I don't see a point in you.

As stated last time, after long debates we left AFI and The Offspring off the list as AFI were never pop punk, and used to be punk, whereas Offspring for the majority of their albums have been punk.

So keep them off ;)

[j0nmcc]

will people stop saying its pointless? its not. its really not.

Its so people know what is "pop punk" and what is not, so butt out. :p:

andrew (as well as Funeralforafrie ) have done a great job putting it together.

So, say someone liked a few pop-punk bands. They didn't know of any others, so they look at the list, pick a band, see what they sound like, and probably like them. That's the point.

[ndat]

we should put them in clasification by what other bands they sound similar to. That would probally make the list alot more relevant to people.

[m3e6oHocK]

add punchline

[dougiecrystals]

how bout weezer ..........

[atreyurock1022]

please take the ramones off this list....

[FatKidsOnMopeds</3]

the ramones are pop punk, at least in my eyes

does everyone agree or should I take them off?

[m3e6oHocK]

dont take off the ramones,

add gob and goldfinger

[Dick Cheney]

Buzzc*ks , Vandals

[Andrewbiles]

Yeah, leave the Ramones on.
How come the emo list one has been locked? Just as I remember a couple more it closes.

EDIT: [Spunge] are ska from what I remember.
Alkaline Trio should really be on here rather than the emo list.
Ted Leo & The Pharmacists are more Alternative than pop punk.
Add on Orange Island and Agent Orange.

:cheers:

[pensivepunker]

alkaline trio plays a little bit of both emo and pop-punk

[RHCP king]

greenday

[pensivepunker]

already up there

[Rush002112]

i would say weezer definatly should be added

[threat]

take alkaline trio off at this moment, and add sr-71 cause their new album is very popish... even though i still like them

[Al_The_Killer]

alkaline trio is pop-punk

[punk1918]

Green Day has the most hits of any band on that list

[musicman13]

Hey, Bennett. It's me, John Biddle from Franklin. Sup?

[musicman13]

nice list but you might want to listen to some more so that you can reccomend some more.

[musicman13]

you should have autopilot off on the list. they're an awesome punk rock band

[bonham333]

if The Ramones were pop punk, life would cease to exist, but it goes on so they're not...

[checkered stars]

sum 41 used to be pop-punk, but from their new album, they're like -- modern rock now.

[viva_la_rock]

the Ramones should not be on the list

[checkered stars]

Motion City Soundtrack.. ?

[TUMFP]

id say Alk 3 is emo-influenced punk rock, i would say the riffs and straight forward music jus doesnt sound poppy.... i would also say Avril with her new stuff is Pop/Rock..................... and the ramones back then pop-punk ceased to exist......ramones are straight punk I would say, if i am wrong then i guess i like pop-punk which i never thought i ever would but anywayz the Ramones rock

[MrLucky77713]

Ramones STARTED pop-punk. The name simply wasn't around. Get over it. It's true. It isn't like pop-punk is an insult.

Yeah, I agree. Ya know who's better than all these horrible and gay pop-punk bands? Green Day! I'm sure that's why you have a Green Day quote in your sig. Dipshit.

p.s. No offence to Green Day. They're the shiznit.

Anyway, what about the Movielife?

[vinniebeast]

greenday

[Bonzo99]

Alrite i personally dont think MxPx or Alkaline Trio are pop-punk now good charlotte and all that or course

[StuckWithSlappy]

i dont agree with The Offspring or Agent Orange on the list, but good work to whoever made the list

[MrLucky77713]

MxPx is, and while Alkaline Trio bends genres, they aren't pop-punk.

[Bonzo99]

I totally agree....

[Mid-Day]

good list...i might conceder checkign out some of bands on there....if i haven't already...lol...yes i kno it wasn't funny...:D

[bajeda]

Is Ghoti Hook pop-punk? i dont like much pop-punk but they are pretty good, they just sound like they might fall under this category.

[educatedrebel]

dude............can you please put a star on avril lavigne,she's recommendable too.....

[kissmybass]

what about finch?

