Jan Backing Track Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 New Found Glory is definitely Little Ceasers. Consistent, we'll give them that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentytwenty Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Screeching Weasel is a niche band that no one know outside punk rock enthusiasts. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I say pop punk when I say I listen to Screeching Weasel. I can bullshit, if someone off the street asks you what you listen to, you aren't saying pop punk if the bands you listen to are screeching weasel, because you don't want them to mix up and think you listen to New Found Glory type bands 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like with anything, is the definition used by a relatively small number of well-informed purists more valid/accurate/useful than how the term is used by the vast majority of people? I think they're both right. I would consider both Screeching Weasel and The Story so Far pop punk. I also think that in the past, the idea of reasoning with broader terms faced way more resistance than now. Everyone was more elitist with language and they didn't want to endorse the use of imprecise words, but with the passing of time the use of terms in a much wider sense has risen gigantically and it has to do a lot with how society is evolving. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's on them. I think they'd assume Blink or Green Day. Bands closely associated with Weasel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Let's be real, someone off the street wouldn't even know what pop punk is so you would just say that you listen to punk rock music. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Bagel Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Oh, just in case you lil bitches didn't know. Lagwagon are still doing the fucking business. I must've listened to this song 14 times in the day that I heard it. Shit is impeccable @Juan@Russel Coight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient #48273 Posted March 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Round 1 feels never-ending, but it’s almost over! Rancid, New Found Glory, Lagwagon and NOFX move onto Round 2, which will begin early week. It’ll be NFG vs. Lagwagon and NOFX vs. Rancid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
