Charelle's rant
Ok i love a good rant especially a hate rant so
here goes!
I hate Avril Lavigne because shes a no good chicken
"loving" dickhead with nothing better to do than
inundate the world with shit house music which she
describes as ROCK. I'm sorry but i have had punkier
things comne out of my ass than Avril Lavigne. I think
she hasno right to describe herself as the modern-day
Sid Vicious because there is NO comparison. I think
that the only reason Avril got a recording contract is
that Canada was sick of hearing her crap vocals they
decided that if they had to listen to her, then the
entire world should have to listen to her. Also that
she cant sing live but has the balls (and i bet
shedoes actually have testicles) to insult people who
can sing. I aint no fan of Britney but she can sing
better than avril. Well yes thanks for letting me
ramble on and stuff like that and remember, Power to
the Poeple, Death To Avril and all her crappy music
which is definetly not PUNK ROCK!
Seth's rant
i remember the first time i heard complicated. i
thought it was gonna be just another britney spears
wanna be with one hit. then my sister told me that she
had seen the video, and told me about how much of a
poser she was. this was coming from my sister so i
wasnt sure if she had the right to call people posers,
so i didnt believe her. then i saw the video. i was
laughing so hard at how badly she wanted to be punk, i
almost fell off my couch.
now as for that quote of "I'm the Sid Vicious of this
generation" or something like that. Someone should tie
her up to a tree and shoot her for that. if she lives,
shoot again. when she might be dead, shoot to make
sure. got extra bullets? well dont let them go to
waste.
once dead, that's when we leave the punishment up to
deedee ramone, joey ramone, joe strummer, "herself 30
years ago", keith moon, and john entwhisle. but i dont
think that only the punk pioneers will be offended.
for god's sake, john lennon would probably beat the
crap outta her, and he was all "give peace a chance"
and weird stuff like that.
David's rant
was tolerant of Avril. until she covered Chop Suey. such an act is unforgivable.
Rot in hell for killing music Miss.Lavinge
Mark's rant
I can't fucking stand her. Shes not going to have an impact on the rock n roll scene like Guns N Roses, Metallica or Led Zepplin. I hate the fact that she uses a guitar as a prop and this is comming from a guitar player its a fucking insult.
Bob's Rant
i think avril lavigne is amazing!! fuck that. avril lavigne is the worse thing to happen to music since the 80's synth era. she takes a social group, in this case skaters and makes a fuck load of cash by singing a song (which i must say i loved, i say loved i mean tolerated, i say tolerated i mean every time i hear 's8er boi' i want to scratch my eyes out with a blunt knife and then have a bath in a
volcano)about some shit to do with skaters. what a fucking sell out, it makes me laugh, then cry. get a fucking life you fake, poppy, ugly drop out.
Lisa's Rant
what to say about avril lavigne? that she's a poseur, that she's not punk? that's already been said. i'm writing to you today about her fans, or avril clones as i call them. i may as well throw in a bit of rants.
so what an original fashion sense she's got! really i'm impressed! NOT! there have been many girls and women, in the music business or not, that have worn ties or not dressed like sluts. and avril clones decide that it's so original that if they dress like her they'll be cool. right? well if the 2 year olds who like her want to think that way, why not let them? after all they're only kids. so is avril, judging not only by her lyrics, but by her spelling. Sk8r Boi? SK8R BOI????!?!! does she think she sounds cool writing a song like that? if she did write it at all, that is. but a real songwriter wouldn't write such crappy lyrics. maybe she should be featured on barney soon. and the way she talks about that song too, how she says it was stuff that she saw happening when she was growing up. my god, what in like 2nd grade? i thought when i heard this interview that the song might have been about high school kids on drugs or teen suicide. then i heard the song. yes i'm sure that happened all the time when she was growing up, her hooking up with "sk8r Bois". and if he's such a punk, what's he doing on Mtv? and what does the ballet girl do with her baby when she goes to Sk8r Boi's show? obviously avril wrote it. 'cause it makes no f*cking sense. maybe she shouldn't have dropped out of school so quick.
