I guess I’m not the only one who thinks tr00 pop punk is wack?

When people use the word “meaningful” non-ironically = never not funny

I always lol at that “Unpopular Opinions” Tumblr because it’s all stuff like “I THINK TWILIGHT IS A STUPID MOVIE!!!” or “THE PRETTY GIRLS AT SCHOOL ARE SHALLOW!!” In other words, the exact opposite of controversial, unpopular opinions. Tr00 pop-punk makes me roll my eyes for the same reason: for all the lulzy, gay posturing about how they’re going against the grain and defending pop-punk, tr00 pop-punk is the trendiest shit in the game right now.

I’m stoked to see I’m not just a clueless oldfag, and that these kids called WRONG ANSWER are putting tr00 pop-punk buttholes on blast. Sure, the acting is putrid and the delivery is sloppy and unrehearsed (like they shot the first take without ever thinking about what they were going to say, which is probably exactly what happened), but that’s exactly why it’s awesome. Repeat after me: worse is better! (srs) Also, love the singer’s cat costume.

Catch these bros on tour this winter– mirin this Promise Ring parody graphic hard!!

Back in the 90s I always thought it was hilarious how the supposedly “ignorant assholes” in stupid moshcore bands were the most friendly, awesome dudes. The real assholes were the emo/pc police/fggt patrol who got up on their high horse and judged whether everybody was tr00/DIY/PC enough and ruined the fun for everything. Bands like Wrong Answer who put the fun in hardcore = backed hard!

Thanks to Taylortexas for the link, and having a pornstar name

    I can’t lie – I got pretty stoked when I saw that flyer because I thought that it meant The Promise Ring were doing a “Nothing Feels Good” – related tour, and they are coming to Raleigh. Then again, this band is fucking sweet, so now I’m just stoked that I’ll be able to see them instead. Thanks for making me aware of this!

    Awkward acting + Making fun of trendy bullshit + Sponsored by Arby’s = LEGIT

    i’ve seen agitator a few times and they totally bring the ignorance, fun live band, not good music. stupid lyrics, for example, “you went to a party and drank lots of beer, instead of sleeping it off, you put your car into gear”

    then apparently they have a song about how if you drink you will rape girls.

    So if guys who make lyrics about being assholes are cool guys do guys who make WKish lyrics get the most pussy? Are all lyrics total reverse psychology? Deeeeeeeeep.

  7. KeepinitCurrant says:

    I think the pop-punk scene is definitely going down a pretty stupid path with the recent rise of elitism and there are definitely a lot of turd-burglers, but I think its equally as lame when people of a different scene try and shove their music down other people’s throats in an attempt to show them how much “cooler” and “truer” there’s is. Even though this video is more-or-less just a light-hearted jab at the pop-punk scene, I find it comparable to a situation where a greasy metal dork constantly plays some obscure death metal band’s music to a bunch of scene kids to show them how wrong they are by thinking that TDWP is heavy and brutal, or whatever. All in all its just kinda lame….but the song itself was pretty sweet though

    • Sergeant D says:

      I see your point, and I think that kind of behavior is lame too. However, I think it’s more like the opposite, since the point of this is more like “Dudes, loosen up and quit taking everything so seriously.”

  8. thetotalbro says:

    Tr00/SRS band frontmen need to stop sounding like the faggy motivational speakers my middle school hired to tell us to stay off drugs and not call fat people fat.

    • refusetodie says:

      When I saw A Loss for Words, I fucking swear their vocalist gave the SAME speech that the fake frontman in this video did.

  9. inb4everthesickestkids says:

    January 3rd date is probably Jackson, MS not Jackson, MI. .

    at least I hope…

  10. refusetodie says:

    Video’s a classic. Surprised it hasn’t been up in here before. Band is backed. Not a fan of Agitator though.

  11. Anonymous says:

    Sounds like Down For Nothing. Also, is their drummer also in CDC? Or do all beardos look alike?

  12. JFC Carbomb says:

    I really wanted to hear the first band play. I don’t know why you guys hate on people making songs about real stuff. Who hasn’t had a hard time keeping their head up? At least you can relate to it. This video just proves how judgmental and ignorant the hardcore scene is. We all share this planet we should all just get along.

  13. Thatguy says:

    what the fuck, ozark?? lol i dont think anyone there even likes music period. but ill prolly go to the kc date.

  14. Wintermute says:

    Just browsed that ‘Unpopular Opinions’ tumblr for a minute…I’m now raging and want to murder everyone associated with it.

    Wrong Answer, y u no be on Spotify?

  15. DiscreetSqueezer says:

    I wish more people moshed with 2×4′s at shows like some of the dudes in this video.

    Stoked to get hammered on NYE and see these guys.

  16. ob says:

    I like the moshing ghost in the video.

    The Agitator song referenced above (Diseased) begins in typical “slut bashing” fashion but then transforms into 100% ignorant, blame the victim shit.

  17. Jonda says:

    Honestly whats so bad about troo pop punk? Its not the fucking plague dude. Id rather go to those type of shows than an upon a burning body show filled with annoying 16 year old fags and weird looking girls.

  18. Taytex says:

    True story: in the ninth grade I started a band called Alexis Texas, and the name was simply parodying Hannah Montana who had probably reached her peak in popularity at the time. Several months passed before we decided to do what every new and naive band does — Google themselves. We got hundreds of thousands of porn videos, and learned that day that we shared a name with a porn star. That led to many awkward misunderstandings in the future, but I regret nothing. I eventually earned the nickname Taylor Texas (my first name is Taylor) and so that’s the best username I can think of when signing up for anything. And that is how I have a porn name.

    Moar trivia: There’s actually a town in Texas called Taylor, I’ll never be fucking original at anything.

    Also, band rules. Both they and Agitator were supposed to play a show here this weekend, then fucking dropped and decided to go on tour together. How does that happen? Fuckers.

  19. Void Eater says:

    Tr00 pop punk just doesn’t make sense… How can you be so serious about a style of music that has 0 reasons for existance other than making the band’s money and serving as backround music to a party?

  20. Nathan says:

    I just like how they’re playing a january 9th show in the entire state of new jersey.

    • refusetodie says:

      That’s cuz it was on some TBA shit, shit’s going down at this drunk punx dive bar in Trenton. I am certain hilarity will ensue.

  21. Robert says:

    Wish I could still find the video..But apparently some rap group filmed a video at an Agitator show, typical rapping and hand gestures towards the camera while there are thrash cans and branches being thrown in the background. Straight up ignorant shit, haha love Agitator.
