    What is going on my mates!
    Today we will be talking about why pop punk sucks | or rather why people think pop punk sucks + whether or not that's a bad thing + how it can improve
    It's kinda hard to go through life without hearing a pop punk song, especially if you grew up in the late 90's early 2000's when bands like blink-182, Green Day, Sum 41, and all those types of bands were poppin. It was on the radio, the mall, it was hard to evade.
    These days pop punk isn't so popular commercially but is for sure kept alive by acts like The Story So Far, Neck Deep, Real Friends, The Wonder Years, Knuckle Puck, you know the bands I'm talking about.
    While I do offer some criticism towards the genre, I'll always love it and end the video on a high note. Watch till the end. I usually don't say that, but just do it this once with this video, per my request. Love you even if you don't.
    Thank you for all the immense support lately, it never goes unnoticed.
    Best,

      Pop punk mainly consists of annoying fans who have zero personality, dress sense or taste. The music itself is oversaturated, whiney, repetitive, nasaly and cliche. It's no surprise the aforementioned fanbase like this typical middle of the road cock rock. And tbh, from my experience it tends to be emos, jocks, lesbians and peoppe who aspire to be the latter or the former who listen to it I.e. the worst. The more power to you for liking it but aside from the douche taint and teenage angst, at it's very core, pop punk tends to just be generic these days. I could at least kinda respect old stuff for being somewhat original but not this cesspit.

      Jake Charles I’m not sure if you knew this but music genres are not decided by the popularity of the music but instead decided by the sound of the music. Punk rock fans have a tendency to reject anything remotely catchy or commercial when bands like The Ramones where literally directly influenced by bubblegum pop and attempted to emulate it in their music. I don’t believe you have to be a “punk” band to be a pop punk band. At the end of the day all pop punk is is music that takes the general speed and punk like energy/guitar work but with a stronger sense of pop based melody and a focus on pop song writing.

    Not many people realise how diverse "Pop Punk" actually is. I'm actually quite surprised you put Screeching Weasel in between Green Day and Offspring. Sadly in terms of influence, kids couldn't care less what the Weasels did. Personally, I think the new generation of Pop Punk bands (2010 Onwards) tend to lean towards "Emo", as opposed to the traditional "Skate Punk" style pioneered by the Weasels, The Descendents, The Parasites, The Queers, early Green Day & Blink, etc.
    As for the "Power Pop" bit, bands like The Exploding Hearts, The Marked Men, The Biters, or The CRY! were the only ones to fit the description accurately in more recent years. Taking their "Pop" from 50s and 60s Pop and Doo Wop, and combining it with the aggression of Punk and the Mod Revivalists from the late 70s.

      I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. To me, any so-called "pop-punk" released 2005 and later (Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Paramore, etc.) sounds like and could be better described as emo/alternative than anything else. I think it's weird, laughable, and downright dishonest to suggest otherwise.
      This may be a bold statement, but to me, you can't have songs that are mostly in a minor key, dark/angsty/emo/misanthropic/nihilistic lyrics, gloomy vibes, Drop D/Db/C tuned guitars, half tempo drums, heavy chugging breakdowns and still be considered "pop-punk". It just becomes something else entirely from the happy, major key, lyrics about high school/girlfriends/skateboarding, etc., standard tuned guitars, punchy double or triple tempo drum beats (to me, "true" pop-punk) of the 90s and early 00s.
      You could say that the genre as a whole has shifted in this direction. You could even say that the true pop-punk bands (by my definition) from the 90s-early 00s themselves have also drifted in the emo/alternative/post-hardcore/metalcore/crabcore (or as one commenter put it: "punk these days is just just metal-lite.") direction over time. Fair enough. But at least call it what it is and not equivocate it with something that is vastly different.

      @dillchives 4 роки тому +1

      Yeah, what was coined "pop punk" all the way through the mid to late 90s -- things like Screeching Weasel, the Queers, etc. were a lot different than what came later. Once things had moved on to bands like Sum 41, New Found Glory, and everything after that, some of us had already moved on to stuff like the garage rock revival bands with more overt 50s/60s influences that were coming out of places like Crypt Records, Rip Off Records, and Sympathy for the Record Industry (just to name a couple), and discovering the 1960s punk influences through things like the Nuggets / Back from the Grave / Pebbles comps. Even one of the groups you mentioned, the Marked Men, sprung from the ashes of a more garage-y band, the Reds. Power Pop bands around the same time were along the lines of groups like the Briefs and FM Knives, though I'm sure there are some bands that are more poppy than those that came around a little later.

    Punk was born as something POP. "Sex Pistols" were a sort of boy band created at a table and they were signed under Virgin Records, a MAJOR label ! Punk was pop even before that term was coined.

      No you're wrong. We had "punk" in the late 60s in detroit with The Stooges and the MC5. The singer of The Stooges Iggy pop was called a punk on front page magazine and their music is defo not pop but more of a hybrid of blues and hard rock which is known as proto-punk.....