[Vicious Sid]

Originally posted by educatedrebel

Andrew only recommends bands he's personally heard and likes. If he were to recommend every band someone on this site liked, the whole star thing would lose its value. And, at the risk of sounding like a kiss-ass, I must say that Andrew has a very respectable taste in music.

[SilenceEvolves]

^ Kiss as<e>s.

:p:

[bajeda]

Anyone know what genre ghoti hook falls under??

[TOOdrunkTOfook]

green day is the shit and shoud be in the studio making moore albums

[Vicious Sid]

^They are making a new album. And don't spam.

[skater_chick101]

i like busted. they are sorta pop punk

[NoExit]

Please be joking

Emo/Screamo

[S.O.T.Y.]

You like Busted?? Please, please say you are joking.

[S.O.T.Y.]

Also, add Bodyjar to the list.

[punkstar109]

The F Ups are a pop punk band not on the list. they're on the warped tour this year. Check out "I Dont Know"

[Vicious Sid]

What about Fallout Boy?

[mbx22]

You've got to be kidding me. How can you not list Green Day as a starred band. They are without question the best pop-punk band ever. What's up with that??

[Vicious Sid]

Taken from my original post answering the exact same question:

"Andrew only recommends bands he's personally heard and likes. If he were to recommend every band someone on this site liked, the whole star thing would lose its value. And, at the risk of sounding like a kiss-ass, I must say that Andrew has a very respectable taste in music."

Read before you post. And what was the point of quoting the entire list?

[Clashpunk182]

Im not sure if you would classify them as exactly pop-punk, but I think you should put Steriogram on there.

[Clashpunk182]

Umm...Avril Lavigne isn't really pop-punk...pop-rock if anything. Sorry, Im a bit picky.

[Clashpunk182]

Please add ghoti hook!

[punkrokker182]

if you have the ramones you might as well add the sex pistols and the clash... you have to draw the line between pop punk and punk somewhere.

[dylan_f1989]

I think you need to take Agent Orange of since they were a SoCal DYI Political Punk Band and The Vandals and someelse i forgot.

[Poopafartis]

how can you recomend crappy blink 182 and not green day???? that's not sanitary!

[MrLucky77713]

Not the Clash. Not the Sex Pistols. They weren't in the pop-punk style. With the Pistols, the only separation was that it was more TRYING to be poli-punkers or just straight punk than it was anything else. Besides, Johnny Rotten is no pop-punk vocalist.

Being a SoCal DYI poli-punk band doesn't get you on this list...

The Clash were more of an experimental punk band if you ever heard the stuff on London Calling and Joe's solo work.

I say keep the Ramones because they INVENTED the genre.

[punklege]

uh the buzz****s are true punk actually!

[harm0n20]

pretty good list. but how bout NoFX? i believe that they are pop-punk.

[Gc_Sp_pUnkcHIcK]

green dayd new album is coming out soon i can't wait

[Gc_Sp_pUnkcHIcK]

day's* sorry my keyboard is screwed up

[StuckWithSlappy]

The Frustrators should be added to this list

[strider_hein]

u got no hawk nelson

[definiteminoret]

hey, what genre is the offspring

[rockout4ever]

avril lavigne totally like rox. She is way better at playing music than any of u. And to all you who want her dead thats 2 bad cause shes going to be around a while.

[IlikeTheSKA]

Well, the Pietasters ARE NOT pop-punk, at all, or close to it. They are a ska band.

and Agent Organge? wtf? NO. They were a early punk band from Cali with surf surf influences. NOT pop-punk.

[HigherGround]

i think the ramones is true punk, not pop punk

[guitar_dude07]

i think weezer should be on there... some of there stuff is pop punk.

[S.O.T.Y.]

Newb, stop spamming up the thread. No one cares if you like her. And so this isn't spam, will you please add Bodyjar??

[DakotaFloyd182]

Add Box Car Racer, Under the Weather, Sherwood, and Relient K...and correct Sloppy MeatEaters if you will...sorry, I'm picky about its proper capitalization. :P

[Rikifeld]

Some could say that Avril Lavigne doesn't belong her.
I saw her on the top of the list with no * recomended.
I agree she don't belong here...

