“The pop-punk and emo scenes are two of rock music's definitive subcultures, often intertwined by heart-on-your-sleeve lyrics and infectiously catchy choruses. With nearly three decades having passed since the scene began to explode, here are the records that stood the test of time.

Primed by bands such as Ramones and Descendents, Green Day kicked off the pop-punk revolution with 1994's Dookie. From there, bands such as Blink-182, Sum 41 and Fall Out Boy took the reins and enjoyed multi-platinum success while inspiring a new generation of musicians.

With the turn of the millennium, emo and post-hardcore began to define the underground rock world. While bands such as the Used and My Chemical Romance taught kids that it was okay to be vulnerable, acts like Poison the Well and Alexisonfire delivered a heavier edge to scene music.”

I still regularly listen to a lot of the albums on this list. Some are guilty pleasures, some are genuinely great albums.

It's not a genre I'm much into - in fact it was the coverage of pop-punk which made me finally stop buying Kerrang! after many years - but I wondered if Sunny Day Real Estate would get a mention, and I'm glad to see they did.  That's the only album on the list I've got.

Cant imagine listening to any of those bar 20.

@Reverend ;

20. Descendents - Milo Goes to College - It’s an album I recognise the artwork from (probably from similar lists in the past) but I’ve never actually listened to. It’s on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/7ap2sARnQnkhfbUxYIEcu8?si=qYIq9h-wRiayOqEmEOGlLA so I’ll definitely give it a listen.

Some classics on that list that take me right back to my college days with my MiniDisk player!

I did a Spotify Playlist for all of the albums on this list, if anyone wants to hear it: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4hTYZVUKT9aK2xLqlx0zKV?si=f232a91d914549ad

If a specific song was listed in the Loudwire article, then I added them. If the album was written about generally & no song was mentioned, then I just added the 1st album track.

I'm not sure how to embed the Playlist (If you know, then please tell me & I'll add it) but I hope the link works O.K. ?

Enjoy!
