Green Day and Offspring like you said. But like I indicated before, even though those two brought punk some mainstream attention in the early to mid 90s, they were hardly innovators. Pop-punk existed long before them.

That may be true but hardly anyone was listening to them back then. Blink 182 didn't make it big until 1998.
