there has been a list of bands, mostly soft-punk, i’ll admit, i wrote off almost completely as a bunch of wannabe singers, with simplistic musicianship, that had no appeal except to the average adolescent teenage girl. and now, forced by work to survey youtube for their acoustic versions, i’ve changed my mind about some of their songs. but there is also a certain nostalgia that punk carries, of teenage youth and energy and emotion and the whole package. the bluntness of words and directness of speech. it deserves a notable mention in the ipod.
