Thanatopsis
03.26.11 | Sorry to be picky here, but so far, I listened to a few songs each by Lifetime (vocals don't please me), Shook Ones (too abrasive for what I'm looking for), Motion City Soundtrack (aside from "Everything is Alright", which I already liked, the vocalist annoys me), Such Gold (they are okay, but nothing special and not what I'm looking for), Therefore I Am (pretty solid, but a bit too aggressive for what I'm looking for). Thanks for your help though, I appreciate it! Idnuf-The Sputnik that I have seen (I've been around for quite some time, and I check the site daily, though my post count doesn't show it) is all about post-rock, whatever-the-fuck-Animal Collective-is, Converge, Circle Takes the Square, and metal, none of which are the least bit poppy, but thank you for your recs, they're my favorite so far. |

03.26.11 | Sorry for the double post, but I should note, before anyone else suggests them, I already love Say Anything and Gatsby's American Dream; I just haven't posted anything anywhere stating so, so thank you for reminding me of their greatness musicConsumer, InFiction, and gabethepiratesquid. |
gabethepiratesquid
03.26.11 | Pop-punk is probably one of my favorite genres ever |
Thanatopsis
03.26.11 | gabe-It isn't necessarily mine, but listening to near-constant metal with only Dance Gavin Dance, The Fall of Troy, and Bad Rabbits for solace can be a bit rough on my mood. I'm glad I found/"got" A Lot Like Birds and The Number 12 Looks Like You recently because they have really given me a pick-me-up (odd, especially in TNTLLY's case, but whatever works). Everyone-At this point, I've been up all night, so I'm gonna hit the hay, but I will be sure to give all the recs their fair shake before passing judgment. Thanks to everyone! |
Strider
03.26.11 | Oh, just listen to My Chemical Romance, that should be poppy enough. |

03.26.11 | Just go listen to Four Years Strong and get over it.
Pop Punk Blows. |
pmmets07
03.26.11 | dismissing an entire genre is so retarded |
pmmets07
03.26.11 | especially because you listen to ADTR, then make fun of pop-punk |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | yeah if the best pop-punk you can come up with is Four Years Strong, I'd say it's a pretty shitty genre, too lol
listen to

Park - It Won't Snow
The Get Up Kids - Four Min. Mile

03.26.11 | Knapsack - This Conversation Is Ending Starting Right Now
as far as poppy ska goes there's Goldfinger, Reel Big Fish, etc. |
dnor
03.26.11 | When do I listen to ADTR, pmmets? I haven't listened to them in nearly two years, unless you count the fact I gave the new album a chance...and promptly deleted it off my itunes in bitter disgust. I hate pop punk, I'll dismiss it as I choose.
If poppy riffs in drop d is cool, consider me a nerd...because that shit blows. |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | "I hate pop punk"
no you just don't listen to good pop-punk. stop it. |
gabethepiratesquid
03.26.11 | I hate ADTR. I'm usually one to defend the "scene bands" everyone automatically dismisses, but they absolutely disgust me. Them and their douchey hXC fans who say "SDJFL JEREMY MCKINNON SAVED MY LYFE"
And pop-punk is a fantastic genre, dnor. Shut up. |
dnor
03.26.11 | Leave me to my Technical Death Metal and Indie. I'll leave this genre alone. |
dnor
03.26.11 | Who knows why I hate pop-punk...maybe it's the fact that the only kids that I know that listen to it around me are some of the most annoying people in my life...I just can't stand it. And don't say..."oh go check out The Wonder Years...they rule hard bro" because I've TRIED getting into the genre, it's just not happening. |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | haha dude you're just making it worse on yourself. The Wonder Years are terribad. Just because the pop-punk you listen to is shit because your friends know nothing about good pop-punk doesn't mean the genre sucks. |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | "Who knows why I hate pop-punk"
because you think the epitome of pop-punk is The Wonder Years and Four Years Strong. I don't know JUST A REALLY GOOD GUESS |
dnor
03.26.11 | Well Sea, I trust you. You're a good guy...put "good" pop punk in my shoutbox, and I'll try them out. But, I doubt it'll go anywhere... |
gabethepiratesquid
03.26.11 | "The Wonder Years are terribad."
lolno. |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | --- oh dude you want to listen to some post-hardcore?
The genre mostly sucks, but you should listen to The Word Alive.
And yeah, this genre is the worst. Don't try to get me to like it, either, I've HEARD Blessthefall and Alesana, and Escape the Fate, and I didn't like them and people around me that like post-hardcore as I know it like them, the genre is so bad!---
this is you |
dnor
03.26.11 | i don't give the genre much of a chance... because it's just not my style. hence my lack of knowledge into "good" pop-punk.
I'm an egocentric douche that listens to a few different genres and when somebody who has an opposing view on one of said genres voices his opinion that he's entitled to, I plan on attempting my best efforts for a modern day crucifixition on that person.

03.26.11 | it's not the fact that you have an "opposing" view on the matter, it's that you have an incredibly ignorant one which you somehow still feel entitled to speak strongly about |
dnor
03.26.11 | if by speak strongly, you mean me stating i dislike the genre i like to consider myself "blissfully" ignorant to by my own choice. and also innocently saying that its just not "my style" of music...then yes, that is me. |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | why'd you put quotes around "blissfully"? lol |
ConsiderPhlebas
03.26.11 | Punchy reply, dnor |

03.26.11 | "Pop Punk Blows."

03.26.11 | Haven't read this thread or anything, so sorry if this isn't hte kind of thing you're looking for, but definitely check out The Matches' E. Von Dahl Killed the Locals. |
dnor
03.26.11 | because i'm not actually blissful in my ignorance...content would have been a better suited word.
thanks phelb |
SeaAnemone
03.26.11 | yeah but I never said you were blissfully ignorant or content in your ignorance I just said you were ignorant. I don't get what you were trying to repute. |

dnor
03.26.11 | and in my opinion, from what i've heard in the genre, and from the stereotype of the STYLE of pop-punk...i do think it blows. but, i'll listen to your recs and see if my position shifts. |