But to supprise most - I would place her to Modern Rock,
mainly because of her live performances.

And Green Day Would definetly go to punk.

[reggieiscool]

how about reggie and the full effect?

But hey good list.

[DarKnightBender]

the ramones aren't pop punk r they?

[worzell]

If Avril Lavigne is on there then where the hell are Busted? There just the male version of her...

[tylerishot]

wow... i never'd thought that none more black were pop punk/emo... whatever

[dahllar]

Add: Senses Fail, Armor for Sleep, Split Habit, The Early November, Bouncing Souls, Student Rick, Spitafield, Plain White T's, Fall Out Boy, Lola Ray, Coheed and Cambria

[punkrockdude2]

all american rejects are emo

[hardrock1315]

the list is pretty good, but the ramones aren't really pop-punk, i mean they were the first punk band (and don't say it was the sex pistols)

[tylerishot]

...off the list as AFI were never pop punk, and used to be punk,

So keep them off ;)

AFI used to be punk? what are they now?

[IlikeTheSKA]

Originally posted by hardrock1315

No they werent. Neither of them were.

[MrLucky77713]

Neither were first, and the Ramones flat out invented pop-punk.

Avril and Busted = pop-punk or pop, depending on what you think. I never dug their stuff anyway, so I care little about it.

Green Day are also pop-punk. They brought the genre to the mainstream and gave pop-punk its name.

[travel sized]

what about slick shoes? they're pretty good.

[pinholes89]

go greenday, and if the band is famous like the ramones, therefore they're popular, and hence the name pop-punk, so in theory all of those bands are punk, but popular

[philcowan]

add fallout boy, wakefield, and sum 41 was pretty pop punk, and then there is probably about 543625 other bands that you could add but its ok

[LazyGuitar]

I'd have to disagree on the grounds of "recommending" Good Charlotte, All American Rejects and NFG.

That's just crazy **** :p:

Anyways, perhaps Autopilot Off should be on there.

[inky]

noooooooo bowling for soup can not suck like good charlite

I dont get it. If AFI were punk, what are they now??
Awesome band...

[total_immortal1]

I would take the ramones off...after all, didnt they start punk?

[total_immortal1]

We could add the white stripes, and dashboard confessional

[MrLucky77713]

Pinholes: Pop isn't short for popular. Pop = pop music. so it's POP themes on PUNK music. Powerchords, distortion, palm muting, simplicity + poppy, relatively "shallow" themes like girls and getting drunk and hating school and being with friends = pop-punk.

Inky: So because BFS is a pop-punk band they suck? Could've fooled me. Truth is, I'm not a fan, but pop-punk does not mean suck, or else we would call it suck-punk.

Total:Wrong. Ramone started pop-punk. They belong as a pop-punk band like the Queers. And the white stripes are modern rock or something aren't they? DC is just indie/emo.

[total_immortal1]

Ok thanks

[total_immortal1]

But about the AFI thing...

[MrLucky77713]

No, it's not. The Clash are popular, they aren't pop-punk. The casualties are rather popular, they aren't pop-punk.

There's criteria beyond just being popular. Pop IS catchy, but not because it is popular.

[Andrewbiles]

I know I'm late in saying this, but I've just been cleaning this thread a little bit, but if that were the correct way to write Sloppy Meateaters, then 'Meateaters' would need to become two words. You can't have a capital letter in the middle of a word like that. Anyway, for short, they are Sloppy Meateaters, without the capital 'e'. You can ask Josh if you like, I'm sure he'd agree with me, well, at least I hope he would, he seems literate.

[travel sized]

should slick shoes be on this list? and what about The Meices? i don't see them in pop punk/emo or punk/ska.

[weezergeek182]

the ramones are pop-punk. totally pop-punk

you should add
Cub (They're like a girly version of the ramones)
misfits (If they aren't already on there)
Offspring (I insist)

[kurush]

sum 41 arent pop-punk... they're some other kind of punk... more punk-metallish...?

