Sure, it's great for what it is. I know I liked it when I was in Jr. High, but why are you spending the time defending it? It's sure as hell not that good and its inane to spend time "defending" pop music when it is both indefensible (because in the grand scheme of music it's generally pointless and purposely disposable) and not in need of defending (because in the grand scheme of everything beyond music, it doesn't matter if it's pointless or not). Plus Thurston's point really wasn't that Avril and Mayer suck, it was that he and Yoko can rock harder than them, which is entirely true and easily observable.
Also, this thread makes me wonder.. does anyone know of any rock bands around now that are doing something really new and fresh? I mean, even the addition of electro shit wasn't new since it had all been done before in the 80's, so I'm at a loss.
