a genre of tshitty overrated pop-punk music popularized by bands such as sum 41, good charlotte, and simple plan. This type of music in no way relates to past meaning of punk, but takes on a new form in meaning partying, girls and shopping at malls. It's basically what hair bands were in the 80's, cheezy bullishit.

Get the daft punkmug. A Middle finger to the progressive rock movement. Often consists of simple fith chord structures. However the music is not as important as the message; there are no rules.
Punk Rock can be divided into many sub-genres such as pop punk, street punk, nu punk, old skool punk stc.

Get the punk-assmug. pop punk is a style of music that combines the fast-paced rock rhythms of punk, and catchy hooks and melodies of pop. YES, bands like bowling for soup, fall out boy, relient k are considered pop punk. they have fast punk rhythms of normally 3-4 chords, but have catchy pop melodies. If you're going to say that pop punk isn't true punk, the ramones (the first punk band) had catchy fun light-hearted songs. Then the sex pistols came in and turned it into a political thing. pop punk is NOT powerpop (the click five, we the kings, boys like girls, etc.) people who listen to pop punk often appreciate the catchy melodies over the faced paced punk riffs.
Pop Punk - Blink 182, Good Charlotte, New Found Glory, Simple Plan, Bowling For Soup, All Time Low (before dirty work), Relient K, Green Day (later), Motion City Soundtrack, Fall Out Boy, FM Static, etc.

Get the lil punkmug. The best fucking music.
It's not dead.
Defend it.
When people hear pop punk they for some reason only think of Green day, meanwhile pop punk is it's own scene and even though theyhave contributed to it, they aren't it.
Pop punk a genre mostly for the young. For those kids who know they don't fit in.
Think New Found Glory. Blink 182. The Wonder Years. Man Overboard. Major League. Such Gold. Title Fight. This Time Next Year. Four Year Strong. I Call Fives. Tigers Jaw. And a fuckload more.
Pop punk can lean towards having a more hardcore sound and to being much more easycore.
Pop punk is a family.
