Power Pop

A term coined by Pete Townshend of The Who. Power Pop is a Rock & Roll sub-genre that has its' roots from 60s Pop and Rock bands such as The Beatles, The Who, The Byrds, The Beach Boys, The Kinks, and The Hollies. Major Power Pop elements include strong melodies, upbeat guitars, and tight vocal harmonies.

The first true "Power Pop Wave" regarded by many Popsters began in the early 70s. With bands such as Badfinger, The Raspberries, and Big Star setting the rules, but at the same time embracing its' true 60s foundation. Through the late 70s and into the 80s, Power Pop began incorporating more Hard Rock, New Wave, and Punk Rock elements while still maintaining a strong Pop core. Bands like Cheap Trick, The Knack, The Flamin Groovies, XTC, 20/20, The Only Ones, The Beat, The Real Kids, and The Stems are strong examples of more complex varieties of Power Pop styles.

When the 90s came, the genre became less popular. But behind the shadows of the Grunge, Metal, Hip Hop, Rap, and Alternative movements, a new breed of Power Popsters have emerged. Jellyfish, Redd Kross, Teenage Fanclub, The Posies, Cotton Mather, and Sloan are prime examples.
