They're older, less poppy stuff, still sounds good after this time.
I think the problem with Green Day, is that they appealed to us as alienated teens/young adults themselves, and as time passed, they lost that charm.
Ditto, Blink 182.

I'll admit to listening to green day as a youth, but never Blink 182. Even then I knew the difference between the two, which is most distinguishing with the overall "punk aura" of the bands. I'm aware of the pop-punk sub genre, but how much pop does a band need to use before they are just a pop band with some punk elements?
