best pop punk albums

noisereductions · 06.17.2009, 09:59 AM

As the weather gets warmer, I find myself in the mood for pop-punk. Groovie Ghoulies, Queers, Mr. T Experience, Screeching Weasel, etc. A lot of kind of classic Lookout! Recs stuff etc. I don't know. I shouldn't even narrow anthing down. Basically fast, catchy and fun I guess. Gimme some of yr classic albums in this catagory, huh?

the first descendents album i guess, and the first adolescents album (kinda pop right?)

noisereductions · 06.17.2009, 10:14 AM

Which one was the first Descendents album? I have some of their early stuff, but I'm not certain on the chronology. Love em though.

General their placed under pop-punk but ok. I don't call rancid really pop-punk either.

Can you explain what is pop-punk in your opion?

atsonicpark · 06.17.2009, 12:45 PM

I've never heard them described as pop punk. If you know anyone in real life who has described them as such, they don't know what they're talking about. And no, Rancid, definitely isn't pop punk either. It's not my opinion.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_punk

Weezer is power pop. Nada Surf is alt rock. Rancid is just punk in general, I guess.

noisereductions · 06.17.2009, 12:48 PM

Yeah Weezer, etc is like Pop-Rock maybe.

I'd call Rancid Pop-Punk. It's Punk that's poppy.

Generic answer but the first few Ramones records qualify, correct?

atsonicpark · 06.17.2009, 12:49 PM

Rancid has done music in many genres. They have ska songs...

I mostly hear them described as "street punk".

Must everything be segregated and categorised?

loubarret · 06.17.2009, 12:54 PM

Ah, power-pop always seemed a weird turn to me but I can get in nada and alt-rock. So according to wiki this are my favorite pop-punk albums:

Undertones-Undertones
Setting Sons-The Jam
Singles Going Steady-Buzzcocks
999-999
Dookie/Kerplunk-Green Day
Smash-Offspring

atsonicpark · 06.17.2009, 12:54 PM

Sure. Why would you call every band that's half-way punk "punk"? I don't want to listen to ska, I don't want to listen to crust, I want pop punk. So.. if I'm looking for pop punk, categorization makes it easier.

loubarret · 06.17.2009, 12:55 PM

You have another point there but sub-gernes sometimes cause that some bands get misplaced.

atsonicpark · 06.17.2009, 12:58 PM
