emo sucks
how dare you call that punk?
-
its not emo...if you heard some of their other songs you would not call them emo...they are punk but they do scream in that song, but i still like it
i just like the way they put God into their music, thanks for listening anyways mm
-
i\'m sorry i clicked the link
if i could take back my internet cookie, i would
they should change thier name to dashboard confessional and get it over with
-
ok...do you try to be a pain in the butt mm?
-
hmmm...not my type of music but i clicked on the link nontheless to help you out there...and don\'t mind mm he may be grumpy but he means well...most of the time....
-
haha...yeah (most of the time)
your avatar is disturbing by the way, but i am a girl so...
and thank you!!
-
mm is really an old fogey, thats not even close to the emo genre in the slightest... Its just pop punk... Sounds like a bunch of Relient K knockoffs...
-
I don\'t want to hear Christian music at Warped Tour so I\'m not getting involved.
-
christian punk... thats such an oxymoron
-
Pop punk needs to die, then again, so does the warped tour....
-
Dogwood is a good Christian punk band.
christian punk... thats such an oxymoron
Everything nowadays is an oxymoron. It\'s just a freaking genre of music. Just because you listen to punk, or play punk music doesn\'t mean you have to live your life to the "punk" lifestyle. That\'s just silly. Get over it.
Norma Jean is an awesome Christian hard rock band, but it may be a little too hard for some people\'s taste.

No! I wont get over it!

Just listened to it. It\'s like Eminem to me. They\'re good at what they do but I just HATE it. I can\'t relate to it and they manipulate their voices and image to look like something they\'re not. Especiially that punk accent, putting 2-3 extra syllables at the end of the last word in a verse. ie- instead of saying "you" they say "yoouuwoouuhh."
BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH
-
yeah, dave (singer) actually talks like that too, we are pretty good friends actually
i hate how he sings in one of their songs, its like instead of he-ad, he goes heeeyyyead but thats like the only song that i notice it in
-
Yeah..... This isnt punk.
I kinda agree with THX to a small extent. They can play, more or less, but i cant stand the music. I guess you just.....
ok f*** it. Im too tired to be helpful and thought provoking.
Its not punk. I hate the whiny voices and voice fluctuations that this "genre" is characterized by etc etc. Other than that, im not getting in it.
Pardon my lack of tolerance at this moment.

are you tired or drunk

I dont drink.
Im just tired and irritated.

Christian Punk.Pffft.I dislike it when religion is used like that.
-
Used like what? They sing a few songs about God, so what? How is it any different than shitty metal bands and whatnot singing about the devil?
People are so touchy about religion and just because something even has a dash of it, it automatically becomes tainted.
-
Listening to 1/4th of a song for the first time isn\'t the best way to judge it, but I don\'t think it was that bad.

I saw the word "Christian Punk"
Chistianism has lost its meaning with this kind of labeling.I amannoyied when I see religion being used like that.Its lost in corruption unfortunately.
As for the devil and blah blah I dont like shity metal bands that refer to the devil either as they are corrupting many people.But atleast no good meaning loses its true meaning.And who cares if satanism is corrupted or done right or wrong?
Christianity teaches all things that people want to mimic in order to do the good thing.Thus many want to follow it.But it also has a deeper meaning.When Christianity is used like that(and especially in politics) its corrupted more people follow a corrupted Chrisianity thinking they are doing it right
-
There is just way too much of this music going around right now and this band offers more of the same old same old. High school. Girls. Breaking up. Whatever. I don\'t care. I\'m sick of power chords and whiny lead singers. Where is the innovation here?

hmmm...i see what you mean uni...but this can also be used as a way to get young people to listen to god or to get them into learning about him..example DEanna...well maybe she just likes them from the jump...i\'ve seen on tv the other day how there was this church that was using rap to teach about god...even tho the good intent is there, as far as trying to get the younger people into it, this doesn\'t work for me, there\'s a time and place for everything... tho i can see the reasoning behind it....
-
Christian Punk.
Aahhahahahaha.
-
Hey Uni, it\'s actually the other way around. Punk is the one that loses it\'s meaning in that little duo.
-
hehe whatever that too :p
-
I don\'t like Punk music. I don\'t like this stuff either. Sorry. :nerd:
-
Punk is rolling over in its grave.
Ugh...
*listens to Black Flag, the exploited & subhumans
-
geez...did ANYBODY like it?

I second that.
-
Unicron doesn\'t undersand what Christian Punk is. He is taking each word and applying them from a literal standpoint.
Its just a "punk" sound, with "Christian" lyrics. Nothing more, nothing less.
-
And it is a joke, at best.
-
yeah well i talked to the lead singer tonight and he said even if they went the would probably get booed off the stage...:(
turns out the people at the tour dont like christian music very much :(
-
Ya think.
-
Oh god, they\'re terrible. His voice is just too fucking annoying to get anything from the song.
-
Are they like 13-14?
People usualy don\'t make good music at that age.
So uhhh...
Tell him to stop being a suck-face.
-
Yeah what a god loving suck face.
-
Sorry but no this doesn\'t do it for me.
they sound too much like dashboard confessional. I\'m really into Emo and this isn\'t emo by any means. this is NOT punk either, this is pink shoelace, collar up pop. Emo is better than this.

It\'s garbage! DeAnna, stop listening to that damn jesus music! Or atleast listen to real Jesus music.

They probably would get booed.
Relient K is on Warped though, and I have a feeling they won\'t get booed, primarily because they don\'t really deliver a strong Christian message at all... They just label themselves as a "Christian" band.

Considering the crowd they are playing for? Kids want to hear their regular mainstream punk without having to hear about Jesus.

I totally agree with you.
Religion in general is just a way to make money now adays. It\'s become a widespread commercial thing. No longer is religion something you felt inside, something you went to church for every sunday. Now, religion can be whatever the hell you want it to be. Instead of the people changing for their believes. They change the religion in order to fit their lifestyle. And that is why we have so many Christian denominations.
Fuck all that nonsense. Just give me a Common Sense by Thomas Paine and that is about as religious as I\'m going to get.
About the song. I don\'t really care for siding with a particular brand of music. I listen to whatever sounds good. As long as it doesn\'t get to preachy. I really didn\'t listen to the song, but they sound like any other band out there. No difference to me. But it was good, no doubt about that.
Now excuse me while I go listen to Manson.
-
Goes and listens to DC talk.....
take that bitches
-
DC Talk broke up like 5 years ago...but Toby Mac is still awesome. He\'s old now, but I met him a little while back.
He actually scheduled an after-concert for after a concert that like 4000 people were at, for only 200 people and asked F15 (the band that nobody in this thread likes) to open for him. It was awesome, and I got to go to it!! But, they didn\'t get signed like we all had thought they were going to.
(sorry if that doesnt make sense^)
-
Deanna..... hasnt anyone ever told you there is a better us for those lips than to just keep FLAPING THEM.
-
ye...........no they haven\'t and how do you know i can even talk? we are on a message board. i could be a mute. :)