[kurush]

even though they started out as pop punk...

[simpleplan891]

Fall Out Boy is an awesome emo band.

[FairyPur]

I went to a Sum 41 concert on...Friday! Their new CD is really less poppy than their other ones, and I really reccomend it. It's Chuck! It was an awsome concert! *Obsessed with Sum 41*

[FairyPur]

That's right :cheers:

[MrLucky77713]

^Modern Rock now...

[warren_hui]

I like Green Day and Good Charlotte. There is a point, so you know wot bands play in this genre. No need to comment on my opionion....

[avrilrockerchic]

Avril Lavigne is awesome and I dont care what you guys have to say about her!!!

[bassmo_part2]

Add Uncle Brian

[jpageismyhero]

Take the Ramones off.

[jpageismyhero]

How can the ramones be pop punk when they were the major influence of pretty much every other band on that list. Pop punk came in the 90's.

[MrLucky77713]

^No. The rise of pop-punk was in the 90s, the Ramones invented the genre, it simply wasn't named until Green Day and the rest came along. Influence doesn't make you a certain genre, it just makes the Ramones rule.

Ramones invented it, if ANYONE should stay, they should.

[EmoBastard]

Yes, I agree with the idea of the Ramones inventing this genre. They are probably my favorite pop-punk band at the moment.

[RockNRollGuy420]

hey are The Methadones pop-punk? I think they are and they are a pretty good band and plus arent like other pop-punk bands that just are targeted at teenagers, they actually write **** worth listening to, even for those of you who dont like pop-punk, check em out

[RockNRollGuy420]

dude did you even listen to what the dude said u asshole? He didnt say they invented pop-punk hes saying they invented punk(they actually didnt really, they are the first punk band though) and they they influenced all the punk bands you know of today, every band in every subgenre of punk you know of, yep and i dont think they are really pop punk they sound more like the kind of music that the beatles(one of their influences) and other bands like that played and also we cant forget the other bands that came before The Ramones like the New york dolls that were like one of the bands that helped to invent punk so yaa......

[MrLucky77713]

^Erm... I did too say they invented pop-punk. Did you even listen to me you asshole? Generally, The VU is credited with the "creation" of punk along with MC5 and The Stooges and the like...

Ramones invented pop-punk. They weren't really the first punk band.

so yaa...

[acdc101]

I know the ramones are actually early punk, but I always liked to think of them as classic rock.

[weezergeek182]

classic rock. lol no way. just early pop-punk. they influenced like our modern misfits,green day,cub,...any of those bands that play fast 2 minute pop songs with heavy distortion. (There's more to it than that, but that's a vague description of the pop-punk movement they started.)

[Rngd595]

GOOD CHARLOTTE SUCK AND SO DO SIMPLE PLAN
BLINK-182 AND GREEN DAY RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Al_The_Killer]

amazing transparent man

[piper182]

no blink does dumbass

[Jet]

who are Foutains of WAyne on ther??

please, enlighten me

[offspring_punk]

Take off Green Day, Agent Orange, The Ramones and The Descendants....you make me sick putting them on there as pop-punk, and good job not putting Offspring on there they are punk.

[MrLucky77713]

^You make me laugh because of your inability to differentiate between genres.

[Yahiko357]

I don't mean to be a nit-pick but I'm gonna second that, although I don't really care if you leave her up there or not. I just don't have any idea how she could be called pop-punk. Pop-rock seems much more accurate.

[justy]

what about frenzal rhomb. there funny fellas. proberly only punk band that i like. well if ramones are "pop punk" i like them to. but thats a load of ****. who invented punk if it wasnt ramones or sex pistols? saints? or is it an older older band?

[XMeatHookMartyX]

Please take off the snake the cross the crown before they look bad.

[monkeyspks]

Good Charlotte*
Green Day


Why the heck would you reccommend Good Charlotte, and not Green Day? It just seems like ... you don't know ANYTHING about music. Not even pop-punk. Take Green Day OFF. Keep Good Charlotte on there and delete the little star thing. But there are some good bands on there. Sum 41..

you should add Hellogoodbye and Steriogram (Zebrahead only BETTER!)

