think your spelling sucks...can't we talk about things in a more adult way? *ahem* I think that you guys going on a rant to say how much you *hate*(oooooh*shivers* ) a band that quite a few people love is just a little immature, I mean a thread about bands you don't like is alright, everyone does that but to go out of your way to pick on one band is just lame, like the threads about Evanescence
and for anyone who cares.....GC has never (well maybe Benji has hinted at it before) actualy SAID they were a "Hard core punk band"(it's usualy fans that say that crap) they have admitted they are more like Pop rock....they dress the way they want to, and their new album is pretty dark, I love it...esp. this song called "the Truth" it sounds very deep, it's something you would expect from an old classic singer...it's beautiful...also "Ghost Of You" the lyrics are awesome...*looks for lyrics*

Good Charlotte is pop music, disguised as rock or punk or what have you....its made to sell, and that is all....in large numbers...and it does....its purposely as catchy as possible with those lovely nasal lyrics we all love curtesy of Blink 182 and all our favorite emo pop....
The attitude, music, and purpose of good charlotte, sum 41, blink 182, afi, etc. etc. is so far from real rock and roll it's sickening.....its made by corporate giants that sit in ivory towers, strait down the pipeline to all the pop driven youth, and the MTV crowd....
Wicked lady's post is the proof...if she thinks these guys are dressing that way because "they want to" and not because of a marketing executive in charge of good charlottes image and promotion, she just doesn't know how the industry works...
Believe me, when your in the business of selling MILLIONS of records, the record company that OWNS you, will leave nothing to chance.....EVERYTHING is calculated out, to sell more records.....to not see that is niave...
