I was really into pop punk in my mid/late teens and on...definitely a genre I could relate to. Lots of Fat Wreck stuff because their early comps are what really got me into the genre (though I was already into the first 2 on my list).
Descendents (first exposure to pop punk...fell in love)
Misfits (horror punk, yes, but they were very catchy)
Lagwagon
Bad Astronaut (<3)
Dillinger Four (<3 probably my favorite now)
Swingin' Utters
Strung Out
Snuff
Pulley (their first 2 are essential)
Pennywise
Rise Against (haven't heard the latest, lost interest)
Deviates (little known Epitaph band, put out one album that is superb)
NOFX (some)
Blink 182 (first 3 albums)
Lawrence Arms (Apathy and Exhaustion was great, don't care too much for the rest)
I'm sure I'm missing a few...
