Does it ever annoy you to hear people like Avril or Ashlee Simpson called "punk?" It really ticks me off. Or hearing bands like Good Charlotte or Blink 182 [I love them] being called punk? I can't stand it! I'm saying this on behalf of one of the latest xanga skins. I know its just a label, but its human nature to label. But sometimes you just need to get the name right. And if your not sure, don't say anything.

Whoa settle down tiger. I got your back, but it is not punk at all to label anyone. Besides, being emo is much more fun. heh

But yeah, because I HATE posers, I never label myself anything, I just label myself an Artisic Mexican-American who loves all types of music...actually, 4get that...I HATE labeling  ! Labeling sux cuz ur never true 2 just that label...ex., U may be a "rocker" whose 2nd love is hip-hop or sumthing. See U can't just be labeled cuz it's just a part of U, not all of U. BUt yeah...that's just me  .

I hate the label "punk" If you were truly "punk" then you wouldn't call yourself punk.
I absolutely hate Avril Lavigne and Ashley Simpson. They piss me off

I know some hardcore punk people and they will tell you that both Blink and GC are not punk. |

I find it better to just except music instead of trying to label it, because isn't it almost every bands intention to come out with a new sound?

why do people care so much if somone is labeled? so avril is labeled punk. so what? punk has branched out to so many styles now its impossible to make valid points on being punk and what not. so cant we all just listen to music and not punk/rap/rnb/hip hop/pop punk/metal punk/emo punk etc

get the frick over it and stop whining. yeah, they're not so punk. your point? maybe other people think they are. it depends how you interpret the music.
also, we've had a bunch of threads on this subject. please don't remake threads. |

almost all of you guys are being stereotypical, and i dont mean to offend anyone... but EVERYONE labels EVERYTHING. someone who listens to hip hop and rap "isn't allowed" to wear pants decorated with buckles and zippers. they would be labeled a "poser". and all this good charlotte, ashley simpson, avril lavigne business... they all dress in the "punk" style of clothing, but their music is more pop-rock than anything. the definition of punk is actually someone who is a rebel, who goes against the mainstream. Nowadays, the word "punk" describes someone who is a mainstream rocker...
just listen to the music you like and forget what the media has labeled it as... who cares if its punk or not?? |

Look at those punk rockers" or "EWWW! Look at those thugs & their hip-hop! Those hip-hop hoodlums!", that's wut I mean by I hate labeling. Like labeling sumone just cuz they like sumthing to the core. And wut I mean by I hate posers is that they try 2 be like those "punk rockers" & those "Hip-hopers", as they would call them, just cuz they think it's "cool", and all of a sudden change their old ways & their old self just 2 be part of that group. Like there wuz this chick that I used 2 see whe I used 2 go 2 highskool, like the first semester, she wuz a "rocker" cuz all her friends were "rockers". Then She changed friends, and tried 2 dress all "ghetto hip-hop" cuz her "new friends" dressed that way. U don't have 2 change urself 2 make friends...and this is a PERFECT example of a poser, cuz now she's in the "rockabilly" (as they would call it) stage, & I just think that's so stoopid. Now U didn't have 2 use such a strong word as "hate" cuz U don't even knoe me...and I'm tempted 2 say "biotch" cuz I'm listening 2 old skool Snoop, but I don't mean it. Does that clear up things a little better now person that hates me??? |
