I did a similar post, but it was about screamo. So I'm wondering...do you guys like punk music? Now, let's define punk.

I don't talk very much about punk music, and I'm wondering if I should or shouldn't. So do you guys like punk music? Do you not like punk music? Tell me in the comments.

Debate-Screamo
Just wanted to say that I am very happy because this blog got 81 views so far today, that's awesome.
But something I genuinely wanted to know is, do you guys like screamo?
I'm calling it screamo because that's generally what it's known as. It may not be correct but, come on.
I've shown you guys a few bands where the lead singer occasionally screams like Picture me Broken, We Are The Ocean, Amongst Heroes, etc. But I really want to know if it's something that you guys like. I want to understand my audience.
I like screamo, but it's really something you learn to love.....like steamed vegetables....
Screamo is steamed vegetables.
I like screamo now because if you listen to what they're screaming about, everything makes sense. The emphasis on the one phrase that they scream just adds power to it. Screamo is something you can relate to.
Now, I can understand why people wouldn't like it.

- It's scary
- It's loud
- You can't understand what they're saying half the time
- Screaming isn't music, it's just screaming
Debate-Paramore
This will kind of be a new segment. It'll be listed under "segments" so I guess it'll be a segment.
I wanted to make a segment where you get an opinion and you can voice something instead of just clicking on a link and liking or disliking a song.
This is sure to cause arguments in the comments, once people actually comment on the blog.
Today we'll be debating about Paramore. It's whether or not you like the old Paramore, (songs from All We Know is Falling, Riot!, Brand New Eyes with the Farro brothers) or new Paramore (self-titled album without the Farro brothers)
Let's talk about old Paramore first. I personally like old Paramore because they released some of my favorite songs like Ignorance, Decode, Fences, Let the Flames Begin, etc. Also, Zac was a really good drummer in the band, and with the Farro brothers still in the band they released alternative rock music. Also, every one of their albums from All We Know is Falling to Brand New Eyes just improved. Hayley's singing became more powerful, she had more control, maybe a wider range, Taylor, Josh, Zac, and Jeremy all just improved as musicians, and the songs gradually become more complex and expressed deeper thoughts.
Now onto new Paramore. I was so excited when I heard that Paramore was going to release a new album. I just bought a band T-Shirt, I was on youtube and I was ready to listen to Now. I double-checked to make sure I was listening to Paramore. It sounded nothing like them. Without the Farro brothers, the band just kind of fell apart. Yes, before then they released some great songs like Monster and In the Mourning, and Monster is also one of my favorite songs by them, but the new album just disappointed me. Their entire style changed. They did release some great songs on the album. I personally like Anklebiters, the interludes, and Part II. But songs like Ain't it Fun and Still Into You just really don't sound like them. A lot of people like these songs, but when you compare them to songs like Pressure and Brighter, you can barely tell they're the same band. It's true, a band won't stay the same forever. We can't expect them to keep writing simple songs with power chords and simple lyrics. I just don't feel like they exactly changed for the best.
Now it's your decision. Do you like old Paramore or new Paramore? Argue below in the comments. After 10 comments, I'll tell you guys who won.
