Ben Weasel is such a doucheclown it isn't even funny.

hey_ska (November 29, 2010)

I think these guys put him in his place though, and it was a good EP to boot.

misfit4me (November 29, 2010)

Oh, god yes they did. It was absolutely hilarious. I WANNA WANNA WANNA WANNA MAKE OUT WITH YOOOOUUUU

froggerwithmylife (November 29, 2010)

I thought the EP just sounded like whining. Like all their music.

misfit4me (November 30, 2010)

You're whining about whining about whining. In order of Ben Weasel whining about Max Levine, Max Levine whining about Ben Weasel whining about Max Levine, and you whining about Max Levine whining about Ben Weasel whining about Max Levine. It's the most intricate cycle of uselessness ever. However, Max Levine wins for having a kickass band and a sense of humor. The other two parties involved hold neither.

froggerwithmylife (November 30, 2010)

You're whining about me whining about ah fuck it.

misfit4me (November 30, 2010)

Well now you ruined the only part I was enjoying about the whining. Dick (see, I'm whining again, we can start all over here).

Blades (November 29, 2010)

Weasel was most definitely owned (and U2 is shite)

feeeding5000 (November 29, 2010)

For the love of Grodd, everyone needs to get "OK Smartypants" now! Hopefully the re-recorded songs have no horn section, haha. Absolutely phenomenal band, Spoonboy is a pillar of the DC scene, and they are all-around great dudes.

thegimper (November 30, 2010)

No horn section? That's like the worst idea ever.

notfeelingcreative (November 30, 2010)

Agreed 100 % but when the hell did you crawl out of your cave?

theproblemwithfire (November 30, 2010)

seriously that shit is stupid. it's no better than those dumb ass boat sail pants from hot topic of crust punks wearing jean jackets.

what does heat have to do with wearing ridiculously short cut offs? i ride a bike year round but i dont hack my short legs 3 inches from my balls.

punkcdsampler (November 29, 2010)

My idea, douchenozzles!

boobthemusicindustry (November 29, 2010)

Anyone who ever gets the chance to see "The Bepstein Show" should do it hands down

jingle (November 30, 2010)

this. and on a side note, if anyone hasn't heard OK Smartypants (I assume you have if you're reading this interview) you should check it out, it is absolutely amazing.

irish_punk_is_gimmickry (November 29, 2010)

those cutoff jorts are like the wallet chain for the fest scene. shits gross and you all look alike.................................................

regulartrite (November 29, 2010)

Thank You! I thought I was the only one who thought it was stupid, although, when I asked the singer of the Dopamines why it was such a popular thing he said it was because it's hot (therefore shorts) and they ride bikes so nothing gets caught in the wheels. My question still is: why cut-off shorts?

punkcdsampler (November 29, 2010)

Cuz they did it on Always Sunny.

regulartrite (November 29, 2010)

I was thinking more Tobias from Arrested Development

Dear Punknews,

The new pop-up ads, you know, the Mastercard one, is ridiculous. First you give us that Escape the Fate bullshit, and now this. I really wouldn't care, but it got around my Adblock Plus on multiple occasions and I was forced to manually add filters each time. You've wasted at least ten seconds of my life.......in addition to the hundreds of hours I've wasted on this site over the years in the normal fashion.

Chadreligion (November 29, 2010)

Thank You... this thing fucking sucks, and it's annoying....
Punk Rock doesn't have a bank account...

Misanthropee (November 29, 2010)

I've been shouting this from the rooftops for a couple years now and no one has paid attention. How do ya like me now?

NOSCRIPT!

In short, motherfucking install it!

Babrook (November 30, 2010)

I too enjoy robbing free websites of their main source in revenue.

killtaker (November 30, 2010)

I know that the site needs revenue but I have to agree. That Mastercard add is annoying as fuck.

cyanotic (November 29, 2010)

That video is great. The part with the toilet had me dying.

smyd (November 30, 2010)

I remember playing a backyard show with these guys 8 years ago. It's awesome to see they're still around. Really genuine people.
