I completely agree with you. Pop-punk at best. Y'know, I like the Ramones now and then... I own the anthology. But I think if I listened to them as often as I did Pistols, that I'd have to blow my brains out from that over-synth'd sound. I'm going to make a bold statement here and say, back in their day, that was pop-punk - but would it be going too far to say that the Ramones back in the day were equivalent to pop-punk today? Now I think Fall Out Boy sucks, but if you put in some margin of error and compare the time periods... opinions?
