    The type of music you likely hear in films like American Pie etc.

    Some may class it as different genres, (usually alternative) but it's still pop punk. And it's usually quite good.

    Things like.

    I prefer real punk, but can tolerate pop punk in small doses

    Some of it reminds me of being a young teenager.

    Some of it is really good.

    The original bands that pioneered Pop Punk and Power Pop were great and combining fast guitars with 60s melodies has produced some joyous music since the 70s, even the band in my avatar, Hüsker Dü, played a heavy Hardcore kind of Pop Punk and were influenced by Ramones. I think that problem with the genre started around the the start of the millennium when it morphed into a kind of insipid, generic Skate Punk and Emo sound which basically is all the same.

    Pop Punk bands that I like include...

    Ramones
    Buzzcocks
    The Undertones
    Generation X
    Descendents
    Social Distortion
    The Lemonheads
    Shonen Knife
    The Lillingtons (who Spurs Luke got me into, he could probably name hundreds of bands from the genre!)

    Yep. He's a Man Utd fan. We're collecting them. We've got Diego now, too.
    I think that they just congregate when you finish in the top four or something. <whistle>

    **** off Diego is ours.

    He spends all night until early hours about 6 nights a week posting on the Liverpool board. Bizarre.

    tbh we've been trying to get rid of him for about 4 years. His wumming is good if you suffer from insomnia though.
