So I'm apparently the singer for a punk-rock band now

RE: So I'm apparently the singer for a punk-rock band now
Punk's whole thing is that you have to not be popular to be popular with the punk crowd. It's a whole contradictory set of convoluted success measurement, where if one can successfully balance being famous with appearing to not be famous and yet still making money while appearing to notmake money, you can get popular with the layman and the punks.

tl;dr: Anything that's not punk-rock is punk-rock to punk-rock. Tongue

It's a fun genre to experiment and mess around with, haha For the record, I still think The Offspring are cool as hell, but Green Day went really pop and turned itself inside out. It's basically despised by punk-rockers now. lol
