Great genre, my favorite, skate punk, punk rock, pop punk, all great. This genre has really good guitar riffs and bass playing. It is fast and upbeat most of the time, which is why I like it. Fast and upbeat is my type. I have many songs I like from this genre, and this is a genre that is still good, even today in an awful period for pop music. I wish punk was mainstream, modern punk is still better than modern pop, so yeah. I like older punk too.

I like punk rock's guitar riffs. Especially Johnny Ramone's barre chords.

It's a pretty good fast genre that has evolved over the years.

I like ska/punk fusion. Skunk.

Hmm... I'd probably go with Weezer.

Niether are punk, they're more alternative, but I would go with Jimmy Eat World especially their works on future and everything before that.

Sum 41, I don't really like The Offspring, but it is an okay band though. But Sum 41 is much better, I used to confuse them with Blink 182 because they are similar, but some of their playing is different. definitely one of the best Canadian bands.

The Offspring.

Sex Pistol was influential. But in which way? for using swear words in their songs. Where ramones were more influential for their music. And Ramones didn't use that much swearing in their songs. In fact I doubt there are any song of their's which contain swearing.
And Sex Pistols only released in studio album. Where ramones did more. So Ramones are better. (historically).

The sex pistols further established punk ideology, while the Ramones just helped punk become more popular. However the Ramones where more talented.

American Idiot by Green Day

Ocean Avenue- Yellowcard.

California- blink-182

Avril Lavigne, Paramore, and Good Charlotte. They kinda suck and are too pop to be punk, and their songs are kinda annoying and boring.

In my opinion Good Charlotte's a terrible punk band.

Bowling for Soup

Both great bands, however, I chose Blink 182 because I like how they play better, Green Day has good playing, but Blink 182 has a more upbeat, louder type of playing which I like. Travis is just simply one of the best drummers that makes songs catchy, Tom DeLonge has an amazing voice and his guitar riffs are loud and unlike any other, and Mark is a good singer with great bass skills, he is self taught which is cool. Billie and Mark and Tom are all equally good singers, but I pick Travis over Tre Cool in drumming and Tom over Billie in guitar playing.

Both are iconic pop-punk bands but Green Day.

Green Day.

Blink 182

For Me I'd probably either say Dookie by Green Day.

American Idiot - Green Day (pop-punk).

Take Off Your Pants And Jacket by Blink 182 is my favorite album in punk.

Nimrod and Dookie, it's a tie for me

Who's better bassist? I'll go with Dee Dee Ramone.

Mike Dirnt, but both of them are good.

"Pop Punk" is such an oxymoron. What's next, Adult Contemporary Death Metal or Speed Metal Slow Jams?

Both are sub genres of Punk but Punk Rock.

Both are great, honestly, I don't know which one to choose.

Punk rock, but I have more pop punk songs than punk rock. so I listen more pop punk.

In 1983 there was always a group of high school aged kids ( I was 7) sitting in our neighborhood park playing punk rock on their "ghetto blaster". I was totally digging the music. I, very nervously, approached them and asked, "Who is this your listening too? " They're eyes lit up. One responded, "Wasted Youth". They were stoked I liked there music and were really nice to me. Then one day (they along with me were always in the park) one of them called me over and gave me a mixed tape of punk rock music.

Dead Kennedys.

There's an amazingly underrated band called Victim's Family that's punk, but after that I'd go with Operation Ivy

Thomas Matthew DeLonge is the best punk singer and Green Day and Blink 182 are my favorite bands.

Eh for me it's Green Day/ Billie Joe Armstrong.

Green Day and especially Blink 182.

All The Small Things, it is a more fun song.

When I Come Around.

When I Come Around

I don't listen to either lol

Travis Barker, he had to learn all the Blink 182 songs in a very low amount of time when he joined. It would be literally impossible for me to do that. Travis sure has talent.

Johnny Ramone!

Both, I like Smash Mouth's All Star, thanks to Shrek, I know that awesome song. But I pick Blink 182 because I like more of their songs and they have more music.

The All-American Rejects, I like their song Dirty Little Secret, the intro of that song sounds like a skate boarding song, which I like.

Dead Kennedys
