Title: "This dude is the herpes of music"
Post by: drlmg on May 08, 2013, 09:12:21 PM: I know this is not along the lines of usual topics here...... thought some of you would get a kick out of this....

Very funny..... and I couldn't agree more!

This is a quote from Billie Joe Armstrong, lead singer of greenday..... in regard to psy and his gangnam rap......

Quote
“This dude is the herpes of music,” Armstong wrote. “Once you think it’s gone, it comes back.” The Green Day singer also added a series of hashtags: #herpes, #flarup and #pleasegoaway.

I really hate that song. Nothing that would ever compare to what punk really was, anarchy, distortion, non-conformity. Real punk is not Green Day. I really do NOT like all the posers these days who pretend to be punk. And I know punk is an acquired taste that many people don't like. Basically, if a song is "punk" and mainstream society likes it- it is most likely NOT real punk.

Still, they are a step up above most of today's poison music like Psy and his disgusting music videos and Justin Bieber. Or the stupid "Call me maybe song", Taylor Swift songs. Today's music has no depth. The lyrics are about making money, being conformist, commercial and about the arrogance of being being too drugged and young to care. Music today has not been an "art" for a long time.

LOL!! Wow it really would! I really could imagine the sons of Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious taking that name. (if they had any)

AS far as Psy, I can say that I was strapped and tied to my chair and forced to watch him and his terrible "music" video. It was in a JetBlue flight last year, I had a seat belt on, stuck in my seat while his terrible song played like 85% of the time from LA to NY and back! >:( Torture!

Yes he is trying to get some press for himself off of Psy's popularity.
