Nele Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 haha i thought it was about shoes too.i'd totally buy a pair of J.A.R. shoes.Shit, now I want a pair... xDI don't like Green Day covers. Or bands that are inspired by Green Day. They're shit.You can't really say that. There are so many bands out there and I bet you couldn't even guess which one of them is inspired by GD or not. In fact, just being inspired by a band doesn't mean the band is trying to sound like them, maybe they just got inspired by the lyrics.
downontelegraph Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Read my post again. "Bands that are inspired by Green Day"and don't like = hatenot trying to gang up on you or anything, but isn't avril lavigne pretty inspired by green day?

downontelegraph Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 I've just never cared much for Weezer or Blink 182 and so on.yeah i agree, blink isn't too great. weezer's good though.
Maddy. Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 yeah i agree, blink isn't too great. weezer's good though.I gave Weezer a try but idk, it just didn't 'click' not trying to gang up on you or anything, but isn't avril lavigne pretty inspired by green day? Is she?
Nele Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 not trying to gang up on you or anything, but isn't avril lavigne pretty inspired by green day? lol, I think she is. Nothing against her Maddy, but her cover of Basket Case sucked... I guess I'm just picky when it comes to music. I'm picky too, but give bands like that a chance, and if it's not your cup of teas, well, that's ok too.Is she?Well I think she is... I mean she covered them and all, maybe she just likes their music idk.

I mean she covered them and all, maybe she just likes their music idk.I saw that on Youtube. It was pretty bad. xDI try to but usually I go off them after a few listens. There's only a certain amount of time I can listen to band I'm not in love with. It's kinda weird. Like, I went off Hey Monday after about an hour. Idk if she's inspired by them. I just like her music, lol.
peepee Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 LoL, you're trapped. Avrile is definately inspired by Green Day. Green Day paved the way for her music. If it wasn't for them she propbably would never get a chance in the world. I bet she wont even deny it. So how can you say you dont like bands that are inspired by Green day? Its so narrow minded. You havent even heard all the bands inspired by green day and most you will not even know they were inspired by green day.I know you dont believe it but green day were once (and still are) heavily inspired by bands like Kinks, Ramones, Clash, Pistols and so on. Thats just life. People inspire people. Green Day dont own the style of music they are playing. They just took it a bit further and put another twist on it. A more poppy type of rock.Im not ganging up on you either, im just saying. But i respect if you dont like covers.

I sort of meant that all of those bands that are like "yeah, Green Day has really inspired us to play music too" that I don't really care much for them. Bands like Weezer, Blink 182 and Fall Out Boy. idk why, but the music never really spoke to me the way Green Day's does. The fact I don't like them doesn't mean I'm narrow minded.And I know you dont believe it but green day were once (and still are) heavily inspired by bands like Kinks, Ramones, Clash, Pistols and so on.I never said anything about the bands Green Day were inspired by, mmkay?
Nikki_Nimrod Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 lol, I thought it was about shoes too But anyways, those are really great covers! I usually don't listen to them much either, but these ones were very well done.

The fact I don't like them doesn't mean I'm narrow minded.And I never said anything about the bands Green Day were inspired by, mmkay?you realize that virtually every band (or, probably 7 out of 10) out of the mid-90's through today are bands that go "green day really inspired us to play music."i'd bet that, even though you don't like the listed bands, a majority of any modern rock you listen to is green day inspired

peepee Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 So in this thread about these two Green Day covers we have talked mainly about shoes...and then about Avrile, and about Green Day inspired music and that's about it. LoL. Regarding bands that were inspired by Green Day, there is only one that I dont like at all and that is Sum41. He is trying too hard to be Green Day...ish. Anyone agree?
