Is there such a thing as good pop punk?
if so, show me what you got
>>63426011
depends on your measure of 'good'
its pop so its not exactly shooting for high art, just catchy enjoyability, its just stupid fun music you have to take it for what it is, a heaping dose of nostalgia helps so maybe you had to have grown up with it.
>>63426011
>its pop so its not exactly shooting for high art
this is why i laugh everytime i hear "art pop"
>>63426011
If you have a special disstaste for it you won't like anything from it
But anyway, here's the last pop-punk album I loved
>>63426231
im not against it im honestly just fishing for recs, trying to get into it
>>63426249
then listen to We Cool?, it's fantastic
If you like it check out his band Bomb The Music Industry
>>63426317
Btmi is ska, but we cool is probably pop punk, both are great

modern baseball
mainstream pop punk died when blink 182 broke up for the first time
everything after it has been either trying to replicate the formula and failing badly or easycore chug shit
Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon
Modern Baseball - Sports
Modern Baseball - You're Gonna Miss It All
Funeral Party - The Golden Age of Knowhere
blink-182 - Dude Ranch
Give these records a listen or two, you might enjoy them.

nah there's some other good ones out there. That album is definitely one of the greatest pop punk albums of the decade though
>>63428623
this and the menzingers.
The wonder years, ADTR, and others of that ilk are trash
>>63427523
>Modern Baseball
I've only heard them live opening for The Wonder Years and they sounded like shit.
>>63427750

it's more like new wave-y DEVO stuff but this was good

how could you possibly compare the wonder years to a day to remember
i dont even like pop punk but ive listened to the greatest generation and that is an absurd statement
