What? When I think of pop, I think of simple song structure meant to be catchy and easily digestible to a mass audience. This is kind of an open ended definition, but I wouldn't call Metallica's eighties or Slayer's material pop. Otherwise you're just talking about pop in the sense of music that isn't classical music.
