I read on Wikipedia that scene fashion stayed popular in the early '10s on the West Coast, but not on the East Coast.

I'm also going to throw a bone and say it didn't catch on in the East until 2007. 2007, 2008, early 2009 = emo shag era. 2006 was half and half.

Also, blue/green/orange hair is very late 2000s of you.  ;) Auditioning for Paramore?

That song is hilarious  ;D This is the definitive version.


Scene culture has a weird history. People called poseurs "scenesters" as far back as 1996 when I first started going to shows. Hell, in 2004, faux-Emo kids were called "scene kids", too.

Ok, fine, even though I know that this isn't true, let's just say 2000-2002 = frosted tips and spikes; 2004-onward = sh!tty slicked up hair. Deal? ;)

Ew gross. I dyed my hair blue/green/orange (no, not at the same time) because of NoFX.

Haha, I agree! So much better than the original. Jesus, the way he sings those lines is too good. Only in 1998-2002, man. Funny thing is, he can try to sound "street" when he raps but he still ends of sounding like a sad bleached hair pop punk kid. Speaking of Punky raps...

Get Back - Zebrahead (1998) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHF3CcN-ga4

Pop Punk and Rap mixing together once again!! This song is pretty rad. He even says a line about my main man Trump (word). I dunno what it was about Pop Punk and Rap. Who thought it was a good idea and why did everyone buy the CD's? I mean it sounds good but still...

LOL I'm not sure if I like rap and rock mixing very much. Actually, I've been having mixed experiences with zebrahead in general :(

I didn't like The Playmate of the Year song you linked in another thread much either. *hides*

I'm not mad, don't worry. :P Rap and Rock isn't for everyone so you're fine but I don't know if you'd like the early 00's (1998-2002) very much because Rap and Rock always mixed when you least expected it (i.e. when Good Charlotte randomly add raps in their music about OJ Simpsons. Where the hell did that come from???).

The Weather or Not - d.b.s. (2001) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC_uM2-cNvs

Man, this song is too rad for words. These guys are from B.C., too! Thing about these guys is their transition into Emo is weirder than Sewing With Nancie/The Reason. So, they started in the early 90's and from 1994-1996, their albums are pure Pop Punk. Roughly, around 1997 they recorded all these Post-Hardcore/Emo songs but never released them (until 2000). Instead, in 1998, they released another album that was pretty Emo but still had a bit of their Pop Punk sound left in. Then, finally, in 1999 they went full on Post-Hardcore/Emo and continued this sound until 2001 when they broke up. Listening to this type of calm Emo sh!t brings me back to sitting outside on a warm summer night at 12 am in 1998-2002 n thinkin' 'bout sh!ts. Man, those were good times.

You have to listen to these songs together. Why? Because it's like a Hip Hop Feud. ;) Read the lyrics and you'll see the connections between the two.

Haha, that's super cool! Why were they feuding though? ;D These songs are really good. They're poetic too, in a MySpace kind of way. ;) ;) (admittedly this is way better than mid-2000s stuff)

Ok, so Jesse (Brand New's singer) and John (Taking Back Sunday's second singer. The less whiny one) liked the same girl, right? So John made out with her and Jesse got super pissed and they both blew it out of proportion and these songs were created. Almost the entire albums (Your Favorite Weapon/Tell All Your Friends) are about each other and how much of a sh!thead they think they are. It is not poetic in a MySpace way! This is poetic in a 1998 Keepsake/Lifetime/Save The Day way. ;)

Yeah... I saw that... >:( How on earth is a 2002 album a part of the "fudgin myspaze dazy lol"!? People can say what they want about every other TBS/Brand New album but their first albums are real classic Emo albums. I really like Your Favorite Weapon, too. It's their best. Thoughts on Tell All You Friends? That album is kinda funny because you can tell it's pre-Myspace (I shake my fist at that guy) because of how off key they're singing. This sound is straight outta the late 90s! >:(

See, I told ya! They're so Emo that they can't even confine their emotions to themselves; they have to take them out on other people. ;D

"Fudging good MySpace days" I'm still pissed off about that sh!t.

