Bull. Punk is all about power. If it weren't, then kindly explain to me why I have never heard of something like a punk-ballad.
And you can't tell me that bad playing (as in low technical ability) will actually yield in any good music. There's only so much sonic abuse a person can take.
And I think that if you don't put heart and emotion into any song, you should be recording it anyway. Music, like all art, is meant to convey emotion. If it isn't there, what's the point?

You haven't been listening to enough Guns N' Roses then, I can only assume.
I don't know what you mean by [...], but GNR goes beyond noodly guitar solos and if you tell me that "Appetite For Destruction" and songs like "Estranged" and "Don't Cry" have no heart, I just won't believe you.
And Axl wasn't a lyrical genius, but then again, "Love Me Do" isn't exactly Shakespeare either.
