Top 10 Bands Everyone Listens to but Eventually Grows Out Of
Simple Plan is a French-Canadian pop rock/pop-punk band from Montreal, Quebec. The band has released six albums. I'm 15 and still listen to Simple Plan. I'm not saying that I won't grow out of it eventually though. However My friend's dad also listens to Simple Plan and has done since he was a kid.
For a lot of people, Simple Plan is the quintessential "grow out from" band, there's a lot of people who like them at one point but after another they don't stick with them anymore
They are the poppiest of pop punk, while bands like MCR, Green Day, Sum 41, Blink-182 and even FOB had a lot of edge and personality in it, Simple Plan is just like the most family friendly "punk" band out there
Staind was a post-grunge/alternative metal band formed in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1995.Staind is Aaron Lewis (vocalist and guitarist), Jon Wysocki (drummer, left in 2011), Johnny April (bassist), and Mike Mushok (guitarist). After Jon's departure Sal Giancarelli filled in as drummer until... read more
Similar case to Simple Plan
However Staind has some sense of edginess through their music (after all they are a nu metal band) however, from all the nu metal bands out there, Staind is by far the dullest and most generic from them all

Hoobastank is an American rock band, formed in 1994 in Agoura Hills, California with lead singer Doug Robb, guitarist Dan Estrin, drummer Chris Hesse, and original bassist Markku Lappalainen. Get very big thanks to one hit "The Reason" and people kinda accepted them for that, however they just feel like a lite version of Incubus with Papa Roach + Sum 41 influence that doesn't really fit at all with the music, and doesn't make it really good
Good Charlotte is an American pop-punk band from Waldorf, Maryland that formed in 1996. Since 1998, the band's constant members have been lead vocalist Joel Madden, lead guitarist and vocalist Benji Madden, bassist Paul Thomas, rhythm guitarist and keyboardist Billy Martin and drummer Dean Butterworth,... read more

Papa Roach is an American rock band from Vacaville, California. Formed in 1993, their first major-label release was the triple-platinum album Infest. Similar case to Hoobastank, got really popular but thanks to the lack of variety and new ideas, people just forgot about their existence

Rollin' is a decent, but other than that I don't like them very much. There songs are either cringy, really bad or just mediocre at best.
Do I really need to explain this one?

The band comprises vocalist David Draiman, bassist John Moyer, guitarist Dan Donegan, and drummer Mike Wengren. They are known for songs like "Down With the Sickness" and "Stricken".

The band's best-known line-up consisted of lead vocalist Scott Stapp, guitarist and vocalist Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall, and drummer Scott Phillips. A lot of people known Creed back in the day, but right after all the memes, people realizing Scott Stapp was an awful singer and the existence of the superior Alter Bridge (conformed by 3 members of the band) People finally give up with Creed

I also remember the time they were at the top 10 in the list "Best Bands of all time"
