Punk?

Is it really honest to call this band punk when you look at their music, politics and commercial drive?

its punk rock - they say so themselves!!!!

Hardcore my ass

Not only that, but in the article the author said that the release of their untitled record brought them back into the hardcore scene, even though they never have and probably never will be a hardcore band. I highly doubt the author of this article even knows what hardcore sounds like, and it needs to be revised. In fact, I'm gonna do that right now.

By the way, the author of this article sounds like they're in 7th grade.

What's with the writing of this article? It starts of by saying that the band formed in 1991, yet Tom and Mark didn't meet until 92. Nice. --Vision4bg 07:39, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Tried to clean it up a bit. Lan3y - Talk 22:55, Feb 22, 2005 (UTC)

An article, not fan site

I threw out the back-and-forth about the band's possible breakup that had been dumped on top of the article - let's wait until there's an event worthy of an encyclopedia article before putting in material, please - and took out some first-person point of view. - DavidWBrooks 20:41, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Right, I have put a single sentence at the top now. I think that this should be placed in a prominent position, and together with the text at the bottom is sufficiently clear. Lan3y - Talk 21:31, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)

I'm sorry

It wasn't my purpose to be racist, I am from Argentina, and hate that kind of agression towards me, but at first sight that comment from that girl sounded more like from a groupie. OK, I won't meke any comments like this in the future, not even think of them.

Thanx for making me realize my sillyness, I didn't meant to sound as a war-criminal,

Bye

The talk page is for commments, and the comment above suit the purposes of the talk page. For you to delete it is to ignore the comments above and discard them. It is up to the author to delete these comments, as they are on a talkpage instead of an article page. Also, your description as the "Mexican unnecesary comment" is incredibly racist and uncalled for. Go edit the Skrewdriver page and leave the human beings alone, war-criminal. --TheGrza 08:39, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)

Pop punk

They're pop punk. They're practically the definition of pop punk. Rhobite 00:31, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

when they won the award for best new act or whatever i quote 'thanks guys and just keep on supporting punk rock, thankyou. SO YOU ARE WRONG THEY CALL THEMSELVES PUNK ROCK. - b1link82

Allmusicguide: [1] see "Styles". Google search [2] 62,000 hits. Please stop removing the fact that they're "pop punk". Rhobite 13:50, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

So google is right and the band members are wrong, i am not allowed to call you an idiot but if i was allowed to i would. --B1link82 13:51, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Oh, what a clever way to get around "No personal attacks". I'm sorry, but they are pop-punk. User:Rhobite is correct. Lan3y - Talk 13:57, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

Pop punk

1. It seems to be clear to me from their music that they are more punk rock than pop punk. Lan3y - Talk 14:04, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)
2. Of course they're pop punk. B1link82 please remember Wikipedia:No personal attacks and Wikipedia:Three revert rule. Rhobite 14:50, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

Punk rock

1. punk rock because they band say they are, obviously Lan3y knows more about the band than mark and tom, an example of Stupidity. Unsigned vote by User:B1link82
2. b1link82 is right they are a punk rock band along with green day, new found glory etc.... Unsigned vote by anonymous User:84.67.4.49
3. Definetly Punk Rock as attitude, but pop punk as music, even that they last disc sounds as Punk Rock, let's ask Greg Graffin...--Greedyredbag 19:47, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
