A band originating in
Wichita Falls, Texas. After releasing ROCK ON HONORABLE ONES!!! they moved to Denton, Texas. in 2000, LETS DO IT FOR JOHNNY came out with many hilarious songs including their first single, "The Bitch Song". in 2002, they released DRUNK ENOUGH TO DANCE with 2 singles: "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" and "Emily".
Bowling For Soup then re-released the album with "
Punk Rock 101", which is the reason why many people think they are poseurs. In mid 2004, Bowling For Soup released their biggest and best album, A HANGOVER YOU DON'T DESERVE. It contained singles "1985", "Almost", and more recently, "Ohio (Come Back To Texas)". This album was VERY similar to Blink-182 and
Sum 41's style of just having fun except a little less obnoxious.
A lot of people hate this band for a few reasons:
1: The overplaying of the song "1985" on the radio.
2: They're WAY too busy bitching about what's punk and what's not
3: They just don't like them, which is acceptable, but some people make fun of others for listening to "fake music"
So,
Bowling for Soup is a great band. They just need more fans.
