It's true, plain punk is pop punk. Ramones, Sex Pistols, Bad Religion, Clash, Rancid, Casualties, all these bands that are considered "punk" just play pop songs with "anti establishment" lyrics.
^ Meh, Ramones were relatively poppy to begin with. And, while I like their music, wasn't what I'd consider punk. The Clash were sort of poppy. The Casualties weren't poppy, just aceholes. And Rancid...never really got into them. But I wouldn't say Bad Religion is pop with anti-establishment lyrics. Particularly not in the beginning.
Pop-punk is not punk, beat yr. own kid is right, it's a complete paradox.
^ We CAN agree, Snickers.