Anyways...

You Are The One - The Kobanes (2009) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX08nJmtdlg

I'm listening to this because the drummer of this band recommended me his stuff so I decided to give it a listen. So far this is my favorite of theirs. They are a rude, crude, un-PC throwback to the mid 90's-early 00's style of Pop Punk. Some of their albums are even a bit more late 80's-ish (not this one). I am surprised this came out in 2009! Better than the MySpace garbage from 2004-2007.

When that started off I was thinking "woah that's way too hipster for you". It's really good!

Haha, I can see why the intro would make you think that but then it goes into straight 1995 Pop Punk! The drummer is a really cool dude. I've been talking to him recently and he knows all the right bands. He's roughly the same age as me which makes me feel more connected when listening to this band as these dudes are of my own age.

Makes sense, because I feel a connection to Miley Cyrus' music. not

My friends are nostalgic over The Fall of Troy and Alexisonfire.

Yes, yes. It's Nu Metal Rappy Pop Punk but it's the only thing close to Nu Metal (and Breaking Benjamin's debut) that I like. Yes, they rap about "frontin'" and "puttin' ya handz up" but it's a good song, dammit! It reminds me of both: a summer afternoon in 2002 sittin' around and having Rap Metal Pepsi commercials infiltrate my television every 5 minutes and a warm summer night in 2002 once again having Rap Metal Pepsi commercials infiltrate my television every 5 minutes. Good times... 

Haha, I listened to it yesterday when you mentioned it in the other thread. It's a decent tune, but the lyrics are a bit bland :P

Good. I am glad you took a good listen to the 2002 Rap Rock goodness. ;)

I like the one without the monks in the background but I am glad that commercial exists in general because it brings back good memories of the good ol' days. The lyrics are pretty bland 'cause they're all about "yo u wuz frontin n I aint answerin my phone smoke up up ya handz up" but the lyrics and vibe of the music brings you right back. It's like a time machine this song.

Woah, I actually got recommended an Authority Zero song by Spotify last Monday (their song Revolution off their Andiamo album). I like this one more though, it's fun and upbeat! :D All the pop-punk singers have the same voice I think. They're all the same people. ;D

Oh man, I can't believe they recommended that to you. That album's all sucky and political. A Passage in Time is the raddest sh!t, though! I sent you another song "Over Seasons" (which is more Ska) off this one. One of the best. Well, not a lot of them sound like Bad Religion. Maybe... I dunno, Billie Joe or something?

Ehh... It's political (not real 00's political, though) but it isn't very good. Unless you mean the Reset song which is somewhat political (not in a real 00's way) but is super poppy early 00s pop punk.

Of course! 2002 was when we saw the real Simple Plan take the stage. The spirit of 1998 was strong with them in those days. You know, I still own their first CD along with Reset's first two.

Ok, I'm listening to it right now and I really don't like this... Oh god... How do you listen to this??

Do you think the heartbreak of a poor Pop Punk soul is funny?? Do you realize how hard the early 00s were to live through? We had to fight back with Zebrahead and Sum 41. No wonder Good Charlotte added all those raps in their songs. Clearly their girlfriends were leaving them but they had to think fast. "Yo, I can rap too! OJ Simpson killed his wife but there ain't no 25 ta life!"

No, I will write a Rap Rock song about it. ;)

Jesus, this is post-Justin Zebrahead, too! 8-P I forgot how bad Matty's singing was at accompanying Ali with his raps. This is just as bad as their cover of "Girlfriend"... Waste of Mind to MFZB kicked ass but when Justin left in 2004, it's clear to me that they had to succumb to low levels just to eat a meal. The real 00's were not kind. Justin's still a cool guy, though. I see why he left the train wreck in 2004 when faux-Emo was taking over. What's Rap Rock doing in 2006, anyway? It died in 2003!

Justin was a super cool dude. He was the glue of Zebrahead and when he left they took a turn for the worst.

