Sun God

I wasn’t even trying to bully them lol was just answering questions. I fully support everyone liking what they like. When I discovered blink, I went the other way and started listening to the bands that came before them like Pennywise and NofX and that whole world. I can’t imagine going from a blistering Pennywise song to TSL lol, but that’s just me. All the bands that came out after blink and road their coattails just didn’t appeal to me. It is what it is.

I’m just old dude, if I was a few years younger I’d probably have loved TSL

My reason is I’ve heard their music and I don’t like it. It makes me cringe. Everything else is secondary, but those are all valid reasons not to like them. Sorry that I was a more rebellious person when they came out and wanted more rebellious music. Only so much fucking blink copy cat pop/punk I can take. You can disagree with that all you want but in my opinion the best musical acts have some sort of edge or originality to them. I don’t care for trend chasers which is all TSL are. I could scream to the high heavens about how fucking great and legendary Social Distortion is, but that’s not going to make you like them if you don’t like them. Sorry but I’ve exceeded my daily bandwidth talking about shitty bands, I hope you have a good day.

I said blink popularized it, not created it. You should learn to read and comprehend. I don’t care about any of that if the music is good. Their music is lame. Sorry dude but you can’t convince people to like music they don’t like I’m not sure what you think you’re going to accomplish. Chalk it up to an age thing , I didn’t like any of those bands that came out riding the blink wave and I never will

Never seen someone have such a meltdown over someone not liking a shitty band like this before lol

Their music sucks. End of discussion. Fucks your problem? Imagine skipping over someone saying Green Day sucks but then trying to convince someone so bad that some generic fucking nerdy band like starting line is great 🤣

I never said blink is Black Sabbath and created a genre you clown. “never had to do the naked thing” yea they just had to ride blink’s coattails and still only ever made it to being a fringe band that literally nobody gives a shit about Blink is far more original than the Starting Line. Blink literally popularized dickies and that whole look in the late 90s and early 2000s. Starting Line was just there to follow. But the problem for them is their music sucks and they are little fucking nerds I would never want to hang out with. Cry all you want about it

They literally look like dorks I could rip off and charge $100 for an eighth back in the day 🤣

You’re being so dense dude. No, they didn’t invent it but they had their own spin, style, and sound on it. You really gonna act like Starting Line wasn’t just riding blink’s coattails trying to sound and look just like them? You literally just mentioned how they even wore blink’s brand of clothing. What are you on about? You really think everyone that enjoyed blink by law also has to like all the lame, nerdy copy cat bands that came after them? You really think that?! They suck dude, give it a rest

Yea and every single band not named blink that repped Atticus is fucking lame lol. Sorry dude, all of the talking points you keep hitting mean absolutely nothing to me. Music I’d rather listen to than The Starting Line: Kid Rock Milli Vanilli Five Finger Death Punch mumble rap Gangnam Style on repeat for 24 hours Baby Shark I view bands like the Starting Line as the lowest of the low. Have a great day!

Yea? I don’t understand your logic here. “You like the original band but can’t stand the generic copy cats?!” Scott Russo said in the 1994 Documentary that after blink came around all the demos he would receive from kids sounded just like blink. The Starting Line are guilty of that. And then there’s the fact they’re just harmless nerds, nothing appeals to me dude. I don’t like whiny fucking voices who were all just trying to emulate Tom , I can’t fucking stand it. Not sure why you’re begging. Are you in the band or something?

I’d rock out to the new Sabrina Carpenter album or some Taylor Swift before I ever listen to The Starting Line and that’s not being hyperbolic.

You can plead all you want bro, I’m not going to listen to generic, copy cat, pg rated, whiny ass emo music! I prefer authenticity and I can’t stand any of the blink copy cats that came out after them. I am glad you enjoy them and support your right to do so lol. I only even said anything negative about them because Scott ripped on Green Day which is dumb if you’re going to suck off a band like the Starting Line in the same breathe.

The crime against humanity was their whack ass music lol

Who cares! Warped Tour had some of the lamest and whackest emo bands to ever exist. Eminem played the Warped Tour so I guess you guys better start sucking up to him! The band sucks dude. Next you’ll be telling me that blink is trash but that All Time Low is great. There is nothing I can relate to with The Starting Line.