[buckethead101]

where is the ataris?????

[joe_barge]

Why is None More Black on there? I don't think they're pop-punk at all. And why was this years Warped Tour infested with pop-punk?

[mr. everything]

desaparecidos

[MrLucky77713]

justy: The Velvet Underground, MC5 and a few other proto-punk bands invented punk. Ramones and Sex Pistols aren't even close.

We have articles on this so you kids can learn the history of your favorite genres...

Definatly not pop punk

[GutTermouthpunk]

Who cares is they're pop punk or straight punk? As long as they sound good.

[zephyrclaw]

I don't believe Alkaline Trio belongs on the list at all - any chance they're going to be removed? Also, shouldn't Busted be on the list?

[Andrewbiles]

^ Where should they be then? And don't say emo, they're much more pop-punk than emo.

[whyvern]

They're part of this pseudo-new-wave thing that's becomming popular.

Recommend bands for New-New-Wave/New-Power-Pop:

Alabama Jihad (more No-Wave)
The Pink Spiders
The Epoxies
The Expoliding Hearts



Y'all should take off the Snake the Cross the Crown and replace it with their old band: Curbside Service... they were more pop-punk. They were even a ska band at one point.

[zephyrclaw]

Originally posted by andrewbiles

Neither, IMO. I've always considered them to be just punk, bordering slightly on emo.

[linzo]

hmm that's pretty confusing...i didn't understand half of their comments

[HoldenC]

definatly take the ramones off. there were the fathers of punk rock, not pop-punk. generally poppunk has a negative connotation that goes along with it, the ramones don't deserve that. don;t get me wrong, i like "pop-punk", but the ramones don;t fit into that catagory.

[hardrock1315]

Originally posted by FatKidsonMopeds

I'd take them off.

I'd also take off Agent Orange.

And I'd add the Explosion now that Black Tape came out.

[Andrewbiles]

^ I'd agree with The Explosion, but I don't understand why you'd think of taking Agent Orange and the Ramones off the list.

[xducktape182x]

hell yeah blink 182 is the best bandin the whole world!!!!!!!!tom is sooooooooooo hot!!!arrrrrrrrrr!!!!ok bye!!

[Greenfinger182]

I think she'd like that very much...could you dress up as tom while you're at it...? Tom Delonge Fetish...what is this world coming to?

[RockNRollGuy420]

DUDE wheres the methadones?????? they kickass you little *****, put them on there before i take a plane to wherever you live and kick you in the nads as hard as i can with some studded leather boots

[Andrewbiles]

^ Shut up :rolleyes:

[Gc_Sp_pUnkcHIcK]

avril isnt pop punk shes just pop i mean you know for some people who like her thats great and all but i don't think she should be in the pop punk list because shes just pop

[Gc_Sp_pUnkcHIcK]

btw blink 182 kicks ***

[Gc_Sp_pUnkcHIcK]

the Ramones arnt pop-punk there old school punk music same as the sex pistols and the clash

[Andrewbiles]

^ One post with paragraphs will do :rolleyes:
Ramones are pop-punk. For f*cks sake, we've been through this about 1000 times on here already!

[jedi8804]

Isn't Something Corporate mainly an Emo band? I also saw the Pietasters on there, and I always thought they were ska. Oh, and the Ramones are pop-punk.

[JohnnyRamone]

Mrlucky did u mean keep the ramones punk or keep the ramones pop-punk?

[S.O.T.Y.]

Add the Plain White T's. And no, SoCo is not emo.

[rayzyn]

where's story of the year?

[indolence]

Add Mest or perish. ;D

[MrLucky77713]

RAAWWWRRRR!!! You bastards! I'll say it again.

The Ramones did not invent punk, nor father it or whatever. The Ramones were just the first big pop-punk band, before pop-punk was even called pop-punk. The first band to bear the pop-punk label was Green Day in the 90's (I'm mostly certain...).