For your information, there is both 70's and 80's in that video. Also, it does not look real 00's at all! That music video looks more like something from 1999. >:( Besides, 80's nostalgia in the 00's was so poorly done that you can tell. 80's nostalgia in 1998-2002 was better. 8)

Oh wait, since 80's nostalgia started in 1997, I guess that means the real 00's started in 1997, huh?

You mean Jackie? ;)

Jackie Chan is pretty upset about Mr. Trollpoke calling the video I sent "real 00s" as it focuses on the good times and is not real 00s in the slightest! There are tons of videos exactly like that from 1999. >:(

Paperwalls - Strung Out (1997) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTRd5zHw0Uk

Strung Out will always be one of my favorite bands. This is another album that got me though high school (a.k.a. an album I'd listen to while skipping). I love this song! You can really hear the early 2000's taking shape right here. Brings me back to the days of skateboarding, sippin' on some Pepsi Blue and Surge while playing the mighty PS1/PS2. 8)

This thread needs some dustin' off since you're back, Trollypoke.

I Won't Be There - Simple Plan (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjrLeV3kTHw

This song is just too much fun. It's one of my favorites off of No Pads, No Helmets... Just Balls. I get a strong Gob vibe from this song.

Great song!  :D My favourite off that album are I'm Just A Kid and The Worst Day Ever ;D

AND IT FEELS LIKE I'M LIVING THE WORST DAY OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!!!!

Man, that song is hilarious. His biggest problem is that he can't hit the snooze button on his alarm clock in the morning when he wants to keep sleeping... Aaahhh, good times listening to Simple Plan in simple ol' 2002 when it still felt like 1998. How I miss those days... 8)

Wondering and My Bloody Valentine - Good Charlotte (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2y-90tSkyg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gSz7QyQ4Pg

Young and Hopeless is such a good record I can just listen to it over and over again! Wondering, I think, is the best song off the album or at least it's up there. It's so simple and catchy and reminds me of something off of Lit's A Place in the Sun. How can you beat that? My Bloody Valentine is really good as well, my favorite part is the catchy verses. It sounds like a Sum 41 song if Sum 41 sang about killing the boyfriends of girls they like.

I love everything about that album! Growing up I would hang out at two neighbourhoods, mine and the one across the street. The one across the street was social housing and mine was lower middle class-ish and in 2003 whenever I hopped over to a friend's house in the other neighbourhood, they'd start blasting Lifestyles Of The Rich And The Famous  >:( they wanted to rob my house! They wouldn't let me listen to the song by myself either. But I used my mad stacks and bought the album for myself. Serves them right.  8)

Hahaha! Did they start rapping about the evils of OJ Simpson and the crack smoking mayor of DC at you, too? That's a funny story. Good thing you used your mad stacks to buy the album yourself because it's one of the best. A lot of sounds from that album sound strongly influenced by MxPx's Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo. Something tells me GC were listening to a lot of it while writing the songs.

Miracle - Unsung Zeros (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i4nPzHWk3I

These guys are another super good Pop Punk band from the early 2000's. This isn't actually an album track, it's an exclusive for the Warped Tour 2002 comp (which is really good). This is what Warped used to be about! Good bands playing good music before it became some stupid fashion show for MySpace faux-Emo kiddies. Their albums People Mover and Moments from Mourning are really good, too!

Hahaha, I haven't gone through a heartbreak since... 1996/1997-ish? Yeah, man, The Ataris rule! The whole album is up on YouTube, though. Just look up "Look Forward to Failure by The Ataris" and you'll find it. Mark Hoppus even does guest vocals on one song!

The Unsung Zeros are another super rad band, man! He definitely has that standard Pop Punk voice.

Timberwolves at New Jersey - Taking Back Sunday (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PBy3Lwi4Lo

I was listening to this album a few days ago and I never realized how god damn cynical they are. They're Emo but they aren't even that whiny; I mean, they are but they've got more of a pissy and finger pointer-y edge than other bands. This song in particular. The best part is their clever videos. This has probably gotta be one of the best pre-historic Emo videos of all time.

