Unpopular Entertainment Opinions • Page 456

there is definitely a shortage of people defending pop punk

 

no i wasnt joking

 

Tetra doesnt post outside the entertainment section on the forum so we have to talk to him here about his food opinions

 

everyone was talking about fries like 2 posts up

 

did chorus get hyped when corn kid went viral?

 

this actually does need to go to the music version of the thread though, we don't discuss pop punk here

 

i’m on my phone and there’s no way to access the thread search in mobile mode

 

Pop punk kinda blows.

 

i like corn kid.

 

koyo is a decent pop punk band

 

The hate for the genre is definitely overblown, specifically on here, but I think that’s more posters overcompensating over being embarrassed about their taste when they were younger. Ironically, a lot of the pop punk bands people are rabid for on this site are the ones with the shittiest people in/associated with them.

 

maybe corn kid will start a pop punk band one day

 

Yeah and then put a rapist in his side project

 

I never liked pop punk that much but it was way better than nu-metal.

 

similarly there’s a complete overcorrection on the love of nu metal (not just here - it’s a weird barstool sports/right wing college kid thing too). Bands had good songs. Korn’s Got the Life is an all timer. The revisionist history on the genre as a whole is odd, though. A lot was trash

 

Nah.

 

I was also kidding about this.

 

The revival of Creed is the worst part.

 

I listened to Toxicity yesterday on a whim and it was awesome.

 

I enjoy nu metal a lot as a genre, but a decent amount of bands with big radio hits in the early ‘00s had spotty discographies beyond the singles. Like it’s a chore listening through an entire Trust Company or Taproot or Limp Bizkit album

 

Solid album

 

I love Taproot

 

tbf I don't think Fred, Wes et Al were entering the studio saying time to put our heart and soul into the tracklist of our magnum opus Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water

like so many albums you listen to and it's like yeah they never expected you to listen to anything but the singles

 

people in here defending nu metal
