Your avatar is incredible.

[x1onexwo1fx]

i can choose both? but what if i don't listen to either?

yeah, i'm totally missing out, aren't i...

[Steeeve Perry]

Weezer. Especially if you only own their first two albums like me.

[sleepyseanzzz]

really? how is weezer losing?

[Lu Galasso]

I cheated and voted for both bands since I can't decide between those two, way too difficult!

[Poe-tryGirl]

The Get Up Kids

[Kurt Retenauer]

Weezer.

The Blue Album and Pinkerton alone top anything TGUK has done, but every TGUK album is better than the rest of Weezer's discography.

Edit: Second thoughts on that, haha.

The Blue Album > Pinkerton > Something To Write Home About > Guilt Show > The Green Album > Eudora > The Red Album > All other TGUK > Make Believe > Maladroit

[seraph1214]

The Blue Album > Pinkerton > STWHA > Four Minute Mile > Guilt Show > The Green Album > Eudora > Maladroit > Make Believe > The Red Album

[jmirand1]

I voted for both.

The Blue Album > Pinkerton > STWHA > Four Minute Mile > Guilt Show > The Green Album > Eudora > Maladroit > Make Believe > The Red Album

I agree, except I would put Maladroit in between STWHA and Four Minute Mile. That's right. I fucking love Maladroit. Such an underrated album.

No! Maladroit is awesome!

[Kurt Retenauer]

No! Maladroit is awesome!
Meh, only liked Dope Nose, Keep Fishin, and Burndt Jam(I think is the name?)

[Paulb-182]

Something To Write Home About is the best album either band has ever released for me, so Get Up Kids win

[jwicklun]

Both. I've been listening to weezer more, but the get up kids were very influencial

[tentativetitle]

Nobody beats the get up kids

[I'm DC]

The Get Up Kids... They're home town heros

[bard]

hands down, weezer.

they're still releasing solid pop/alternative albums. anyone who says otherwise can't let go of their blue/pinkerton albums. get over it.

1. maladroit
2. pinkerton
3. blue
4. make believe
5. red
6. green

[inthemidst]

Both! Agreed, your avatar is awesome!

[Sic Transit Zeb]

Weezer is so overrated.

Pinkerton is great though and so is the blue album buttt other than that? Pass.

[songydarko]

Tguk!

[George-Michael]

I voted for both

[werealldudes19]

[HometownHero]

really? how is weezer losing?
Because The Get Up Kids are better

[bard]

[sleepyseanzzz]

Because The Get Up Kids are better

[HometownHero]

they're not.
Yes huh

[sleepyseanzzz]

Yes huh

nuh uh

[sticky1013]

i got to go with the get up kids. ive never really liked weezer. let the hatred begin

[kdefrisc]

Because The Get Up Kids are better

Something To Write Home About is the best album either band has ever released for me, so Get Up Kids win

Both of these

[VIVALAMATT]

Each band is great and they were both emo before emo was a term, but damn Weezer is just straight better, even though TGUK were super influential on me.

[TheClockSounds]

The Get Up Kids, idk I never really got into weezer much like I have the blue album and pinkerton but I never thought weezer to be that good

[joshman]

the get up kids!!!

[Zack Haughton]

Easily TGUK for me, STWHA and FMM are amazing.

The Blue Album and Pinkerton are more of phases than classics for me.

[xmicxcorex]

really? how is weezer losing?


the simplest answer to this could be:
The Get Up Kids are a more commonly enjoyed band on absolutepunk.net

of course, then we have the less descriptive, yet more common ap.net answer:
TGUK>>>>>weezer.


And then the "pompous douchebag" answer:
Fall Out Boy.

And then there's the already given answer that I agree with:
Because The Get Up Kids are better
