Green Day

The band Green Day is NOT punk or even punk-rock. Maybe their old stuff was, but they've deteriorated into something that only the most tasteless 12-year-olds can squeal over. Welcome to boy band territory, Green Day.

If you have any tiny iota of respect for the genre, don't call this teenybop shit "punk." That's like calling Linkin Park "heavy metal."

Billie Joe wears eyeliner like he was a raccoon in a past life and veritably vomits angst, but that doesn't mean that Green Day is anything more than a group of broody poseurs that have been shunted into the shallow pop-rock scene.
