POP/PUNK is dead

Not really, just kinda sleeping for a while lol. ANy views on the newer pop/punk bands that doing it? Taking Back Sunday, Fall Out Boy, The STarting LIne, all those guys when they first came out were amazing, pioneering something new. I kinda feel like maybe it got trashed by bands like Boys Like Girls, what do you guys think??

These guys basically define terrible. Not sure what part of their music you can consider punk, but they look like a bunch of punks, in both meanings of the word.

Bah, I don't care what this forum says, I liked Taking Back Sunday, Blink-182, Green Day, Motion City Soundtrack, and Sum 41 for a long period of time as a teenager. While my listening to these artists has sharply declined in the last couple years, I wouldn't call them **** and I won't renounce my enjoyment of their music.

That being said, because I stopped listening to Pop Punk, I haven't taken notice of any up-and-coming artists lately. Therefore, I don't have an opinion regarding the OP's question. Turns out this response was pointless.

Pop Punk seems like it's the new in thing now, for whatever bizarre reason. I like my fair share of pop punk bands, but I'm not a hardcore fan.

I'm sorry but... I definitely DON'T think pop-punk is the "new" in thing.

Same here. All bands I listened to during my teen years. Especially taking Back Sunday. Eventually everyone grows out of bands like that I think. Except for those lifelong emo kids who tattoo themselves all up and dye and straighten their hair and go to Warped Tour when they are like 28... And the bands themselves. Haven't listened to any of these bands in years, but i liked it back then. For awhile I wondered why all the pop punk sounded like crap (i was more into bands like Brand New who were more...emo??) but then i realized i lost my teen angst, stopped feeling like a victim with girls, and in short just grew up.

I don't know. Maybe it's just because I'm new to music, but there seems to be an influx of pop-punk bands. The Wonder Years, Freshman 15, Hey Monday, Paramore, and a whole crap load of others seem to be sprouting out like daisies.

And I don't mean it's a fad, I just meant it was the relatively new in thing in comparison to other genres.
