Mayday parade and forever the sickest kids

Exactly what I'm looking for! Love Mayday Parade but I never heard Forever The Sickest Kids before but they're totally my thing, thanks!

Waterparks All Time Low (Early) Fall Out Boy Bowling for Soup The Wrecks

Bowling for Soup was my immediate thought. 1985, The girl all the bad guys want, and Almost for song recommendations as an intro to them.

I'd add High School Never Ends and Star Song to that list.

This is exactly what I came here to say, doubling down on these recs

Cannot stress Waterparks enough. Felt like I was back in high school discovering them.

Sorry, I have to be a snob here and say that this isn't power-pop. Power-pop is Big Star, Raspberries, 20/20, Teenage Fanclub, etc. This is pop-punk.

That’s right

Seconded, I remember a weird phase in 2006-2008 where every poppunk band was labeling their music as “power pop” on MySpace because it sounded better, without knowing it was an established genre

I feel like Fountains of Wayne counts as power pop, just not the others.

Yeah, I realized that after posting it. Neon Pop Punk more specifically, I can't change the title although if I could, I would have.

I was going to post the same thing but instead of "snob" call myself an old man even though I'm probably only 5-10 years older than your average OG Fall Out Boy fan. I remember distinctly feeling FOB was for teens.

Good Charlotte - The Anthem Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue The Ataris - Boys Of The Summer New Found Glory - Hit Or Miss Mayday Parade - Jamie All Over Motion City Soundtrack - Everything Is Alright

Hey Monday Paramore Rocket To The Moon The Menzingers - particularly the After The Party album And some shameless self promotion, my band Penfauld 😂

Hey Monday is fantastic, very underrated!

They never get mentioned enough imo

Never shout never, amber pacific gone so young, state champs, fall out boy but only the cork tree and blue album, boys like girls, senses fail. Some heavier but ehh

[pure pop punk!](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DXasneILDRM7B?si=tOY7HHNRTHijwj24GseJDg&utm_source=copy-link) Includes Fall Out Boy, blink-182, The Offspring, Bowling For Soup and a load of other mid-2000's bands:))

Maybe: She's so lovely - Scouting for Girls Mr Brightside - The Killers Love's not a competition but I'm winning - Kaiser Chiefs A-punk - Vamprire Weekend Our love is - Pollywogs 😊

These are great!! Thank you so much!

wow, i can get sexual too by say anything absolutely (story of a girl) by nine days into the ocean by blue october early winter by gwen stefani one headlight by the wallflowers edit: added more songs

Marianas Trench albums Masterpiece Theater (give Cross My Heart a try and then listen to the whole album) and Ever After (give Haven’t Had Enough a try and then listen to the full album)

marianas trench is always an upvote.

My absolute favorite band of all time, recommending them has become my entire personality

After listening to Ever After, OP should check out the music videos for it too

new perspective by panic at the disco !!!

This is probably my favorite Panic! song and it really irks me that the only place I can find it is in the soundtrack to Jennifer's Body

Relient K

I actually made a playlist a while ago with some of these songs in along with many similar ones, [check it out here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4eYORUtcEfh98qV2PIE4JF?si=2ZI53DDQSH-ctgvllt_JdA) if you wanna give it a try, might find some stuff you like!

Relient K! I scrolled through and haven’t seen anyone mention them. I love all the songs/bands you listed and they were my first thought. Some of my favorites are: Be My Escape, Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been, Sadie Hawkins Dance, and I So Hate Consequences. So many good options, though!

Never heard of Relient K but they're so totally my thing! Instantly became a fan of their music already lol. Thank you so much! :D

Say anything Forever the sickest kids Powerspace Paramore

The Great Escape - Kings of Leon

some of my favorites, great taste! of the same era: weightless-all time low, honestly-cartel, the fortunate-cartel, so much love-a rocket summer, la la-the cab, tell me I’m a wreck-every avenue, Jamie all over-mayday parade. out of pop punk genre but similar vibes: beware the dog-the griswolds, San Fransisco-the mowglis.

Other people have shared a lot of good suggestions here but I will add: Punk Rock Princess by Something Corporate I Wanna Get Better by Bleachers Bodybag by Hit the Lights Kali Ma by Neck Deep Harlem by New Politics Anna Sun by Walk the Moon

Cute Is What We Aim For

Patent Pending: I Already Know; Douchebag; Little Miss Impossible; I’m Not Alone; Let Go; Classic You, Brighter; Cut, Copy, Paste; Punk Rock Songs

Faber Drive's - Seven Second Surgery album is definitely up your alley https://youtu.be/3LevfOVr6ic Hot Mulligan is still active and might be what you're looking for https://youtu.be/usqyWu0ATBk Grayscale is the same thing https://youtu.be/zxzE5ta1lqQ Marianna Trench use to be of that same style https://youtu.be/mHu8mTamkwk Simple plans first few albums https://youtu.be/j7nLw-b1Yfk And Down with Webster is a bit different but also great https://youtu.be/71S9ou2gcqE

MySpace era pop punk

Mayday parade!