another thing that pisses me off is all that she completely insulted punk music everywhere with her image. she seems to think that punk is a trend, like britney's skimpy clothes are a trend. punk is a type of music. her music isn't punk, thus she is not punk. and don't let her claim she didn't say she was. it's right there on her official website: "a skater-punk". the punk is insulting. the skater? please. she was apparently asked to do some cool tricks on the complicated video, but told them "dude, i suck". which she also says quite often. when asked to play her guitar in a live accoustic show, for example. she just called her guitar player over, and he could do most of the work. yet another thing that happens too often: her guitar player doing all of the work. he wrote the guitar part for complicated, and she threw in three words. he wrote a lot of stuff apparently, but he wasn't the only one, which leaves avril among a twenty foot long list of co-writers.
the poor girl didn't win any grammys. the petition worked, i suppose. good. imagine what she must have been like when she heard the clash tribute. "the clash? who are they?". ok she didn't say that, but the so-called "punk rocker chick" was asked if she had ever heard of the sex pistols and answered: "no, and i don't think that's important". well some punk rocker you are. really you deserve a sticker. please stick it right on your mouth so that we can NOT hear from you for 5 minutes.

Right now pop society is clinging to "original" styles. But they are hardly original. They have been around for quite a long time, just looked at with disgust by the pop world. These teeny bopper "im so fucking original" guitar playing idiots like Avril are fulfilling the pop cultures thirst for the "original" appearance. If Avril were so fucking original she'd be wearing things people HAVENT been wearing, she'd be making her own clothes, doing her own thing. I mean, it's not incredibly hard to run to the nearest hottopic and purchase her whole fucking outfit. How original is that?
Secondly, she says she plays guitar, I have never seen her play. She sucks major major ass live and I personally have a very very big problem with her attitude. She drags on and on and on about how shes just being herself, just being original but in that process shes losing herself. Her lyrics could stand to mature, and almost that entire album is based off of ONE GUY. I find that pitiful, that puppy love.. "hehe gotta write I love johnny on my hand" type thing nauseating.
At least Britney Spears admits shes a bubblegum pop whore, whereas Avrils still in denial claiming shes so fucking punk and so fucking original. Original to the pop scene- maybe, but original to the real world, not really. Ooo wow, shes hot, even I'll admit that, but it's sad that people still cant look past appearances. I was a fan of hers, her catchy clingy songs, but upon looking into her, upon reading many articles and interviews I have come to have a painful distaste for her. She used to play country music.. come on..
Kyall's Rant
Where does this bubblehead get the nerve to cover songs like "Chop Suey"? Probably because she can't write a good song on her own. Someone please go sniper at her before she covers "Anarchy In The UK".
Jon's Rant
More and More did my hatred grow for Avril Lavigne and it boiled up inside me. When i was told by a friend over the net she did a Chop Suey cover i wen't ape-shit!.. and when i listend to it.. I went crazy. SOAD are probably the most respected progressive rock groups of our time with such famous singles as Chop Seuy, Aerials etc etc and this punk bitch wannabe, Tries [Key word: Tries] To do a cover of Chop Suey and fails miserabley.
This so called "punk" artist [Which sings pop] has taken a perfectly good SOAD and fucked it up. I wouldn't mind her if she kept her trap shut about "being a punk".. No wait.. I still would hate her guts.. but if she was a pop princess because she wouldnt be making a cock out of herself and constantly contradicting herself and slagging everyone off. One of these days [The sooner the better] She is going to have her face kicked in. And i will laugh, knowing she brought it all onto herself.
~~~Kristina's Rant~~~
Sid Vicious is fucking spinning in his grave because she said that. Yeah, Sex Pistols!!!!
Anyways, during an interview with Ontario's own Toronto Sun, Avril was quoted as saying
"I know there are issues in Iraq. I'm not really a political person."
This is pathetic. She thinks she's punk rock? Does anyone remember that punk rock was originally about politics? It was about the things you say. It was anti-establishment. I was born in fucking '86, and I know that. And she's taking the fucking name "punk rock" and raping it up the ass. I'm so sorry that some turn-around prep is 'complicating' your life, Avril. It must be hard, because you're 'hardcore' Avril. Punk is not about the clothes you wear, and dark eye make-up. It's about having something worthy to say.
