I agree, Avril certainly isn't punk rock, but this is a fun little pop album, with a little bit of wit and loud guitars. Not my usual kind of thing, but I thought it worth a review. Check out my website.

Well, I wasn't aware that you had to be "a self-loathing, suicidal, drug-addicted whore" to be punk rock (since neither Joey Ramone, nor Joe Strummer, nor Johnny Rotten, nor Ian MacKaye were any of those things)...however, even if you lift those criteria, Avril Lavigne still isn't punk rock, so it's neither here nor there.
The actual reason I'm commenting is to recommend one of these new releases:
which is one of the most fascinating of the year so far. Avant-garde jazz/ambient fusion. Awesome.

I can't speak authoritatively to how every single adjective there applies to every single punk, but you don't see how Johnny Rotten for one is FULL of self-loathing? Consider just the famously rotten teeth, for starters. Hey, he doesn't figure he deserves to have good teeth. That's putting a pretty low value on yourself.

I'm assuming that was a joke (sometimes, Ally, you make it hard to tell!), partially because Rotten is maybe the most enthralled-with-himself rock star this side of Jagger.

i second mike... it's not that rotten despises himself... despite the "i wish i could die" mantra of early pil... it's that he hates everything around him so much, and maybe that's where the "self-loathing" you pick up comes from. of course, it could just be an act, which is most certainly is in some way.
and al, we all know that your understanding of punk rock is... at best, simplistic and minimal. which is just what you would say about punk rock, isn't it?

The only CD worth picking up on 4/17/2007 was Spells by The Comas
7 - Mike
Nine Inch Nails delivers, as expected. Bucky was surprisingly good. Avril's hott, who cares what she sounds like!