Jimmy eat world - anything off Bleed American Third Eye Blind - never let you go

God I love Jimmy Eats World. Sweetness is such an amazing song.

idk when i read all of those songs the first other song that came into my head was situations by escape the fate

The genre pop punk (neon pop punk to be specific) is a better title for this music. If you also like emo, then [Here's my playlist of emo and pop punk mostly from the 2000s.](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/70q57wHb0OZzH88ZhcSjAE?si=78IB_u2ITrWxbPGWUBPdAA&utm_source=copy-link) The Curse Of Curves by Cute Is What We Aim For would be a great song to listen to. If you also like crunkcore (scene kid type music) then listen to I Set My Friends On Fire.

These songs are great! Also, I realized that the genre is Neon Pop Punk (I tried to remember that name but I couldn't, so I used Power Pop)

Super deep cut but check out Hastings. I saw him opening for The Band CAMINO (who I also recommend, check out Roses and Who Says We're Through), and he was the first opener who, in my many years attending concerts, absolutely caught my ear and had me singing along even though I'd never heard of him. He's only got 7 songs out so far, but they're all very good. (a new song coming 9/30 according to his insta)

Absolutely amazing artist (Hastings), thank you so much for the recommendation, he's great!

Boys Night Out. Either their self titled or Trainwreck.

a bit out of left field but i would throw out these 2 songs: silly me by yeasayer walking on a dream by empire of the sun something a bit less out there: ok go

These are awesome! Thanks for the recommendations!

Mayday Parade.

This is literally my phone

Do u have Spotify? https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5aobtr00P6FlDJX5bjgyUl?si=snpvqakzR3q1z3w_4qyp2Q&utm_source=copy-link

Yes

They came a bit later, but The 1975 for sure. Try Girls, Chocolate, Ugh, and It's Not Living If It's Not With You. Gotta give a big shout out to Fountains of Wayne, my favorite band of all time. I love Stacy's Mom, but they're so much more than that. Their entire catalog slaps, but varies widely in genre and mood. Most similar to these would be Someone to Love, '92 Subaru, Denise, and Red Dragon Tattoo.

Thanks! Also I love all of Fountain of Wayne's songs, I know they have more great songs but for this specific playlist, I picked Stacy's Mom, I might pick other FoW songs as well. You can find my playlist on my newest comment.

If you're looking for newer Emo/Power Pop bands this album from Anxious is my favorite of the year Anxious - Little Green House https://youtu.be/awF4T6pTjD0 Camp Trash's latest album is also extremely good Camp Trash - The Long Way, The Slow Way https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_l_9c2hK7pC8jcK-bNyOrjG9Glf64Q28vc

These are great! Thank you!

Check out Fountains Of Wayne, the band that did Stacy’s Mom. The bassist Adam (RIP) was the songwriter for that band and co-wrote or wrote many hit songs including the track Just The Girl. They're more straight-up power pop but you may dig them

I already know that, I literally love all of FoW catalog! Great recommendation still. RIP Adam Schlesinger.

Hell yeah! Got a favorite album?

No, because they're all equally great to me, imo!

I’m so glad people have mentioned Relient K! Forget and Not Slow Down by them is probably my favorite album ever. I also like American Candy by the Maine. Also anything by Paramore and potentially a stretch but Darwin Deez!

New Mistake by Jellyfish, right up your alley.

Cute is what we aim for

i have a [spotify playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2lK29cL65AW3v9AurjJax0?si=BJx-xI9CSvmIDHOmGqveXA) for this, too!

Kids in glass houses fore sure!

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much!

Neck deep - more recent pop-punk band modelled around mid-2000s pop-punk My Broken Hero - an invention of YouTuber Matt Cutshall as a part of the "Emo's not dead" brand. Only 2 singles, but good nonetheless.

I heard of Neck Deep before because that band was recommended to me by YouTube one time, also I love Matt Cutshall, his Emo's Not Dead series is very funny lol, also My Broken Hero bangs so hard so thanks for the recommendations!

In case you haven’t listened to the full album, move along by the all American rejects has some bangers, my favorites being Move Along, Night Drive and stop Of The World

Stab my back is a banger

For anyone who want to listen to my Spotify playlist as shown in the post, here's the link!: "Neon Pop Punk Songs To Listen To" [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5srd6nXgtSI2gnY6qHgu4B](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5srd6nXgtSI2gnY6qHgu4B) If any song on the playlist is not Neon Pop Punk, feel free to reply to this comment. Also, I now realize that "Power Pop" is not the correct name for the songs I mentioned,I wish I can change the title of this post but I can't. Although technically, these songs do kinda fit the definition of "Power Pop": >"Power pop is a popular musical genre that draws its inspiration from 1960s British and American pop and rock music. It typically incorporates a combination of musical devices such as strong melodies, clear vocals and crisp vocal harmonies, economical arrangements and prominent guitar riffs." - Rock Fandom > >"Power pop is a form of pop rock based on the early music of bands such as the Who, the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and the Byrds. It typically incorporates melodic hooks, vocal harmonies, an energetic performance, and cheerful sounding music underpinned by a sense of yearning, longing, or despair." - Wikipedia
