The turn of the new millennium was the golden age for pop punk, so we head back in time to reveal our favourite pop punk bands of all time…
With the release of Blink-182’s seventh album on the 1st of July, we asked ourselves whatever happened to the once-thriving world of pop punk? Where once the airwaves on both side of the Atlantic were filled with a mix of teen-angst and puerile lyricisms, now Mark Hoppus and co. seem to be the sole survivors flying the flag for mainstream pop punk.
So, if you’re feeling nostalgic, grab your Converse, dust off your skateboard and join us on our countdown the greatest pop punk artists of all time.
6. Avril Lavigne
Just missing out on the top five, but probably winning the worldwide competition for wall-space on teenagers’ walls in the 00s, is Avril Lavigne. The Canadian beauty burst onto the scene with Let Go in 2002 and didn’t look back. Proving girls could be just rebellious as boys, she produced some classic pop punk hits, before branching out into more pop- and electro-orientated tracks later in her career.
She may have switched youthful rebellion for outright sex appeal these days (not that we’re complaining!), but her earlier work makes her our all-time favourite rock heroine.
