Yeah, he’s the 30 Seconds To Mars frontman. I’ve only heard that one song from them.

Wait which agreement are you referring to – cuz I do agree about rip-off new bands. … You know when I really couldn’t stand to hear Green Day? When Darci (ask Jen) started “singing” their songs all the time. God, why can’t people hear themselves?!?

No need to agree, the world would be a boring place if that were the case.

I also don’t watch any MTV and avoid old school radio like the plague. Sirius satellite radio on the other hand, is pretty damn decent.

I haven’t heard of the Jared Leto thing, isn’t that an actor’s name?

I would agree with you that muchos bands maintenant sound like crappy rip offs. But that would explain why I don’t listen to the radio, watch MTV or generally have any knowledge of current pop music. I don’t think we need a million bands pushing the “white boy” sound anyway. Those voices make me wanna clear their nasal passages. With a shotgun. … Love that Jared Leto band single, on another note. Sure, he’s a little touched in the head but that song is awesome. Yesterday? What’s it called? What’s this got to do with anything? Oh, well it’s kinda current, right?

No, the bandwagon is about the consumers not the artists. Part of the reason I didn’t feel ooky about loving Bush so much is that “true Nirvana fans” (insert barf) completely denied their awesomeness and always accused them of biting, which is funny because I couldn’t ever stand crapfest Cobain. Ever. For never. Which… has nothing to do with this blog but I’m tired and tangent-y.

I hated the single American Idiot sooooo…. I just
… don’t like their sound. I’m sorry. It’s out of my control.

I’ll like something else you like and we’ll call it even. :)

Note: Check out the streams I posted in the original blog.

Hmm, but I’d think it would be hard to hate the ones who started the bandwagon going…

NOoooo not that they started punk or anything, it’s all one long chain of descent blah blah. Buuttttt, mucho bands these days are just turning out shitty Green Day knock-offs.

Oh, you should check out the entire American Idiot album…I wouldn’t say it’s punk anymore, but they did manage to create a full fledged rock opera. And it’s GOOD.

I like maybe two Green Day songs. But I have something against angsty things that are bandwagoned. Doesn’t have anything to do with the quality of the artist. It’s me. I’m sorry. Plus if I don’t like the radio songs it’s not really high on my list to listen to the remainder.
