These guys are FAKE punks. Green Day are the true kings of punk rock. Rottencells stay mad.

"Real Emo" only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta. Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE

After watching a documentary about their story, their music really clicked me, they were my first punk band really but I started to dislike them because they were kind of fake punk with tons of punk bands existing prior to them and kind of sounding better and more authentic than their manufactured image, but they still gave rise to punk in the UK and were still very influential with their fashion and attitude Sex Pistols first gig was in 1975, and they are the sole reason Joy Division, the Smiths and the Fall exist, you gotta give credit where it´s due, really cool band and I wouldn´t call them fake punks anymore because of all these reasons. Their sound is more aggressive being faster glam rock alas New York Dolls with a hard rock edge than what I normally like in punk, but I still respect them a lot now.

i have a couple typos here and there because i wrote this really fast but TL;DR: People who call them a fake punk band and say they are lame because of that are dumb, they still kick a lot of ass. (Also this is a weird argument because the Clash are also manufactured but no one really talks about that)

They captured the anger of a specific time incredibly… but how are they better than the Dead Kennedy’s or Minor Threat?

Definitely agreed, Punlio. I think what also makes them the best as far as I'm concerned was their attitude of total disrespect and lack of self-righteousness, which I feel adds to the punk essence/mentality/ethos if you will, unlike the bands mentioned by nfopuhfxir (in which a good portion of their fans like them, because a lot of those people like to display self-righteous themselves).

Sorry, didn't get to this comment until now cause I don't check notifications. Did you ever see GoodFellas? It's awesome. I would also recommend Blade Runner, Taxi Driver, The Doom Generation, The Departed, Hot Fuzz, Kill Bill, & The Social Network. My taste is movies is pretty varied but those are ones I would recommend to most people.

Congratulations on posting the most poignant, subtle and original tjoke of the year. Unfortunately, you and another user both posted this "14 hours ago" (see the shoutbox of the song) so I can't say which of you geniuses was first. But we'll bloody done!

My favorite punk band of all time. I know it sounds cliché, but the Sex Pistols are my favorite punk band.

Also theyre not really ass they had a huge impact on music history. Theyre not as good as The Clash or some of the other better bands to come out of the punk movement but theyre great.
