RowdyMoon Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Not realy, punk was supposed to be about attitude...punksters ran with it and messed it up but original punk was about tude an irony would have it just like anything else, they all end up looking the same trying to show how differant they were...kinda like how teenagers invented cool.

Buxom Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 But really, all screamo seems to be is a bunch of whiny teens with drop tuned ESP/LTD/or BC Rich guitars, EMGs, angrily tight jeans (nothing wrong with tightness, but not angry, ball-to-ovary-conversion tight) and even more meaningless lyrics. Basically, if every screamo band broke up, actual artists would have a chance to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try not to. But when you go to a school where all you're exposed to for 8 hours a day is this, you get tired of it. I'm just sick of seeing it and hearing it blasted through iPod speakers all day.

Very true, if you like it, then that is all that matters . That being said, to the original question I don't think it's the same as punk but I guess punk has had a major influence on it tho.

DAS44 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Listening to a mockery of music itself is stooping to my level. gf n00b Bud, you need to cool it with the attitude. First off, the word you used in your first post (it began with an f, but I am loath to repeat it) is never acceptable. It's prohibited for a reason, it is a derogatory term used completely incorrectly (don't get into the history of the word, we all know that by now). In short, cut it out, that sort of profanity is prohibited for a reason. Secondly, that sort of arrogant elitism is a big part of the reason I dropped out of activity here for a long while. I do not want such an intolerant, and ignorant environment promoted here. I think I can safely say we try to promote a friendly, accepting, and helpful environment here, and that sort of invective is exactly what I try to diffuse. You have every right to your opinion, but you seriously need to learn to word it respectfully. If you don't... I fear your tenure here might be cut short. This is not your playground, this is a forum of people who for the most part are of an age exceeding either of ours. I don't want you to think I'm hating on you, I'm not, I merely find some of your posts particularly distasteful. ______________________ Now, on topic... I'd place screamo more in the metal category Steve. I'd say punk and the aforementioned are a far cry from each other, though I can see a slight similarity. Scremo itself isn't quite my thing! Admittedly I might be more apt to name it a derivative of punk if I was fond of it at all, considering my Clash (not exclusively Clash of course :P) fandom... Perhaps if I was a more avid listener I could make more musical connections between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searcy Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Some say that punk was just a bunch of profoundly ugly guys with limeted talent trying to get laid. Clearly the deep meaningful lyrics prove otherwise. "Rock N Roll High School" Well I don't care about history Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school 'Cause that's not where I wanna be Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school I just wanna have some kicks I just wanna get some chicks Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school Well the girls out there knock me out, you know Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school Cruisin' around in my GTO Rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school I hate the teachers and the principal Don't wanna be taught to be no fool Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock'n'roll high school Fun fun rock'n'roll high school Fun fun rock'n'roll high school Fun fun rock'n'roll high school Fun fun, oh baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikekefr Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 No, screamo is a bunch of faggots thinking they're original and that their music is good. Punk is a bunch of faggots doing the wrong things the right way. Next question. (for the record, I'm a huge punk fan. I considered this thread highly disrespectful. my whole reason for the "******" overdose is because I have to meet my daily quota for use of the word) LOL Buxom, what is it w/ the younger generation losin thier mind over someone else's music taste or opinions? At the end of the day,there will be music played of every genre by numerous age groups,some laid back,some screaming till thier jugulars pop out thier necks,there is no wrong music,just the people that criticize others taste or lack thereof because others dont think like they do.As ive told you before,i personally cuss like a sailor in RL,but there is no place for that here,i thought the metallica/beatles convo was a perfect example??????

ChanMan Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 i think it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z293tG4-488&feature=related I think you're right, and it's a brilliant observation. However, as my kids have all found out, you cannot "freak the father" with your musical interests, for he will accept your music, find examples that he likes, and share them right back . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR7dG_m3MsI&ob=av3n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanMan Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Bud, you need to cool it with the attitude. 14 is such an angst filled year, DAS. Just remember that the best way to deal with children throwing tantrums is to deny them the attention they are craving... negative or otherwise.
