And I never said TWY were objectively awful. Theyre decent at best and I said that there were 90s Pop Punk albums that were more raw and interesting than their stuff, thats literally all I had to say about their stuff. I actually dug them a lot when I was 13/14 but they didnt hold up as well as other stuff I listened to did.

Also, keep in mind that nobody ever told anyone here that they are stupid/have shit taste for enjoying something.



There's a difference between shitting on an artist's music (acceptable) and shitting on people who dislike said artist's music (unacceptable)

For instance, I personally think the Hotelier are a shitstain on the music scene, but I am also sure that a lot of people who enjoy them are very nice and fun to hang out with.

pika. how many minutes of your life have you spent telling people on this very review thread that The Hotelier is poop. Go back and look through the previous pages if you need a reminder. You know the distinction I'm making here, stop acting like you don't. Chiming in for a discussion and explaining your opinion is perfectly fine. But doing it literally every goddamn time we want to talk about this band is childish.



love you but you're being a silly goose right now

whoaaaaa alexis back up. you said "Punk has definitely been in a shitty area", not "hasnt been at its best". Major difference there. Obviously punk will never be like it was in the 70s & 80s, but that doesn't mean it's shitty now

Yeah, I'm shitposting, butt. Circlejerks get boring.



Like, if you take the threads I bump with albums I have rated highly, the best response you ever get is m/ or rules m/ or yeah, that song is cool.



This gets way more reaction and at least some kind of discussion going. Or threads where you start ranking albums in a contrarian way.

"yes it does"



It doesnt. You can make this argument for almost every genre or scene. Outliers exist everywhere.

I bumped nearly every Opeth album last week and got practically no replies - until mr parksungjoon started shitposting, bless him. It's the way sput seems to operate.

Where did I ever say that Punk from the 90s and early 2000s is bad. Literally listed off albums from the 2000s that I liked.



"you said "Punk has definitely been in a shitty area", not "hasnt been at its best". Major difference there."



Really? Gonna be pedantic about this?

or maybe you're making a blanket assessment of an entire, far-reaching genre filled with countless bands across the world based on maybe several hundred records you've heard out of the thousands and thousands that have been made

"but if i havent heard about it, it's most likely not worth hearing about"? imagine actually believing that prominent online publications and english-language music community sites have a monopoly on all the great music in the world. or imagine believing that your knowledge on a genre is so comprehensive that you can confidently belittle a whole decade and a half worth of music

homie come on there is a major fundamental difference in those two statements. saying "it hasn't been at it's best" I 100% agree with. Saying "it's been shitty for a decade and a half" I 0% agree with. that aint pedantic.

I love a lot of modern punk but if we're being technical, I think lately 70s through mid 90s was peak for the genre.

So im not allowed to make an opinion until ive literally heard every single Punk album from the past 10 years? Opinions are based on peoples individual impressions, this is completely pointless.



...I literally do not think this site has a monopoly on anything. What the fuck are you going about. I have been listening to Pop Punk and Punk in general for longer than ive been on this site. I was super into a lot of Pop Punk from this decade when I was 13/14 and I dug through blogs and recommendations to find pretty obscure stuff. My time during this site has been like 2 years. How are you even saying this when my list of early 2000s Pop Punk albums had some very lesser known picks. How do you extrapolate me saying that relevancy matters out of my negative opinions on a scene.



I am not saying that my knowledge is so comprehensive, I am literally just stating my own impressions.
