    It would be more like "pop-punk" if you will. Same genre as Blink and good charlotte and simple plan.

    i think they could have been punk at one time maby when they were not that well known
    just like the old afi but just like most pop punk bands
    sell out to the big fancy labels and change to soft music
    and chang there style of music it will never be THE EXPLOITED for sure

    a lot of people in here have different thoughts... most agree that Green Day did meet 'Punk' status at one time, but then sold out and went pop
