Non-Pop-Punk music you like

[Aaron]

metal, reggae, ska, punk, classic rock

[Thesumbum]

Thrash Metal, Folk Punk, "Orgcore," Punk Rock (most punk subgenres,) Ska, The Who, Older non-pop country. I don't listen to the radio because most of the music on it is shit, except when Green Day and Rise Against are on it (Never heard any other good music on it)

[Boni]

i listen to lot of genres
60's, 70's , 80's

I wouldn't class them as genres, more musical decades.

[Susanne]

I don't really like to think about what kind of genre I listen to because I'm not really good at recognizing what genre some music is. But a non-pop-punk band I love to listen to is Mew. Especially Snow Brigade is an amazing song.

[marcus10]

I usually listen punk rock or pop punk but a band with other style... BUllet for my valentine

Without trying to cause any trouble here, I think the topic title sounds a bit like you assume that everyone here mainly listen to Pop Punk music. Pop Punk isn't my preferred genre; I prefer Punk Rock, Hardcore, Melodic Hardcore and Post-Hardcore over Pop Punk. I used to listen a lot to Pop Punk a few years ago though, but I've sort of got tired of it.

Although I love a lot of Pop-Punk (e.g. The Sums, SYG, Old GC, Millencolin, NOT Blink 182!), I'm mainly into Metal/Rock.

This is oviously something we can argue about for all eternity, but for me Sum 41 is not Pop Punk. Simply because I think they have more heavy stuff than Pop Punk stuff, so to me they're more Punk Rock or Alternative Rock/Metal. But that's just my opinion, I'm no expert on the subject.

And by the way, Millencolin is NOT Pop Punk. Everyone here in Sweden rates them as a Skate Punk band, so they're Skate Punk. End of. =P

TROUBLE: Nah, I'm only kidding. I don't think Sum 41 is an Pop-Punk band period. They can't really be pigeon-holed like that, but I do believe their back catalogue is centred around Pop-Punk, or at least Rock music with pop melodies (a pop melody does not necessarily sound happy) .

I think Millencoln are a Pop-Punk band. Again, their music is centred around pop melodies, but clearly they have the speed and grit of Punk.

But w/e. To me genres are just a way of describing a band's sound, not describing the quality of the music.

Nice to hear it didn't cause any trouble =). Sum 41 are one of the bands I find the hardets to categorize in a genre actually, they mix so many genres into their music. Millencolin to me is actually Punk Rock, but I do understand why a lot of people rate them as Pop Punk. Here in Sweden more or less everyone I've talked to say they're Skate Punk, so they're kind of hard to categorize as well. I also agree with you on the last comment there, the genre doesn't really matter if you like the music, it's just a way to describe the sound.

I don't like to call Millencolin pop-punk, just beacuse the whole pop-punk image and scene is different now to what it was a few ago, and they just don;t seem to fit in it. I'd say they're more skate punk/punk rock.

[Emil]

Millencolin is skate-punk.

True. What's regarded as Pop-Punk nowadays has 0.00% punk rock content.

Anybody every listened to Electric Light Orchestra (ELO)? I think they're a great band.

yeah i've, my dad likes them

[tomhoppus]

There is music that isn't pop-punk? This is news to me.

[Emil]

I don't get how people can talk about punk music in the 80's. Green Day invented punk in 1995.

Green Day had some EP's out in the 80's, so that's why.

I hate Green Day except most of the 'American Idoit' album, which is odd as most people feel the opposite from that.

[stevie486]

Young Guns
The Killers
Feeder
Fightstar
Eminem
Biffy Clyro
