There’s so much more to its history than just the TRLor Warped Toureras, though. So we’ve compiled them, the 25 most influential pop-punk songs. Now, we’ve tried to give each era fair representation. Yes, a bulk of the big hits came in the late ’90s and early 2000s. But other songs, which may be a smidge less popular or pop punk, helped the genre s...
The evidence is anecdotal, but most show enthusiasts will agree few songs are coveredmore frequently by scene favorites than the Ramones’ “Blitzkrieg Bop.”The song helped launch not only the band but a roaring New York punk scenethat eventually spilled across the country. Featuring the “Hey, hos” and bubbly guitar riffs that made the band radio acc...
Buzzcockslived somewhere between Paul McCartneyand the Sex Pistols. The pop punk we think of piggybacked off ’80s punk and emo, but it’s the Buzzcocks they mirror stylistically. Their songs were short, combining pop storytelling with a punk attitude. Buzzcocks were more polished and less political than the era’s punks with plenty of sappy, romantic...
If pop punk was conceived when the Ramones first performed “Blitzkrieg Bop” at a belligerent New York club, it was truly born six years later when Descendentsreleased Milo Goes To College. The 22-minute sprin...
Pop punk failed to gain steam following Milo Goes To College. The hardcorescene owned the ’80s until Bad Religionsanded the edges with their third album, Suffer. “The record changed everything,” NOFX’s Fat Mike describes.He notesit “really changed the course of NOFX from being a hardcore band to a melodic hardcore band.” The album’s title track tur...
The punk, pop-punk, emo and post-hardcore scenes often run together. You can, in large part, thank the legendary Jawbreakerfor that. Expanding on the flash-in-a-pan D.C. emo scene, the charismatic New Yorkers helpedfreeze the public’s eye on punk rock in the early ’90s when grungeowned the alternative stage. Their 1990 album, Unfun, is a beloved cl...
Like Bad Religion, Pennywiseedge closer to the punk side of the pop-punk spectrum. But the band who performed at the first Warped Tour, later closing out the last, built on Suffer’s success with their debut self-titled album in 1991. Its highlight was “Bro Hymn”a soaring tune that offers the “whoahs” and substance often not found in traditional pun...
Shortly before Jawbreaker hit pay dirt by touring with Nirvanain 1993, a young Billie Joe Armstrongcrafted Green Day’s “Longview,” named after the Washington citywith a population of less than 40,000 people, debuting it in 1992. Ironically, a song about boredom launched the careers of one of music’s most entertaining trios. “Longeview” became the f...
The first big wave of pop punk crashedashore the music world in the mid-’90s. MxPxhighlighted the era with the single“Chick Magnet,” a clear predecessor to New Found Glory, Simple Plan and others. The song’s bouncy guitar work and chunky bassline meshed with Mike Herrera’s nasally vocals makes it stop one on the road trip to 2000s pop punk. The ban...
The importance of No Doubt’s breakthrough song is obvious but worth noting—a band with a frontwoman with a song about women’s empowerment finally made it. Women certainly influenced punkdecades before Gwen Stefani. But there was something about “Just A Girl” that temporarily broke the misogyny, softening a music scene that rarely encouraged women t...

- Discount, ‘Half-Fiction’ (1997) Long before transitioning into bluesy vamp acts the Kills and the Dead Weather, Alison Mosshart reigned as a rambling soprano during her six-year tenure in Discount.
- RVIVR, ‘RVIVR’ (2010) RVIVR don’t necessarily recall the sound of fellow Olympians Bikini Kill, but these fierce feminist punks mirror the spirit of the Riot Grrrl movement – coming off as muscular while wholly avoiding machismo.
- 5 Seconds of Summer, ‘5 Seconds of Summer’ (2014) With their self-titled debut, 5 Seconds of Summer presented themselves as the perfect marriage of boy band and rock group – accomplishing what so many pop-punk acts always seemed to aspire to, but could never quite realize.
- Joyce Manor, ‘Never Hungover Again’ (2014) Joyce Manor’s early years were spent oscillating between frenetic punk and heart-on-sleeve pop. “The first thing we did was pop-punk wanting to be hardcore, and we succeeded,” guitarist-singer Barry Johnson told L.A.
