A music group of young men that produce popular music that usually appeals to a teenage female audience. Boybands may or may not play instruments, usually the difference between a band and a boyband is with the behavior of its fans. Fans of boybands are more attracted to the members(visually and romantically), and fans of bands only typically care about the music.
Characteristics of a boyband:
-Signed to a major record label
-All music is not written by band members
-Fans are focused on individual members, rather than the music
-Boybands usually promote a product (ex. holding a contest through retail company like Target or Walmart, or being in commercials that advertise something unrelated to their music)

Girl 1: "That new boyband, 5 seconds of summer, is all over the radio."
Girl 2: "Omg! No! They're a pop punk band!! I'm literally dying right now, how could you be so stupid?!?! Go to hell!! You're a bitch!!"
Girl 1: "They're actually a Boy Band, they don't write most of their pop song's music. They're signed to Capitol records, one of the biggest record labels in the world. They appeal to teenage "fangirls", and their concerts consist of obsessive girls screaming the members names."
Girl 2: "Shut up, freak! You're just stupid and jealous!!!!"
Girl 1: "I'm supposed to be jealous of a boyband that has annoying fans and who is hated by real pop punk bands?"
