Manson and Slipknot aren't metal they're " shock rock" what's the difference?! rock is rock!

 

What about the Casualties? The US Bombs? STUN?

I'm not trying to argue, I just want your opinion on why these aren't punk bands

Lostprophets are punk metal. Old limpbizkit were classified punk metal too, before the nu metal term was invented.

 

There both sub-genres of punk. Ska is basically punk with horns and trumpits. Emo is basically punk for crybabies and pussies.

PUNK ISNT DEAD

 

wouldn't have said that if i were you... :wth:

 

*warned*

Uhoh, no powers

 

Ska's been around longer then punk

From http://www.faqs.org/faqs/music/ska-faq/part1 :

That was just stupid.

Punk died with the sex pistols
