Buzzcocks and Ramones were Punk Pop Descendents were the first Pop Punk band Green Day and Blink 182 both sound more like them than they do Buzzcocks and Ramones Their album "I Don't Want To Grow Up" is the first album to come out and set the tropes & trends of what stereotypical "Pop Punk" would become a decade later

You’re not exactly wrong…. but almost not right with pop punk or death metal. With those genres, there *has* to be underground local bands out there with a more expansive vocal range. You only don’t hear about them because they don’t appeal to the radio masses that simp over that Blink 18-Green out Boy in Reverse, or Cannibal Deicide ft. Under stuff. But trap? You’re 100% right on point.
@modaljazz59 26 күн бұрын
Regarding vocals, two things: the girls have always had a place in the genre and punk in general going back to Blondie, Shonen Knife, Bratmobile. Much more than in prog rock, or classic rock, or heavy metal. Second; one of the great features of many pop punk bands is having two vocalists. Propagandhi, Alkaline Trio, How Water Music, Dillinger Four, The Copyrights, Teenage Bottlerocket. You can tell their voices apart. But I 💯 agree, it is subtle.

Neoncore was really the death nail for the genre. It was wayyyy too sanitized and it was directly aimed at the 12-15 year old demographic. I teach middle school and let me tell you, once something that was cool with high schoolers starts to be cool with middle schoolers, the party is over. I think that's why we saw the new wave of pop punk/emo/midwest emo bands from the revival phase become more experimental, heavier and less concerned about mass appeal. Plus, by that time streaming had taken over and music genre stratification really took hold. Sub-genres are key now.

I'd pick the Buzzcocks over Ramones as the first pop-punk band because while what you said is true, and the Ramones are more cemented in pop culture because of that, to me the Ramones are more punk, slightly. They are having fun but, a good chunk of their early songs are very political. As well ad, Ramones taking a genre that previously was popular and turning it into something else. They are "pop punk" only really in the sense that they have fun and that the style that they play was popular in previous decades. To me, the Buzzcocks made their own style, and the lyrics and subject matter are all over the place. They have some political things, and they have a lot of songs about relationships and life paired up with original catchy tunes. I'm not gonna knock on anyone who says the Ramones because their later work was pretty much pop punk, but that was in the 80s, after the Buzzcocks "created" the sound. I'd also slightly argue that the Clash could fit in there too but again, they became more pop later in their careers. Buzzcocks were pop punk the whole time.

To me, I still think Descendents were the first pop-punk band. I'd call Buzzcocks and Ramones proto-pop punk in the same way The Velvet Underground and NY Dolls were kind of punk, but were more like punk forefathers. Descendents created a sound that every major pop punk band after them tried to emulate. But I think that's a minority opinion and more people would agree with you lol

This^^^ also Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Minor Threat were more Hardcore, a sub-genre of "punk". "Punk" was really a musical term that developed in NY/US and which then became an internationally know style with the ascendence of the Sex Pistols to their #1 charted album which appeared as a blank. The Bill Grundy incident was the event that put them in the tabloids, "The Filth and The Fury", the media (print newspapers) pushed this word "punk" on them. This "punk" was then declared dead by the media after the deaths of Sid & Nancy in 1979, but hardcore fans and hardcore kids kept for themselves and kept it alive.

Pop Punk was my favorite music growing up in the 90's. But the bands around 2003 really turned me off. Yellowcard, Simple Plan, and Fall Out Boy were the worst. The vocalists all sound exactly the same, they were way too polished, and more pop than punk. This was the end of the genre to me and I transitioned to A7x. I still love and listen to the classic Green Day, Blink, and Sum 41 stuff today.
@takodabostwick8507 28 күн бұрын
Yellowcard is better than A7X to me. Only because I believe that Yellowcard are better than Megadeth, but Megadeth are a million times better than Megadeth. But Metallica is better than all of the bands you mentioned, except for Green Day and Sum 41. However I did put Metallica in my top 10 because of Ride the Lighting, one of the best rock/metal albums ever made. However, I have to give the edge to Linkin Park over A7X. Chester Bennington was the 00s version of Kurt Cobain. Not only that, Linkin Park's music made an impact on that generation. I had to put A7X in the top 30 because they're another 00s band that I love and I have to include bands that were around and popular that I loved during my childhood. Gotta give Linkin Park and A7X credit for their impact in the 00s.
