+186 It's silly when someone claims to like rock & all they listen to is Nickelback and Paramore, amirite?

It irks me when people think things must be "hard" just because it's called rock. Rock doesn't always been black clothes, screaming, cannibal corpse out Manson type stuff. Let people like what they like.

First, doesn't always been? Second, nobody said that it meant that at all. Nickelback and Paramore are just shit bands. Plus you can't really claim to like an entire genre and then only listen to a couple of bands whose music some would argue fits in that genre.

Saying that bands are shit doesn't remove them from their kind of music - Nickelback and Paramore are still rock bands whether you enjoy listening to their music or not.

Nickelback's gone pop. They were definitely rock before, but now, not so much... they changed a ton.

I would consider nickelback and paramore as pop rock or possibly alternative.

Paramore used to not be pop... They started out very punk rock-ish, but if you listen to any of their new singles it sounds like everything else on the radio.
