You assume I don't like Metal? Think again.
Again I say, those bands you mention are NOT punk. Go listen to some real punk music then comment.

Just to clear things up, I never assumed you didn't like metal, just trailed off the topic like i usually do. And nah, I wouldn't waste my time listening to "real" punk

Then you shouldn't comment on things you know nothing about. Most of what I have called 'real punk' in this thread is far more metal than those semi-commercial bands you like and refer to as metal.

Anyway, who gives a damn if they're pop, classical or punk. You like them and that's it, you don't have to worry about what Joe Blow thinks.
Just because someone listens to a lot of music by bands that half the population has never heard of, does not make them (or their opinion) more superior than anyone elses.
It just means everyone has different tastes, and if we all liked the same thing we'd die of boredom.
I know it's sort of off-topic, but it drives me nuts when music is supposed to be discussed on a message board, and instead of actually talking about music, the discussion turns into an argument about who's more punk (or whatever), because they listen to more underground bands, or they were huge fans of whoever until they "sold out".
These arguments rarely involve people who listen to "pop" music, but usually people who listen to anything a bit alternative, they try so hard to prove how "alternative" they are they don't realise they are acting just like the mainstream zombies they supposedly despise so much.

Nicely put, man...nicely put

I don't really like their selection actually, they play too much of the hits and rarely go much further than that. BUT as far as radio stations go, yeah it's my preferred one.