Ramones stay. No more debate.

PS: HoldenC, I, nor anyone else give two shits about the stimga attatched with pop-punk. It's meaningless garbage.

[Ibanezpunkgirl]

You should take off story of the year. Add American Hi-Fi and Riddlin' Kids

[Andrewbiles]

American Hi-Fi aren't pop-punk, well, 'the art of losing' was pretty close, but the self-titled definately wasn't. The one coming out soon sounded like a random mixture of tracks, got better as it went on, but I remember disliking the first 5 or so.

[jestermasterx]

I'm certain Alkaline Trio isn't pop-punk; if The Offspring isn't, they definitely aren't. And yes, Avril Lavigne considers herself pop-rock. Alkaline Trio is definitely punk/emo, though.

EDIT: Alkaline Trio even says so themself that they are punk and not pop-punk.

[indolence]

You should add 'Three Quarters'...
wait...
You can add unsigned bands, right? x_x




This might help :D

EDIT: Alkaline Trio even says so themself that they are punk and not pop-punk.

Alkaline Trio are closest to pop-punk than any other genre. Don't know why The Offspring aren't on there if they're not.

[somepunkkid]

the ramones aint pop punk, nor are the buzzcocks

umm no... i saw a concert when i used to like them and their opening band (sum 41) out played them... by a lot.

[MrLucky77713]

Alk3 just doesn't carry that pop-punk vibe. They don't focus on catchiness, and lots of it isn't so much catchy as it is emotional. This IS their forum, but they don't really belong on a list.

somepunkkid: They are too pop-punk. don't debate it.

[snazyfranzstrin]

i cant believe alkaline trio is a pop-punk band

[punkboy]

out of everyone on that list Blink 182's all the small things is the biggest hit out of all those bands no other bands song ever came close everyone knows that freaken song it gets in your head

[S.O.T.Y.]

^Don't spam up the thread.

And am I the only person who thinks the Plain White T's should be added?

[MrLucky77713]

both of them, man. They practically invented the genre.

[punkboy]

they should add relient k there rad

As stated last time, after long debates we left AFI and The Offspring off the list as AFI were never pop punk, and used to be punk, whereas Offspring for the majority of their albums have been punk.

So keep them off ;) Yess, but the oh so smartass punks don't want 'em on their fancy list. At least that's what was the deal the last time I was there.

[SkaterPunk182]

whats the diffrence between ska, punk, pop punk, and emo?

[punkboy]

yes i did

[punkboy]

ska has horns punk is really fast rock pop punk is radio punk and emo sucks

[Frying_nemo08]

this thread has gotten off topic and why and punkboy are you retarded?

and stop the genre bashing emo doesnt suck, i bet that all the music you write, (if you even write music) is much worse than all the music you bash, so stfu ok

[MrLucky77713]

punkboy, you lose. Stop.

Are there any band s that should be added?

[punkboy]

man screw you fag

[punkboy]

kinda funny how you can have so much bawls on the internet but what ever as for me i think relient k should be added on the list because there due peace out my guitar brothers

[MrLucky77713]

Aren't they there? They ARE pop-punk. And let's shy away from the homophobic slurs. What if I WAS gay? Does that have anything to do with anything? No, so shut up.

I'm just saying you shouldn't just be like "emo suxx0rz man..." because you've got no reaosn other then "its nawt punk rawk!!" to do that. It's compounded by your superiority complex.

[color me misery]

No use for a name?

[emochik91]

oooo and what about the aquabats?i guess u could say they are pop punk right?i know whoever made that list must have spent some time on it but please,take avril off of it.

[hardrock1315]

Add Rancid.

[kevGhommiefry]

take rufio off their definitely emo

[delongesmyhero]

haha ya emochik91 exectly who ever made this better get rid of avril

[Zad515]

I think The Gamits should be added. Also, Agent Orange is more punk than pop-punk IMO.

[S.O.T.Y.]

Or not.

Add the Plain White T's, please?

