is Green Day punk or emo?
neither
then what are they?
sellouts?
you can’t really classify most shit anymore that’s punk/pop/emo
I would say pop punk I guess.
yeah, well someone over at the killbill forums was getting pretty pissed when someone started calling Green Day emo or whatever
[quote]Ahem. Let me elaborate. First, I can understand that Yuki likes Blink182, and we’ve gone around on that before, so I pay no mind to the categorization. But, you think that Blink will last longer than Green Day, and that Green Day are too pop is fucking ridiculous. First, Green Day has been around for 16 years, which makes them older than you. They have evolved much like The Clash did (The what?, you ask), and have remained true to their Bay Area punk roots, unlike Blink182, who have earned a level of hatred from the punk community rivaling that of Good Charlotte, after their horrible Enema of the State release. As for Green Day being too pop, well, it’s hard to refute something that is simply the oppostie of the truth. And to say such in comparison to Blink 182, makes you either deaf or a fucking moron.[/quote]

they aren’t emo and they aren’t punk, and if you like their music then good for you and you shouldn’t give a shit about their label.
hmmmm yeah i dont really like them that much, but i was just curious
