Nowadays, I put them in my own class I call "poser rock." It's the kind of music little poser "punk" or "goth" kids listen to while crying about their petty little problems.

punk is depressing to some people, so punk rock would be a good choice.

Green Day: Better vocals, better lyrics, and better instrumentals. Plus Green Day has much more experience. They were around way before "Dookie" doing the punk scene, before Blink 182 was even together. Not that I don't like Blink182. They are ok..just no comparison when it comes to Green Day.

Categorizing music from today's culture seems to become harder and harder with the release of each album.  We hear terms like "Country Rock, Adult Alternative, and Gangster Rap."  Every time you place a label on an album or artist someone else comes up with another label.\n\nAs for Green Day, given the two options you posted I would have to say Alternative Rock is the best fit.  Punk rock tends to have less vocals and strains more on the bands skills.  Alternative music consists of more rhythmic vocals and tunes.\n\nHope that helps.

go back to the beginning. the first real punk band. the clash. the album is called london calling. they were the first. the punk of today is more neo punk. it is too stupid. punk had an important message in thier songs. it was more than just being rebllious. it was about being a free thinker bout being anti establishment for real reasons and about wantin gto bring about change and awareness not just dressing funny and dissing britney. go retro.

green day is the best band ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. and they have been a band for 16 years. Green Day were part of the northern California underground punk scene. Childhood friends Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, vocals) and Mike Dirnt (bass; born Mike Pritchard) formed their first band, Sweet Children, in Rodeo, CA, when they were 14 years old. By 1989, the group had added drummer Al Sobrante and changed its name to Green Day. That year, the band independently released its first EP, 1,000 Hours, which was well-received in the California hardcore punk scene. Soon, the group had signed a contract with the local independent label, Lookout. Green Day's first album, 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hour, was released later that year. Shortly after its release, the band replaced Sobrante with Tre Cool (born Frank Edwin Wright, III); Cool became the band's permanent drummer.\n\nThroughout the early '90s, Green Day continued to cultivate a cult following, which only gained strength with the release of their second album, 1992's Kerplunk. The underground success of Kerplunk led to a wave of interest from major record labels; the band eventually decided to sign with Reprise. Dookie, Green Day's major-label debut, was released in the spring of 1994. Thanks to MTV support for the initial single, "Longview," Dookie became a major hit. The album continued to gain momentum throughout the summer, with the second single, "Basket Case," spending five weeks on the top of the American modern rock charts. At the end of the summer, the band stole the show at Woodstock '94, which helped the sales of Dookie increase. By the time the fourth single, "When I Come Around," began its seven-week stay at number one on the modern rock charts in early 1995, Dookie had sold over five million copies in the U.S. alone; it would eventually top eight million in America, selling over ten million copies internationally. Dookie also won the 1994 Grammy for Best Alternative Music Performance.\n\nGreen Day quickly followed Dookie with Insomniac in the fall of 1995; during the summer, they hit number one again on the modern rock charts with "J.A.R.," their contribution to the Angus soundtrack. Insomniac performed well initially, entering the U.S. charts at number two, and selling over two million copies by the spring of 1996, yet none of its singles — including the radio favorite "Brain Stew/Jaded" — were as popular as those from Dookie. In the spring of 1996, Green Day abruptly canceled a European tour, claiming exhaustion. Following the cancellation, the band spent the rest of the year resting and writing new material, issuing Nimrod in late 1997. Their long-awaited follow-up, a refreshingly poppy record titled Warning, was released three years later. Another long wait preceded 2004's American Idiot, an aggressive rock opera that became a surprise success — a chart-topper around the world, a multi-platinum seller, and easily the best reviewed album of their career. Green Day reveled in the album's success, hitting numerous award shows and performing as part of Live 8 in July 2005. That fall brought Bullet and a Bible, which documented the trio's expansive Idiot live show. \nlol. i absolutely love billie joe armstrong!!!!!!!!!!!! he's the hottest man alive!!!! and he's the lead singer of the best band ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think i know billie better than he knows himself. i'm going to write a secondary autobiography on his life.

I listen to the Green Day.  I'm a little more fond of their older albums, though.  American Idiot is good, don't get me wrong...I just like the classics...I guess.

Greenday used to be a very good punk rock band.\nUnfortunatly they've turned very commercial now in a bid to improve sales (seeing as they're last album was appalling)\nIf you want to hear Greenday at their best listen to their Kerplunk! or Dookie albums\n\nThey're music is easy to play because it uses simple chord progressions as you said and only very basic open or power chords. Also, Billie Joe Armstrong is hardly a guitar virtuoso is he? It's the golden rule of punk: maximum effect within minimun effort\n\nOh and the definition of a power chord as I know it is the root note of a chord played along with the dominant 5th note
