Honestly do people think these guys are good.... Or at least good enough to be inducted into the rock n roll HOF. Can't believe these guys are getting over much more deserving bands this weekend.

They're one of those bands from the 90's that managed to stay relevant long enough that people thought they had to be considered. They were on a pretty crazy run from around 1996-2004, but have stagnated since American Idiot. They were never my favorite, but there's some quality stuff in their catalog. I don't think they're deserving (at least not yet), but the Hall of Fame is all politics anyways.

I think it's been a while since they have made good music, probably since American Idiot, but I really loved listening to them in the 90s. Overall, I greatly enjoy their music, at least their best stuff.

I still get nostalgic over some of their earlier stuff. The first couple of albums were really solid actual punk rock. They really hit the spot for a sexually frustrated pubescent teen boy. I guess around Warning and Nimrod is when they started to fall off though there are some songs off of those albumms that I still like. They really started to suck bad around the time that American Idiot came out. I haven't listened to anything after that.

In the grand scheme of things they probably aren't any great shakes, but the rock n roll hall of fame is bull shite anyway.

I think they could be good enough to make the HOF one day as rock begins to slowly die

Never listened to much after the major label releases and not sure about the HOF.... but 1039 is in fact a pop punk masterpiece.
