The 9 Biggest Wusses in Rock Today

I actually quite enjoy panic at the disco, they have talent, though they do deserve to be on this list. i dispise almost everyone else on this list though. But yea, guys lighten up and stop being a bunch of stupid wankers.

Hey, look at all the hardcore badasses, just waiting to pounce on those unsuspecting Panic at the Disco fans in the comments section.

Hey guys, brief lesson on music genres. "Emo" means emotional. As is, their songs must be emotional for them to be an emo band. Bright Eyes is therefore "emo" (and very talented). Sufjan Stevens is emo. Panic at the Disco are not emo. They write ironically detached, disco-influenced songs - more or less the opposite of emo, in fact - or else their new album, which has a retro '70s pop feel. Again, about as far from emo as you can get.

Yes, little goth eighth-graders who think they know all about the cold cruel world because they keep getting wedgies are annoying. But you know what's more annoying? People who don't know ANYTHING about music and hear a name like Fall Out Boy (speaking of ironic detachment. Their songs have names like "Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of this Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued." Sound very emotional to you?) and jump on it, typing, "OMG FUKKING EMO FAGGITS MAKE GOOD MUZIK U GUYS SUK DIK OMG" to prove how tough and old-school rock they are.

I don't even like Fall Out Boy. But I hate all these faux-rockers who insult them and their fans just because they themselves don't know jack about music. Grow up.

and it's definitely true that Conor Oberst is trying waaay too f*****g hard to be Bob Dylan. i may like bright eyes, but even i want to kick his ass sometimes.

i can't believe has ever heard of Voxtrot, especially know of them enough to add them to any Cracked article.

i love most of the bands on here, but yeah, i can see how many people think they're pansies. ha.

Panic! At The Disco name their songs from Chuck Palaniuk books. You know, the guy that wrote Fight Club (one of the un-wussiest books/movies ever).

You gotta give Brandon Flowers some credit though, he's more and gives a quality of sex to some of his music and he's mormon. The b***h that made twilight should take lessons from him.

I think Kele of Bloc Party should be on the list though. Just listen to his vocals.

I probably should've waited to read the next page to post comment. Ahwell.

Voxtrot, Conor Oberst, and Sufjan Stevens are good. Again, leave them be!

Hey now, Belle and Sebastian are a very good band. You leave them be!

no doubt the writer listens to a lot of indie rock. but never, never, f**k no, never was p!atd ever indie. there's another word for them, gay. honestly it's like someone putting a 13 year old down syndrome boy's stream of consciousness to music. same goes for the academy is, and every other s****y pop-punk band with atrocious haircuts.
oh, and i actually rather enjoyed the james bond theme by chris cornell. he isn't a wuss, he's just getting old. i mean, look at neil young's recent stuff.

Look at the emo boys/little fags going all upset about Panic At The Disco being included in the list !!! I can't imagine what level of pathetic you have to be to actually go on, bother to post a stand-up-for-my-band comment for the gayest, ultra p***y band EVER - I mean LOOK AT THEM FFS ! ROFL

BTW - Moby does look ridiculous, I'm pretty sure It's actually a scientific fact written somewhere in wikipedia, but some of his songs are just pretty f*****g cool.

Oberst is a wuss, but he's a cute wuss.

Yeah, good thing they were bird wings, iwasinfinite. Because those are SO MANLY.

thankyou candystriper, i agree. but PANIC at the disco needs to f****n die.

I mean, I'm pretty sure butterflies don't have feathers.

Uh correction, I went to that Sufjan concert, and they weren't butterfly wings, they were bird wings. I don't think butterflies have feathers.

Okay, in an earlier comment I called you guys hardcore indie music lovers. I was clearly wrong. You guys are a f*****g encyclopedia of indie music.

It's unbelievable that the same people who write about how everyone who used to be cool is now a complete b***h (see every Cracked article for an example) actually knows who Daniel Johnston is. My hat is off to you, Cracked, for being very musically literate.

And sadly, completely retarded. Bright Eyes (Conor Oberst) and Daniel Johnston sound nothing alike. NOTHING. Bright Eyes covered one of Johnston's songs (Devil Town) but the similarities end there. Whatever.
