It's Only Over When... "This is a song that is basically driven by a repetitive synthesizer riff and contains only a handful of lyrics...which makes it all the more "punk" in my opinion. A band doing what they want to do instead of conforming to what is expected of them is the ultimate affirmation of individuality. Unfortunately, there are "watchdogs" out there that keep a sharp eye on punk bands and determine if they are "punk enough". If you write a song that exceeds four minutes in length or throw in an acoustic guitar or synthesizer, you could be in for a serious backlash. You're apparently not "punk" enough, as if those hecklers actually hung out with Iggy Pop and the Ramones back in the 70s and helped draw up the rules for punk rock. You also can't call anybody a "sellout" if you live at the mall and shop for your precious punk gear at Hot Topic. But back to the song
