No, no, the Go-Go's were pop punk lite. Just overproduced. Green Day is somewhere inbetween the Clash and the Go-Go's. Without cleavage as an extra selling point.
(Don't believe me? Take "Vacation" down an octave or so and turn the synth into a second guitar. You'll sprain your brain. For the full effect get someone like Lemmy from Motorhead to do the vocals ;) )
I guess I always thought the whole lack of energy thing was somehow part of the act. Kind of like Joey Ramone appearing to be only still standing because the mike stand's in the way for an hour and a half...then again, that might not have been acting...
