hi y'all, i was having a discussion with a few guys about the Hypocricy in pop metal fans hating boybands - saying how these "pop rock" fans shouldnt really be hating on Backstereet Boys and O Town cos these two boybands have also come off the Max Martin Swedish conveyor belt and have similar melodic rock undertone to their catchy poppy tunes.

my buddies being the 80's metalheads obviously disagreed. what do you all think??
