Some of In Flames' music is just as good as anything Big Star ever put out. .

if you're going to utilize genre titles, or characterize certain sounds, then, yes, you have to be restrictive in sound. Otherwise, using your definition of "pop that's louder than the Beatles", New Kids On The Block is power pop. Everclear is power pop. Alejandro Escovido is power pop. Nope.

As for In Flames, I must have missed their climb to legendary status, the adoration of their song-writing by two generations of artists, and the avid, almost hero-worship following of their fans. But I compliment you for being outrageous.
