social distortion is punk and i bet that the lead singer,mike ness's i q is higher than most of america.jello biafra is another punk.lead singer of the dead kennedys.
and what about the ramones?no talent?then why did they last so long?
you will find the average punk listener is a yuppie who earns three figures a year and that most punk preformers aren't worried about money.

Yes, Ramones rock, and Rancid, and the Vandals and Casualties and Exploited and Transplants and all that good stuff? no one likes any of these? *sigh* wow, surprising, sort of disapointing.

and emo is actually quite good, most people just hear other people say emo  sucks then they go around saying it, that's bullsh*t ><


Any one like Bright Eyes?

i like punk, but what they call "punk" nowadays is just crap. it's not about the music and message anymore, it's just aobut what you wear and your hairdo.

my favorite punk bands are

1. the clash
2. ramones
3. mc5
4. sex pistols
5. dead kennedys

pc is right.
Greg Graffin of Bad Religion has a PHD in Evolutionary Biology, he's probably one of the most intelligent persons in America, yet he prefers to play with his punk band and earns basically nothing.
Dexter Holland of The Offspring has a bachelor's degree in biology and a masters in molecular biology.

i think you'd have to be pretty smart to play music and do it well. as well as there are smart people in the music industry i'm pretty sure there are many dumb ones too.

jessica simpson any1 she could have a harvard degree in reading things by only their literal meanings?

I was more into the post punk bands
Joy Division
Xtc
Talking Heads.
Jesus and The Mary Chain
Clash

I think its wrong to say punk bands had no talent. Listen to the Sex Pistols "Never Mind The Bollocks" - its a very clever little album, and their singles are great pop songs hidden under that noise.
Without them we could still be grooving to Yes and Emmerson Lake and Palmer

About 2/3 of my 2000 CD's are punk/hardcore CD's
I play in 3 punk/hardcore bands
I go to 50-60 punk/hardcore gigs per year

So yeah... You could say I'm kinda into punk. :)

The Sex Pistols & the Clash are two of the most important punk rock bands of all time while lame so called punk rockers like Green Day are a joke.

That's one of the dumbest things I've ever read. I could list about a dozen people in well-known punk rock bands that have a doctorate, and several dozens of people in famous rock bands that have a punk rock background.

Milo Aukerman of the Descendents also has a PhD in Biology.

Greg Graffin also made a superb (mostly piano driven) solo album under the name American Lesion. Highly recommended.

Yellowcard? Really?

Well I guess I can't really talk seeing as the only two punk bands that I'm really into are The Ramones and Green Day (and Green Day are only somewhat punk)
