Why was the other one closed?

Gorilla Biscuits wins this.

Electrocution · 10-30-2005, 01:57 PM

I vote for The Killers because without them there would be no Joy Division.

***morrissey*** · 10-30-2005, 04:47 PM

You're thinking of the Editors.

lilsolsman · 10-30-2005, 05:18 PM

Without Boyzone there wouldn't be no Backstreet Boys or Westlife.

So, yea, them.

Bukowski · 10-30-2005, 05:26 PM

But without DJ Sammy, we'd have no Kraftwerk. So they win, idiot.

The Great Decay · 10-30-2005, 05:27 PM

But without 50 cent, there would be no DJ Sammy. Think about it.

That's about as stupid as saying My Chemical Romance didn't invent emo.

No MCR = No 50 Cent

But without the two of them, we'd have no wannabe emo bands like Rites of Spring.

The Great Decay · 10-30-2005, 05:35 PM

That's the truth. But then again.. we wouldn't have emo at all if Simple Plan didn't start punk.

*Dave de Sylvia* · 10-30-2005, 05:36 PM

S'hit, you're right.

Bands like Black Flag, Minor Threat, Wire and Dead Kennedys really piss me off! They're basically just copying Simple Plan, except their lyrics don't have all the subtle political metaphors Simple Plan filled theirs with. Nothing annoys me more than Jello Biafra on stage singing about how he's addicted to some girl. Fukking wannabes!

Daniel! · 10-30-2005, 05:47 PM

This thread is getting pretty ridiculous.

***YDload*** · 10-30-2005, 05:58 PM

When Simple Plan sings about world affairs and socio-political turmoil, they ensconce their messages with clever metaphors about girls and teen angst. Dead Kennedys just puts it too bluntly and matter-of-fact, which really decreases the power of their "messages" which they just copied from SP anyway.

I agree. The way Simple Plan crafts all of their songs to sound nearly identical also helps convey the message.
