04rebhop Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 My Chemical Romance. I can't see why people always compare them to Green Day when they sound nothing like each other!
dolce Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 ^ I mean, they're both rock artists, but they play two entirely different kinds of rock. I don't really listen to MCR, but from the songs I have heard, they're nothing alike.
JHyena86 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Disney said the Jonas Brothers are like a cleaner version of Green Day.I wanted to puke.Yet another reason for me to hate Disney...they are really starting to pile up.Mostly Blink 182. Because I can't stand them. I had an ex who kept trying to convince me they were better than GD and made GD popular. I think you can all figure out the #1 reason I got rid of him...My Chem comparison I think is mostly due to both were really popular that time, and similar fashion...music however not so much...I dislike when people compare them to old punk bands to prove they aren't punk. Most of them don't know the facts when they do it.
mudhippie Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I really don't like it when they're compared to MCR, they don't sound anything alike.And wtf, Jonas Brothers a cleaner version of GD? I really don't know what to think about this, all i have to say is, way to go disney! :down:
dolce Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 ^ I'm dying to see where that Jonas Brothers thing came from. It's hysterical for Disney to make that kind of "comparison".
Penguin Puffball Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Disney said the Jonas Brothers are like a cleaner version of Green Day.I wanted to puke.Dear God.It's statements like this that make me want to find everyone associated with Disney, shove a porcupine up their ass, and mow them all down with a King Tiger tank.
Chad is Rad Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Good Charlotte! I've surprisingly heard a lot of people say that they "sound exactly alike." I hear absolutely no resemblance between the two bands, Joel Madden has a really whiny annoying voice, where Billie's is totally the opposite. Also, it does get annoying when people say that if it wasn't for Blink-182, Green Day wouldn't be around. It is most definitely the other way around...
TheMinority Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and Fall Out Boy despite they sound nothing like them. MCR and Green Day are so different yet good but I don't like them being compared to eachother. They're far away from eachother the only thing they do have in common is the black shirt with the red tie and Gibson guitars, that's it..
Jesus*Of*Suburbia Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I dislike people who say Green Day is 'Emo'.... Agreed.
lovelyrita Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Agreed.The same, it sucks so much.With Good Charlotte :|, what similar people see in those two bands? :/
Netsirk Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 i hate it when people say Blink is a better and improved version of Green Day. i'm like... wtf, Blink BARELY has 10 songs that are worth listening to....that was a bit harsh
Juliette Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 when people compare green day to any emo band / say they're emo

Also, it does get annoying when people say that if it wasn't for Blink-182, Green Day wouldn't be around. It is most definitely the other way around...Those kind of statements usually come from people who think American Idiot was their first album. Green Day was completely absent from pop culture for almost 6 years (when Blink-182 was at their peak), so I can see why that would happen. But it was definitely Dookie that paved the way for Blink-182.And I'm not sure why everyone is hating on Blink-182. I agree about the other bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, etc, but Blink-182 makes very fun music and the members seem like very cool, funny guys. I've always been a fan of both bands, but more-so with Green Day of course.I'm not sure why some people brought up U2 and Metallica. Completely different genres of music. Besides, Green Day should be flattered to be mentioned with those two bands. They've been around for a while and they pioneered their respectively unique sounds.

novacaine_kid Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 The Blink comparison annoys me. Blink have always been pretty much a toilet humour, college bratty pop punk band, where as GD have always been somewhat deeper than that. The only thing comparable between the two is that they are both trio's. Also the comparison to U2 and other stadium rock bands is kinda shallow

I hear absolutely no resemblance between the two bands, Joel Madden has a really whiny annoying voice, where Billie's is totally the opposite.OMG - one day I was in the car with my dad, and "The River" came on the radio. My dad (who I consider to be pretty aware and with the times when it comes to new music, and is a fan of GD) was like "This isn't Green Day right? It sounds just like Billie Joe. A lot." I didn't hear the resemblance. Then, not even a week later, my mom heard the same song and went "This is Green Day?" I was like "No, why?" And she said, "Wow, he sounds a lot like Billie Joe." I DON'T HEAR IT! I feel like I'm missing something, lol, because I don't hear how Joel Madden and Billie sound alike.

Not all I, really don't know how someone could get time mixed up.
IzButt Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Hawthorne Heights And every other pop rock/emo band that they seemed to be always stereotyped as.
rinu Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Hawthorne Heights And every other pop rock/emo band that they seemed to be always stereotyped as.Dammit.Yes I always thought that.
Metanoia Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 all-american rejects o.0 heard that a lot o.0
Tomcat20 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 the only bands worth to be compared to Green Day are the Ramones and The Queers IMO.
earlysunsets Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 well.. ive actually never heard Green Day been compared to anyone, but my mum thinks everyone is Green Day though.*guy with black hair on the TV*mum; 'IS THAT GREEN DAY?'me; 'noooo.'mum; 'they look a like? he has black stuff around his eye and black hair'me;
Farah Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 practically any, green day is green day!it is very very sad thought when people compare them to JB n stuff like that though. o_Ooh i don't like it when they compare them to sum-41 x(

IT'S OBVIOSLY NOT THEM!
