i've been listening to them a lot lately and i think they're just such a fun band, i don't get why so many people hate them. sure, a lot of their stuff suck. but songs like "she" and "i was there".. simply pop punk at its best.

yes, have to admit that I listened a lot to them a lot of years ago. pretty good memories are connected, while listening to them. but just to the albums BEFORE "warning"
some of the most easy and fun songs to cover with your band too

I don't have any strong feelings either way. I quite like some of their songs when I hear them on the radio but would hardly consider myself a fan. I tend to think that they get a rough deal mostly from people who quite liked them at one point, but now feel that they've grown out of them. Either that or they went to a school full of Green Day fans. Otherwise why would they inspire such hatred?

I dont hate them.
and I just listened to them while beeing in my teens because I just liked them a lot, and that was the time where everybody was listening to that KoRn/limp Bozkit trash around me.
I was a lil bit dissapointed by their latest releases because they lacked this kinda "I dont care but still having fun" -energy of the early releases.

I must have heard that "Good Riddance" song about 10,000 times during my high school years, 7,500 of the times being in my senior year. Hence my extreme dislike.

Them and Offspring = shit

Never liked their singing, their records, their jumping, their piercings, their clothes, their tatoos. Everything is just wrong about them. Wrong.

I don't like to bag on people's tastes, so it's cool that you can appreciate them. But I really, really can't. Anymore, that is.

On a side note, if I ever get a song of theirs stuck in my head, no matter what song, it inevitably evolves into "Happy Together" by the Turtles.

I just throw on some Superchunk instead. They do pop-punk better than many other bands.

I have hated them since time immemorial. I cannot stand fucking dipshit assholes singing in faux-british accents cuz it's so "punk". It makes me sick. fuck them and their goddamned ridiculous musical "legacy"

I hate them and I want them dead.

While I hate green day I wouldn't say their accents are faux-british...though I know what you mean and I hate bands like that. I'd say the singer from greenday has more of a faux-drunk kinda manly valley girl accent fucked up on pills.

it's like half slur, half retarded, half drunk, and alot of trying to be cool/valley bullshit west coast crap.

are they even from the west coast?