    • @RoguePlanetSounds
      @RoguePlanetSounds 5 років тому +2

      The Greatest Generation was a pop punk album through and through but it also marked their subtle departure from the pop punk sound. I think a lot of that has to deal with the snyths and I'm so glad they're more prominent on their last two records. Plus his lyrics and the topics he sings about nowadays are way more mature and thought out than most of their peers.

  • @spagheddie1673
    @spagheddie1673 3 роки тому +8

    Gotta say, the note at the end about the genre meshing well with other sounds is a really good point and I think its starting to become realised. Love it or hate it, we all know about MGK's venture into pop punk (personally think its sick but that's just an opinion) and it's sort of acted like a catalyst for other artists to move into it. Mostly the emo/pop rap artists like iann dior and trippie redd are starting to blend their sounds with it and poorstacy adds an alternative twist with yungblud blending his stylised sound too. The man at the centre of this? Travis Barker. In conclusion, Travis Barker is singlehandedly reviving pop punk.

If you take a fan of THAT music and see them react to their favorite genre get degraded into doopy love songs or songs about sadness when it used to be “Fuck the Government” and “Destroy Everything,” then you can see why they would get upset.

    Before I watch this, I'm posting my guess. A lot of people hate pop punk because it's an oxymoron. Punk by nature is abrasive and anti establishment whereas pop by nature is polished and establishment. Punks despise pop fans and the feeling is mutual. It takes a certain more open type of person to listen to a genre that blends opposite genres.

    It's not that fame corrupts people. People are already corrupted all over. You take a handful of people off the street and get to know their deepest secrets, and you're gonna find some dark shit. What is fame? Fame is just taking a handful of people off the street, and setting them apart from everyone else. We tend to forget this, that celebrities are still regular people. Now the difference is, the public eye is on them. Every move they make is being watched. So when their dark secrets or the flaws in the personality see the light, everyone is gonna freak out about it. And the hilarious part is, while these people are freaking out over it, they don't realize they're likely standing next to someone hiding the same thing. When it happens to the average person, nobody is gonna bat an eye. They dont know the person. So they dont care. When it happens to the average, it's a mere statistic. But when it happens to their favorite musician or actress or tv host, it's a headline.

    I still love a ton of pop punk and I'm in my early 40's. However, I also listen to lots of other stuff too. If I hear it and like it then I just do. No need to limit myself to any particular genre.

    That Turnover and Movements shout out made me so happy to see. Turnover gets a lot of flack for changing their sound but every album is just better and better.

    I agree with the idea that pop punk needs to evolve and try out new things so we're not pumping out the exact same songs now as we were 20 years ago... but there's no freaking way I'm going to listen to a song that meshes anything that sounds like Lil Peep.

    Yo when I was 15, I thought all I needed was Post-Hardcore, Pop punk, Metalcore, and Dubstep lmao.

      I'm 28 and that's still all I need. Most notably Metalcore and PostHard (Underoath/Emery/Sky Eats Airplane/Old ADTR/etc)

    Have you listened to The Wonder Years last album? The evolution in their lyrics and sound is so amazing, it was the best album of 2018 for me.
    Also, I agree with everything you said. And I also think that if Pop Punk is dying is because the fanbase is killing it. I think this can be said for any genre with "punk" in its name. Take Yellowcard, for example. I absolutely love their last two albums but I really think they split out because they were heavily criticized for "not being the same"
    Or just take any band, actually. Which are criticized for "not being Punk" anymore and either falling into shadows, totally disappearing or trying to go back to a similar sound but being criticized anyway for "not being the same"
    I always imagine what could come from experimenting, and I really appreciate the bands that try in such a toxic scene.

      That's pretty much just music as a whole. The fans are going to complain one way or the other. That said, I think the artist does have _some_ obligation to the fans to retain some semblance of the sound that made 'em famous. If they wanna do something significantly different, I think they should start a new band with the new sound and leave the old band to fade gracefully.

    My emo artists are my starting point to what I currently listen to. I started out listening to Evanescence, Linkin Park, FOB and 3 Days of Grace. Now I'm listening to a lot of power metal and classical music. And I can definitely hear some similarities between what I listened to at 13 vs what I'm listening to at 23.

    I'm 21 and I've been listening to all and more of these bands since I was 11 or 12 years old... It's still my favorite type of music. It's 95% of what I listen to nowadays. This genre might not garner as much attention, but the small "group" of people that listen to pop punk are extremely passionate about it.

    I had the same exact situation as you mentioned at around seventh minute, I realised that pop punk was the foundation for my future music taste. Various pop punk songs were included in video games I played from mid2000s and thats how it all started. The simplicity and joy that this genre conveys is so appealing for a young kid who can later dive deeper into more alternative music. Now I’m so thankful to pop punk for doing this to me and still making me excited while listening to this shit as if i was 8yo. Thanks for making this video, this topic has always been on my mind; cheers and defend pop punk xDDDD
