Punky Bruster (Devin Townsend) - Metal dilemma

[NitroCoasters]

These are almost the same chords as American Idiot by Green Day..... Devin Townsend: 1996. Green Day: 2004...

Devin: just OVER 9000!! views

Green Day = 7 million views

.... Yes... this is a sad, SAD world

[TheRealScarr]

He's not making fun of Punk here, he's making fun of shitty "punk" bands that are nothing but poseurs cashing in on the scene, which is 90% of the "Punk" bands out there today.

[bugasmike]

fuckin live

[BubuSnow93]

First rule of parody: to make a good parody, you must be able to make well the object of the parody.

Devin can do it :D

[lasoogneypubes]

I know he's making fun of punk, but this song is actually really catchy lol.

[CyanideSovereign]

Who the fuck is Yngwie?

[Onslaughttitude]

@CyanideSovereign Yngwie Malmsteen, virtuoso guitarist and also kind of a prick.

[CyanideSovereign]

@Onslaughttitude Oh ok cheers.

[TheRealScarr]

@Onslaughttitude More than kind of a prick. He's a full on dildo-licking dick sniffer.

[neocenobyte]

THAT is the point: Dev's parody is way better than the neo-punk horsesht that was coming out during the late 90s.

Truly a voice in the wilderness.

[sthofman]

Even though I like some punk rock like The Offspring and Green Day, the lyrics are so true to me :P Still can't believe people rate Green Day's guitar over Yngwie

[TheRealScarr]

@sthofman The Offspring & Green Day haven't been punk in over 13 years.

[metalwizard13]

@IVIJ8790 yes I'm sure Yngwie Malmsteen and his extensive Ferrari collection feel "owned"........and besides how does that have anything to do with this vid?

[istarion14]

Give me one more metal yell!!

[FickJaIchLiebeKiffen]

@istarion14 WOAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AH OAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[leambambam]

wow this is amazing

[RiderAndKallen]

Devin's parody of Punk Rock is better than a slew of real punk bands.

[scottiec7]

[skorli]

This reminds me a lot of Ziltoid.

GEE, ARE THEY BY THE SAME GUYS ER SUMMTHIN?

[SPARTANN09]

@skorli Are you saying that the FOURTH DIMENSIONAL ZILTOID THE OMNISCIENT, he who is so omniscient that if there was to be TWO OMNISCIENCES, he would be BOTH - used to be in a punk rock band?

Great Scott.

[umbilicaltapeworm]

@SPARTANN09 it's pretty much just making funny fun of punk...

[SSHGL]
