Agreed. They scare me to the point I don't want to get any song from them because it might be as spooky and messed up as they look.

Y'know, KISS looked "spooky and messed up" in their days, but their music didn't sound ANYTHING remotely like the image they portrayed.

If anyone disrespects the Misfits for their "ridiculous look", myself, GK, and Matthew are going to hop into a copy of the A-Team van with the Crimson Ghost painted on the side of it and hunt those people for sport.
That is all.

 *agrees with 'tron as he jumps into a westbound train* Just a thought, if ridiculousness (ridicularity?) in looks doesnt matter to some, then why hate Good Charlotte? Most people I know, don't like GC cuz of their appearance, which I do happen to agree, is homoriffic, but their music is awesome.....

UGH, like I'd EVER be caught DEAD in Atlantic City!
 And actually Jerry Only IS about 40, and from standing right next to him, I can safely say he could probably kick the crap out of 99% of the people here And the fact of the matter is, many bands from NOFX to Metallica to AFI to about a million others credit the Misfits as a major influence, as likewise the Misfits credit bands like The Ramones as a major influence. Again, if you judge a band by how they look, you're the one cutting off your nose to spite your face. As for Good Charlotte, I don't love them but I don't hate them the way many do (ahem... GK aint around is he?). What I think it boils down to is that as far as their "look" goes, they try very hard to LOOK like "punks" in the same vein as the Sex Pistols and whatnot, with the piercings and tattoos and the weird hair and all that. But they're not. They play the same type of pop/punk as Blink 182 and a million other bands out right now that try to act "punk" but they're not. I, for one, am opposed to the elitist "I'm a punk/No you're not" elitist posturing B.S., but the fact of the matter is putting on a Dead Kennedy's shirt and sticking a safety pin in your eyelid does not make you a "punk". It's just like how people hate Avril Lavigne because she calls herself "punk" for wearing a tie and a boys' undershirt, meanwhile she had never even heard of the Sex Pistols. It's not so much the music people hate, it's the phony image. Although some say they hate Good Charlotte's style because it's overly simple and basically the same as a million other bands that are out right now. Me, I don't mind their music but they definitely fall into the "songs I like, some songs I don't" category. I do have two of their CDs, but I hardly listen to more than a couple songs. |

I have GC's 2nd CD, and it's probably my 4th or 5th most listened to CD I own. Of course I think we've established that you and I have different music interests, so it's probably a bit different with you (Sean). I can't stand GC's look-at-me-I'm-a-punk appearance. I can just imagine them sitting together with a SPIN magazine deciding how to be cool next week. In all honesty I took their picture out of the CD case, just so I wouldnt think of what they looked like when I pulled the CD out.
And don't get me started on the lead singer of AFI. He's even scarier to me than MJ.....*shudders*

It's weird how Davey (from AFI) has changed over the years. I remember seeing them when they first started out and he looked absolutely nothing like he does now. Short hair, big ears, few if any tattoos... I think he had some life experiences which changed the way he viewed the world and likewise how he expresses himself. Which would also explain how AFI used to stand for "Asking For It" but now stands for "A Fire Inside".
Still, you seem to judge people by their looks a lot (no offense or anything). Davey's a nice guy (well I only met him once but he seemed like a swell fella when he was talking to us in the parking lot at the Stone Pony), a great singer, and probably one of the most talented people in rock right now. Imagine... a singer in a rock band that can actually SING..... |

Don't get me wrong, I love AFI's music, it's great. I just heard my first AFI music a yr or 2 ago, so I don't remember the old Dave. sorry. But dude, he has a voice and a half. His appearance is just somehow disturbing to me, though.... On an interview on the radio, he said that in the recording studios, sometimes he'd have to hold towels in his hands, because sometimes he'd get so into the music that his fingernails would dig in and cut his palms. Kinda cool, yet crazy....
