pop punk

Definition

A musical genre that took punk's rebellion, gave it a shower, some hair gel, and a record deal. Born in the '90s, it's punk rock's more commercially viable cousin—loud enough to annoy parents but catchy enough to chart on MTV. Features power chords, teenage angst, and lyrics about suburban ennui instead of actual social collapse.

Example Usage

My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy defined the pop punk sound of the 2000s with their eyeliner and emotions.
