martinduthie Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 They are both fantastic and successful bands in my opinion and i love them both.. but i thought it would be interesting to see what other people think of them.. and whos more successful..so Blink 182 or Green Day?

Acey Trixx Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 green day..hands down...never written a bad song really..blink do have a good few duffers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam_b Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Both utter piles of wank IMO, overrated to the extreme. I couldn't see a band like that in a massive arena with a novelty stage show and call it good punk rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxton's Superb Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 NEITHER!!!!! though if forced to say...Greenday i guess*I hate Greenday!* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scott cs. Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 i don't see why the two are always compared. Green Day helped shape the East Bay scene and still help out bands from the area. Billie Joe and Mike Dirnt also play in smaller bands, such as Pinhead Gunpowder (B-J) and The Frustrators (Mike). all the money made from their Lookout! releases is kept by the label, so you could say that Green Day have paid their dues.Blink don't really do that, but then they're a different kettle of fish. Dude Ranch is a pretty good album tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threeornothing Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Green Day. No contest. One are the influences, the other are the influenced.Interestingly enough, Blink 182 have been at it for 13 years now....any current bands you think will still be around in 13 years time? I'd put a wager on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottST Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Green Day.....they're the band that got me into rock music.Blink are excellent too but nowhere near green day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Tim Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 well i like both. but probably prefer blink 182 even though they have some shitty songs, but i seem to enjoy listening to them more, but not the shitty songs. green day are what the crankys would call fandabedozy though.

Camie Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Green DayListen to'1069/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours' which is probably their best release and 'Dookie' and you will see why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therandomblonde Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Blink 182 all the way - The first band i got into properly and i listened to Enema for a year and half non-stop. They've progressed and i love every one of their albums.Saw them live this year finally and it was awesome - one of the best times of my life Although i'd say greenday have had more commercial success!
