Well excuse the general public for making that mistake.. :roll: :P
I don't really care that much what they say, it's more about how they (or anyone) present(s) themselves.

and since when is punk about a look ? you will always have people who like to dress that way but dont live that way. more power to them as long as they aren't frontin
here's my thought..It's obvious/ Record companies want to sell to KIDS, kids like whiny bitchy emo music, yet the whole PUNK thing attached to it makes them sell many more records without having to deal with REAL punk bands. One reason real punk music doesn't get commercial here, which im fine with, is most punk bands aren't willing to sell their soul to get a deal.

Definitely never said it was; the point is that they (blink) seem to be all about frontin'.
Well granted, I haven't listened to much of their..um shit, so I'll leave it at that for now...

uh and? LOL so what, thats fashion THAT took over along time ago there is no stopping that./ i have no problem with some one spiking their hair and not being an anarchist or truly punk meaning the 2 dont have to go hand in hand. To me punk is mostly a state of mind just like someone can surely be punk and have on a suit. I these kids, blink (they are in their mid 30s now) were dressin like that in high School before they were a band, big deal.
I just respect the fact that they publicly state they aren't trying to be a punk band they are just having fun. FFS they sing about midgets and tits and run around naked in their Videos.
90% of spiked haired people in our country are not punk if not more, But i dont think that one thing should lump them in with a group of true posers. They are not POSING as something else they are straight up about it and i respect that.
I tend to not assume someone is punk or trying to act punk based on a Fashion statement. I see a mohawk about every 10th person when i walk down the street and this is so NOT a punk City . Or do you think white kids who wear hip hop gear REALLY think they are black and are fooling us all? LOL ;)
Fashion has become so mixed up and CONVOLUTED LOL that you really cant use that as an argument these days. Although I will say its kinda sad. I liked it back in the day when i would SEE someone and know without a doubt that was A punk mother fucker! LOL i mean real punk. NOW a days, you Cant do that.
