Not necessarily because it takes a lot of talent to make a long song. So many artists not capable of it just succeed in boring the pants of people *cough* Muse *cough*

The Cure have some amazing singles but I can’t get into their albums.

But like going from the Ramones to The Clash to The Hives you can maybe pick a song or 2 from their discography that sound kinda alike but they vary differently.
And as Pioneers of punk I don't see Green Day as a leading contender. Bands like Fear, Black Flag and The Descendants would be a more suitable candidate. As far as radio friendly punk yeah Green Day takes the cake.
Oh and for another hot take. I don't get the deal with Cake? Seems like its just an even more boring version of The Modern Lovers and because of Cake we got that Hobo Johnson fellow. At least Hobo has enthusiasm.

I mean if you want to stick to the genre of Rock, then sure you can make cases for song length. But Muse can be boring as hell regardless of song length (even though I love their first 4 albums). When you have so many other genre's like jazz or ambient or classical or hip-hop where the length of a song just has zero relevance at all.
Cake sound nothing like the Modern Lovers, what the hell?

Deep Purple > Sabbath w/ Ozzy > Blue Cheer
When it comes to who did what for Heavy Metal as a whole.
Also Dio sucks.
Pioneers of punk still LMFAO
You’re still at least a decade too late
Maybe try the Stooges

I'd argue there might be a few albums prior (Schoolly's debut) but otherwise, I don't think that's that hot a take is it?

Ok.. proto-punk, not like the 'real' pioneers like Linkin Park and My Chemical Romance.

Prince discography stopped being amazing with Love Sexy. Nothing after that is relevant or memorable.
Heavy Metal is the worst music genre and the 80s are a black hole in rock history because of it.

I'm thinking of songs like I'm Straight and Cleopatra. I think it has to do with the overall delivery of the vocal then anything else.
But I haven't delved into many of their songs so I'm also alright being wrong

that's fair, I can see that. musically nothing alike.
Stooges are still pre-punk imo. Same as MC5 and Velvet Underground.Pioneers of punk still LMFAO

Pioneers of punk are The Ramones, The Buzzcocks, The Clash, The Slits, The Dead Boys, The Damned, The Jam, Siouxsie and the Banshees and X-Ray Spex.

Also, almost all reggae sounds the same.

Man the idea of someone thinking Jello Biafra, Danzig, D. Boon, H.R., Curt Kirkwood, Falco, etc. sound like Green Day, much less sound the same is cracking me up.
This thread is fun, I hope everyone continues to have fun in here and doesn't take stuff personally.

I thought this was Hot Takes thread not Obvious Observations.
No but seriously the Reggae genre is all the same.

Honestly I think people like me who at least sort of disagree might be the hot take!