~~~Anaconda's Rant~~~
I was a big Avril Lavigne fan until recently. I mailed her at Nettwerk Management 1650 W 2nd Ave, Vancouver, BC V6J 4R3 and after 3 months I got a response. I wanted an autograph picture but what I received was a booklet requesting $27 to join her Backbone fan club. I was furious especially since the fan club doesn't even offer autographs. To join you get useless junk such as pins and stickers plus temporary tattoos. What am I to do with those? I responded by smashing her CD with a rock and mailing it to them at the above address. It pisses me off that fans cannot get an autograph yet they are the ones who pay for their lifestyles. I would like to offer the above address to anyone else who wishes to send a busted CD in the mail to justify being snubbed by industry greed. They need to be humbled.
~~~Chuck's Rant~~~
Your site is awesome. I usually compose my self and try to be a good sport about peoples taste in music but I'm on the internet and it's late so I'm gonna say that I think avril is the biggest piece of shit to hit the music industry in a
while.
Your'e right. I saw her cover of chopsuey and it was a piece of monkey crap. She has desecrated a song by one of the most innovative bands today System of a Down. If she ever covers metallica I'm gonna go to one of her concerts to throw crap at her.
Just want to say that no matter what those pop freaks say to you don't get down because your the one who's right, she's a bad guitar player and shes a marketing ploy. (She's also an ugly piece of garbage)
~~~Sarah Lenz's Rant~~~
My younger sister got this "Life Story" thing on Avril Lavigne last night, well i got bored and decided to read it. (ok some of the questions are actual questions, and im curiouse as to why people think these things so PLEASE e-mail, or leave a note on my notepad wth the answers, you can bash me, you can praise me, whatever you want, id just really like answers.)
Why is avril lavigne so original? there are plenty of bands out there that right all their own music and play their own instruments, why is it all of a sudden people praise her for that. pink and michelle branch write their own music, and theyve been out longer than avril has.
avril didnt really CHANGE the face of music, what has she done thats so impressive. the only people at her concerts are 8 year old girl scouts with their soccer moms.
her cd got good reviews in most magazines, yes i am a GC fan but this kinda pissed me off. GC made a good cd, benji and joel wrote all the music and lyrics, they played the instruments (well not joel but you know what i mean.) they wrote a song that EVERYONE can relate to (lifestyles) i mean theres gotta have been at least one celebrity you where like "shutup" to, that song had meaning and yet
the avril cd got good reviews,"her lyrics are beyond her years" one review said "he was a skater boy she said see ya later boy" those are beyond her years!!!!!!!!!! what the fuck!!!and she didnt even write the songs herself, she
CO-wrote them, she could have added one word for all we know.
"Im The Sid Viciouse For A New Generation" that was one of the most idiotic quotes ive ever heard. i am a fan of the sex pistols, but anyone who says something like that is basiclly saying "im a drug addict and a murderer."
ok this isnt from avril its from the life story thing i was reading. "avril imitators adopt such gear as fake tattoos, tank tops, mens ties, multiple bracelets, and wristbands"
WHAT THE FUCK is that supposed to mean, that if i whear a tank top, a bunch of bracelets, and a wristband, that im imitating this bitch!!! thats fucking ignorent. oh and so were all clear avril didnt start the tie craze, ties where
really big in '62 and '63 for women and girls to whear. and then gwen steffani (i think i spelled that wrong) started whearing them.
why did avril lie about her tattoos? (if you wanna get a henna tattoo, get one, but dont lie and say its real) she was on some show and said they were real, a few (like 3) days later she was on another show and they asked her about the tats. she said she got them removed (it takes a lot longer than that to remove a tattoo), then she finally said they where fake!!! that was stupid.
ok i think you saw this comming, but WHY THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE CAN PLAY THE GUITAR!!??
"i started to scratch the strings and the day a sound came out i was amazed i still cant tell you the names of the chords i play but nevermind it doesnt really matter that i cant read music or even understand all the music that im playing"
that was a direct quote, HOW HARD IS IT TO MAKE A SOUND COME OUT OF A GUITAR?!! She claimes she writes the music and lyrics (which we know she doesnt) what does she do write it like this: "uh 2nd chord from the bottom" HA!
if shes gonna lie (which she shouldnt) she should have her lies make sence at least.
and this is my last rant about avril for now. "i just write songs right away i dont spend 5 million hours on it dissecting it when i start the lyrics i just write them all the way through"
REALLY ALL THE SONGS AND THEY RYME TOO!!!! (Ah sarcasm) i just thought this was a funny quote.
