I did not say that it was all shit. I said that 99.99% of it was shit. I liked old Green day and I like the Offspring.
You'll find that almost everyone will agree that GC and SP are shit. ✅
Now I can't speak for all of the following bands, but pop-punk isn't bad if you know what to listen to/look for. For example, ignore bands like Simple Plan and Good Charlotte and maybe look into one of these bands:
Alkaline Trio
Beatnik Termites
blink-182
Boris the Sprinkler
Bum
Goldfinger
Green Day
Head
Jawbreaker
Lawrence Arms
Lagwagon (independent)
Me First & The Gimme Gimmes (independent)
The Mr. T Experience
MxPx
Nerf Herder
No Use for a Name (independent)
The Offspring
The Matches
Parasites
Queers
Squirtgun
Screeching Weasel
Vindictives
Zoinks!
The truth is I do hate a lot of whats on MTV or the radio thats being called pop punk but I got a couple good new punk bands that are pop in the sense that the Ramones were:
The Exploding Hearts (too bad three members died a couple years ago)
The Briefs
The Pink Spiders
Search them on Myspace if you like Ramones or anything along the lines of Blink 182 you'll like them.
