favorite pop punk band

uhler · 03.23.2008, 09:05 PM

i don't mean the shitty crap rolling stone and spin say is pop punk. i mean the good shit like anything from the buzzcocks to the decendents, to the early lookout! records releases. i know everyone out there loves at one pop punk band. how could you not?

i, of course, have to go with the descendents, but i really like screeching weasel and the riverdales too. the ergs! and pink razors are some pretty good newer bands.

oh yeah, discount is one of my favorites too. actually if it wasn't for milo goes to college, they would be my favorite pop punk band.

Ha ha ha, yeah I was going to say The Descendents and The Buzzcocks, but that's as far as I go!!!

Older: Buzzcocks. Singles Going Steady is a hell of a lot of fun
Newer: Q and Not U. Too bad they're not together anymore.

leatherface were amazing! i liked some snuff. i'll still listen to it if it was on, but i don't think i could buy a record.

batreleaser · 03.23.2008, 09:18 PM

jimbrim · 03.23.2008, 09:18 PM

their fat wreck chords stuff isn't so bad though. i haven't heard much of anything aside from that stuff by them.

Two Things At Once is easily in my Top 10 favorite albums ever....4 lyfe etc.

Everyneurotic · 03.23.2008, 09:28 PM

i'd probably say the adolescents.

yeah, i love them.

krastian · 03.23.2008, 09:30 PM

True that, can't forget them either.

EDIT - The Adolescents

Death & the Maiden · 03.23.2008, 09:31 PM

Ramones
Buzzcocks
The Clash (maybe more of a band that did pop and punk though)
Wire

batreleaser · 03.23.2008, 09:33 PM

wire i wudnt categorize as pop punk at all, ive always thought of them as a post punk band who just happened to come around the time when punk was startin up, they were light years ahead of all those bands in terms of creativity, one of the top 20 all time greatest me thinks.

GravitySlips · 03.23.2008, 09:33 PM

Pink Flag could possibly be called pop-punk I think...certain songs anyway. Anything after that not so much.

batreleaser · 03.23.2008, 09:42 PM

i was gonna say adolescents, but theyre a little too hardcore i thought to be pop-punk. great band though, fun band.

Death & the Maiden · 03.23.2008, 09:53 PM

They were a post-punk band with pop elements (listen to Mannequin).

Death & the Maiden · 03.23.2008, 09:53 PM

Bad Religion

And it was my first SST record, and I soon got into Black Flag and the Minutemen, and generally started listening to hardcore instead of pop-punk.

I think I'm gonna go revisit a lot of my old favourite hardcore and punk albums soon. I feel such an urge to stick on the Descendents right now, but time for bed haha.

yeah when i first heard black flag, i didn't touch another pop punk record for awhile. actually i didn't touch any record for awhile aside from damaged. the minutemen came a little later and so did the descendents. it's funny i was deep into hardcore punk (fast and furious only)but the first minutemen record i bought was double nickels on the dime and def. was not fast (furious yes, but not hardcore sounding), but i fell in love with it right away. i always look back and laugh when i think about that time period of my life.
