I have to agree...I like Green Day as much as the next guy, but it's enough. Especially since most of the people asking didn't know who Green Day was before American Idiot came out.

i like them, they are hippies and they are not ashamed with the way they look, i can see you prefer green day crap over real guitar players who can actually play lead guitar, if green day wasn't here to sabotage rock n roll then why is it here, be a little realistic will you, and try to have a little respect to good music even if you don't like it...

personaly i love linkin park, i think they are the best thing since sliced bread! But everyone has different tastes some people like pop, others rock, others classical, etc. I dont know how people can say they hate them really they dislike their music. If they played a different type of music they would appeal to other people. But the fact is they are who they are and no one can change that.

its not just that. when a famous (or not so famous) band comes out with a new song, it is OVERPLAYED!!! and ppl get real tired of it an the artist real quick. so its hard for them to make more than 5 "good" "big" hits...

yeah...i have listened their whole CD. Some of the songs on there are played too much on the radio, but there are some (such as Are We the Waiting and She's a Rebel) that haven't been played on the radio very often. Overall, though, Green Day's songs are pretty awesome!

I am somewhat close to your age, and I know what you mean. The bands today stink, with a few exceptions. I like The Strokes and Modest Mouse. They are the newest bands I've accepted.\n\nIt's hard to realize that we are not the "in-crowd" anymore, we are the grown-ups now. It sucks, but it's also pretty cool, because we got to live in a time where we heard all the great music our parents listened to, plus all the cool stuff that was being made in our day.

I think their music style is unquie, compared to the thrend they are following. (emo?) But I personally don't like them.

Teens don't have bad taste...these bands just aren't mainstream anymore.\n Although nine inch nails will never go out of style for me

It is obvious that you, like myself, are into music as a form of expression, as a form of art. That's why you love rock music, because pure rock isn't about popularity or about commercial successs. It is about expressing your deepest feelings through your songs, baring your innermost thoughts through your musical mastery and skill.\n\nYes, there have been some bands that have utilized rock as a channel to gain popularity and commercial succes, but such outfits have not lasted, confirming that only those bands who actually remain faithful to their musical integrity are those who have been and will be around for decades.\n\nAs for pop, well, it is a totally different animal. I hate pop in general, especially the kind they show on MTV and VH1, it is simply disgusting. But hey, there are some people out there that could care less about skill or musical depth. They are contempt and pleased with the lyrics and catchy rhythms they are offered through these songs. These are the people who buy CD-singles, download a lot of crappy songs only to erased them next week because they either got sick of them or the songs are not hip anymore. Pop music was designed for this kind of people. Although I have to say, in every decade there have been a couple of good pop songs that have outlasted time, but other than that, I think American Idol, its anchors and all of its audience, let it be live or televised, should be thrown to the lions or at least be flamed in public.

I used to love them, but now they stink. Here is the problem with any angry metal band. If they get famous, they get lots of money, then they get wives then kids. After that, the only thing they have to be angry about is typical guy stuff, like taking out the trash, or getting yelled at for leaving the seat up. Those things just dont make for good material when writing angry music.
