I've been telling this to all fans of pop punk. Try out a band called A (just the letter A). If you like Blink then you like upbeat summery shit, and these guys do it the best I've ever heard. Anything from the album Hi-Fi Serious is a good place to start (besides the first track which is a bad example of their sound, but still a great song). Trust me, you WILL like it. haha.

Listening To: A - Going Down

You'd call System of a Down pop punk? Wow, how far lost are they? haha

'A' isn't pop punk, but it's got elements of it. No whiney singing. The band's British and the dude has a really cool, heavy accented singing voice. If possible take a listen sometime. I can't believe they didn't explode onto radio, it's some of the catchiest music I've ever heard. In the good way, not like an Eminem song that gets stuck in your head. hahah.

Listening To: Nonpoint - Double Stakked

Oh man, I can't stand him.
I dunno whether i listened to his first album because I as younger and into diff shit, or just because i hadn't heard his voice ten billion times, but I can't stand him now. He's skilled enough, and that's why I used to like him, but there's very little rap I listen to and he's like the Nickelback of hiphop. I just don't even wanna hear that voice again. hahah.

And ya, System's oldest stuff is still amazing.

Listening To: Sonic Youth - Kool Thing

Blink is still strong eve if they did break up, but now most of their fans lsiten AvA and +44, they're okay too, but +44 sucks live, no offence to them.

Listening to: With Me by Sum 41

I listen to Blink 182 sometimes. They are my guilty pleasure. When I listen to them I usually pop in Dude Ranch or Cheshire Cat. Lately I have been back on my Face to Face kick.

Boring ass weekend. Nothing worth mentioning I'm sure. I think there was an Ikea trip in there somewhere. God I'm domesticated. hahaha

I guess I grew up around eminem (if by growning up you mean high school), but woulda never called myself a fan. After a while I just coudn't stand him anymore cause I was hearing him everywhere. My god, if I had to go back to the early 00's and hear all that eminem and nickelback again i might kill someone. hahaa.

I was definitely a limp dipshit fan, but always truly hated fred durst. i've always said the band would be great if they kicked him out and lost the rapping. Wes and the rest have a good sound, but it got manipulated into dumbed down rythyms that fred could rap over top of. Some of the guitar on the first and second record is so great, i wish i could find instrumental versions of those 2 albums. then rollin' came along and all hope was lost. haha. good thing wes is doin his own thing now. he's got black light burns and they're a pretty good band. not great, but not bad.

Listening to: Orgy (yeah, Orgy. haha) - Re-Creation

Oh man, when that song came on in guitar hero me and my friends were laughing our asses off. i never knew how long it was. my fingers were just hitting random notes frantically. way too difficult. i don't like the band, but that was fun.
