What did you think the punk rock demographic was??

Surprisingly few kids are actually into it these days (though it is admittedly still pretty big amongst certain groups)

Meanwhile all the people who were kids when punk was really big have gotten older

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger and Digital Love are way better imo
But wait wouldn't you guys have had the Strokes at around that time? And Outkast? And peak Radiohead?

well i guess a bunch of drunk reedies trying to do MC Ride impressions is an improvement over a bunch of drunk reedies trying to do Rivers Cuomo impressions

and yeah there were massive amounts of Radiohead fans but for some stupid loving reason every student union party defaulted to Daft Punk

Wait why would anybody want to be Rivers Cuomo

Like, the running theme of Weezer is "yeah we're a bunch of pathetic nerds w/ no self awareness"

Wait that pretty much explains it

Also Daft Punk was, as I understand, the first time kids who mostly liked indie poo poo were introduced to dance music, so they lost their poo poo over it.

Nah, cause there's no way I'm actually giving a poo poo about 2016

I got heavily disillusioned with mainstream politics in the past couple years

One thing to keep in mind though; For a significant chunk of my life, George Bush was, to me, the only person who had ever been president. I'm honestly shocked my generation isn't way more hosed up
