Those band are not that bad!!!
SOAD is a great band, I like Stratovarius a Hell lot and Green Day is
one good Punk Band (Probably the only thing I found good in this "era"
of punk with Pennywise, Millencolin...anyway)
You just have to be as open minded that you are for Complicated and Intelligent Music but in the other way  Simple music, catchy song and Lyrics that goes nowhere can be good! It's all about taste!

I'm glad you differentiate between Radiohead and "alterno" bands, but I disagree that Green Day's guitar sound is better than Radiohead's.
Different, yes.
Better - definitely not!

Not liking Green Day is not a sign of conceit. It's a sign of not
liking simple three chord two and a half minute punk pop crap.

My thoughts exactly. I think progrock is the best form of pop/rock music, but that does not mean that there is no good music being made in other genres as well. American Idiot is a great album.

American Idiot is a big load of crap.
A hell of a lot better punk rock band: At the Drive-In

I can't classify American Idiot, because I can't stand punk. Maybe it's an age condition...

Please forgive me for my crappy english!

Are you saying that prog and it's fans are somehow pretentious and elitist?

I like greenday .. the new record is well done, and the concept is very apparent - unless of course you're an idiot.
I dont listen to green day for musical progression, but because its catchy and well written.

I agree. Radiohead is a much more intelligent band.

| YES! Brilliant comment! Get this man a medal! Green Day = repetitive and simple riffs, the same song written over with different stupid lyrics (the only different one being time of your life, which verges on being an ok song). Terrible albums, especially American Idiot which is the biggest pile of crap i've ever heard by a punk band, suites? keyboards? trying to be something their not and doing it really badly! And those vocals, the same annoying tone on every single track! I hope they either start writing good music or split up soon, either option is doubtful.

That's okay. All of us have at least one 'starting band.' Mine... *sighs* was Buffalo Springfield. (I know someone's running a search on them in order to figure out just how old I am)