[rpmbass]

I wouldn't call Offspring punk at all, I don't think I'd call them pop punk either and I do agree that AFI shouldn't be on there

[Alien_from_a_cd]

^^Well, s/t and Ignition are punk, Smash punk/pop-punk, Ixnay modern rock/mainstream punk, Americana pop-punk, Conspiracy of one, blah, pop-punk/rock, and Splinter- I don't bother classifying it 'cause it has too many different styles. Oh yeah, that's IMO of course.

[kryptonite22]

[color me misery]

There pop punk now, they used to be straight punk, leave them on.

[ibanezza]

argh! what are the ramones doing there?! take them off, take them OFF!!

[Andrewbiles]

^ Shut up!
The amount of people who clearly don't understand musical genres is becoming ridiculous.

[color me misery]

Add 'No Use for a Name'.

[EmO_RuleZ!!]

^^ Yeah

[color me misery]

[BumOffBarney]

Id say the aquabats are more punk/ska-ish than pop-punk

[Punk as atticus]

good list accept RAMONES is not pop punk. pop punk may thrive from some of its music. It descends from it. Ramones were one of the first punk bands. There is no band that was the first or that invented it. so take it off your list.

Oh my God, there are at least four fucking posts on every single page of this thread saying how The Ramones aren't pop-punk. ACCEPT IT. THE RAMONES ARE POP-PUNK, AND THEY'RE NOT GETTING TAKEN OFF THE LIST.

Rufio is pop-punk as well to the person who said they're not. Yes, a lot of their songs have sweet guitar lines, but they're still pop-punk. They may not be as pop-punk as some of the bands on this list, but they're still mainly pop-punk.

But some of the people here I agree with...Sum 41's new album really isn't pop-punk...

[egle]

Originally posted by kurush
sum 41 arent pop-punk... they're some other kind of punk... more punk-metallish...?
jup...now they'rnt pop punk......but i dont care....i just love all SUM 41 cd's....they r AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:kissass:

[angus_young77]

ramones=pop punk?...i think u did your math wrong buddy

[Andrewbiles]

^ If you're trying to say they're not, first, just read the rest of the thread, and secondly, you're wrong.
Anyone else that goes on about this from now on I'm just going to delete the post of because it's become really boring. Gonna have to try and sort these threads out soon as well.

[kryptonite22]

And to those who say the Ramones aren't pop-punk...

:haha

[FatKidsOnMopeds</3]

kay, edited!

[JadeFalcon5]

Ramones STARTED punk! and their awesome... the base of punk comes from them. and Sum 41 rocks also, as with greenday, their old stuff used to be punk, but now their veering off to more rock and alternative and making people think its punk (nothing against Greenday)

[MrLucky77713]

^Right... Umm you're wrong about the Ramones.

[nirvanaman312]

[fake_sk8r182]

Rancid?

[--nametaken5--]

Originally posted by S.O.T.Y.
So, say someone liked a few pop-punk bands. They didn't know of any others, so they look at the list, pick a band, see what they sound like, and probably like them. That's the point.

at least someone gets it

[--nametaken5--]

some of fall out boy's stuff is pretty poppish

not all of it though

[--nametaken5--]

Originally posted by punk1918

oh, and since when were the snake the cross the crown pop-punk? seems a little... peculiar to call them that...

[MrLucky77713]

Snake Cross Crown is pretty far from pop-punk. If they truly are there then they ought to be removed.

[Nightmare87]

And the Ataris were pop-punk. Are they anymore? And if they aren't, what are they now? Emo?

[whyvern]

They used to be hella poppy when they actually lived here and admitted it... they're lame now, they played here and said they were from California... there were like 12 people there and they played this big festival... they deserved it.


I think they were added when this was combined with the old emo list... you can add Curbside Service (their old band) to the list if they're not allready on there... anyone interested in hearing them... IM me.

[adam_rofe]

anyone herd of phantom planet?

[kalabugtak]

Look around the thread... Ramones invented this genre and belong on the list.

This is about bands, not albums

Some elements? YFW was like the best pop-punk album EVAR... well maybe not, but definitely the best in many many years.
