Nosferatu Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Just now, Ghent said: Exactly, Alkaline Trio is completely lacking the "pop" in pop punk. I disagree. Just cause the lyrics and stuff are darker and they have more mellow vocals, doesn't mean it's not pop punk. I think of it as their own take of pop punk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, him not having a permanent band hurts him. But if we're only rating the music... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about it more from a general point of view. Their earlier albums probably had a more aggressive punk rock sound. They didn't really start blending the more goth and new wave stuff until later. Just like blink really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosferatu Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 I also feel like MGK's new album is pop punk but leaning closer to the pop side. He also has his own take on the genre in some of his songs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it's probably the Ramones. Whenever I've been to club gigs of pop punk bands (Teenage Bottlerocket being one of the bands) Ramones are always playing on the monitors during the breaks or before the gig starts, when the bands are setting up.

Ghent Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 If the Ramones are pop punk, then so are the Sex Pistols. Do we really want to go there? These are punk bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Sex Pistols were basically BSB of punk ... a made band, meant to sell merch. Fuck the Sex Pistols. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate both the Ramones and Sex Pistols, but bringing up the Pistols ruins his argument. The Ramones took punk and added POP to it........therefore....POP-punk. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
