BUZZCOCKS TO BUBBLEGUM: A POP PUNK COMPILATION

Well, here it is. No Green Day or Blink-182-esque bands, if y'all are wondering. I was thinking about putting some Riverdales on it, but there's enough Bubblegum as it is.

1. Screeching Weasel "Cool Kids"
Screeching Weasel are at the top of their game when it comes to pop punk. They're immature and catchy, and this song is no exception.

2. Teenage Bottlerocket "Fall For Me"
One of the members from The Lillingtons is in this fairly new pop punk in band. This band is Screeching Weasel for the 2000's, just as, if not more catchy.

3. The Buzzcocks "Fiction Romance"
You can't do a pop punk compilation and not include The Buzzcocks. This is song is powered by a cool riff and a standard pop punk beat. Great stuff.

4. Jawbreaker - Save Your Generation
Somewhat darker pop punk, but the awesomeness is still there.

5. Descendents "I'm The One"
Descendents were originally a hardcore punk band, so their brand of pop punk is considerably different than the some of the other ones on this compilation, but it's still fun and lighthearted.

6. The Lillingtons "I Saw The Apeman"
The masterpiece of The Lillingtons' epic concept album "Death By Television". Maybe not, but it's a good time.

7. Lagwagon "Weak"
You didn't think I was going to make a pop punk comp and leave Lagwagon out, did you? Yes, they're "skate punk" if you ask all those guys on Last.fm, but they belong here just as much as they do at a skateboarding competition. This is a rockin' tune.

8. Sound Of A Revolution "Make It Last"
Last time I checked, these swedish guys are unsigned. Whatever, good song.

9. The Queers "I Wanna Be Happy"
Kay, I have almost nothing by The Queers on this machine, but this song definitely deserves a spot here. Very Ramonesy.

10. Bracket "Everyone Is Telling Me I'll Never Win"
Pop punk summed up in one song.