Up All Night - Unwritten Law (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azbzkeTHXKQ

Unwritten Law is just a good ol' fashioned speedy Pop Punk band in general! This one's super rad. All their albums from Blue Room to Elva are some of the best Pop Punk released during that time period and will always remain some favorites of mine.

Inside - Sw1tched (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2GNB5pOQsA

I probably shouldn't admit to liking this song but I can't help but it enjoy it. It's all Nu Metally but it's got a Pop Punk edge to it; enough for me to listen to and enjoy. I remember when this was a pretty big hit in 2002 back when it was played over the radio and MTV. I remember simply walking into the Warped Tour to find out "oh boy! Sw1tched are playing! Gee whiz, I'm thrilled to see another Nu Metal band on Warped!" I still like to listen to this song every once in a while...

The comments on another video (which isn't HQ like this one) are the best 'cause it's a buncha dudes around my age talking about how sh!tty music got after 2003. It's good that others also embrace the facts about how, when the faux-90's/what-if 00's ended, music died along with it.

Hey Catrine - Lifetime (1997) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLTUHMx8F7g

I've been listening to some Lifetime recently and I just had to post this rad song. These guys are some of the best and definitely something you shouldn't miss out on. Back in the early 00's, a lot of Emo-Pop Punk bands would make records that were all about trying to do your own version of Jersey's Best Dancers. I remember when Taking Back Sunday first came out with Tell All Your Friends and they were often referred to as a "slightly more polished version of Lifetime". I definitely agree with that and it's too bad TBS couldn't continue sounding like Lifetime on their later records. They really lost a lot when John Nolan left the band in 2003...

Jersey's Best Dancers is a really good Emo-Pop Punk album that you should check out if you like TBS and The Movielife. It's even got a lot of good speedy parts!

Those dudes in the Taking Back Sunday video are dressing very real 2000s emo :o this leads credence to my theory that the core 2000s possibly started late 2002.

I really like that Unwritten Law song :D

You're going to make me start liking Nu Metal... That song wasn't half bad. :o I guess there's more to this genre than Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park.

That Lifetime song sounds very similar to another 90s song I heard recently. I can't find it anymore though :( Great song though O0

What!? How!! >:( As you see, his hair is cut above the eyes, which was very common to do starting around 1995/1996. Justin Pearson looked more real 00s Emo in 1996, so I guess 1996 is real 00's, too? It is not! I saw many, many kids dressed just like Adam when I first got into Emo in 1995. This was nothing new in 2002. He is also wearing a small chain on his jeans with visible keys, very much a mid 90s emo thing. I see no make up, no fringes, no skinny jeans (I see regular gap jeans), no nail polish, nothing. The real 00's did not begin until 2003 at the earliest! The rest of the guys all have short hair, too! I don't know what video you're even watching! This is ridiculous! You must be watching Fall Out Boy's "A little Less Sixteen Candles, A little more Taxi Driver" or Panic at the Disco's "I Write Sh!tty Music, What a tragedy!" and forgot what video you were on and thought "Oh! This must be 2002 Taking Back Sunday!" I decide to share my music with you and you go off insulting it with your cruel words! Very, very upset and disappointed with the things you say. You are spitting upon the great early 00s with your words!!

I'm glad you like it!

No! Nu Metal is terrible and there are no good songs... Ok, maybe a few... ...Like one or two, maybe...

Yeah, man, Lifetime rules but you gotta take back what you said about Taking Back Sunday 'cause that's just disrespectful.

I don't not know why I continue to post in such a blasphemous thread... My god, some of the words spoken here are akin to support Trump policies (I do not see how they are dressing like real 00s emo, you are blind!!) but... I will post some more...

Grow Up - Home Grown (1998) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7zcsyebNCI

I like how they made two Simple Plan references in this song before Simple Plan even existed. It even sounds like a Simple Plan song! Home Grown never disappoint (actually, never mind, their 2004 EP was a big disappointment), they are always usually super good.

Top Secret - The Parasites (1999) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YNsU83A_0U

I guess this song is probably a real 00s song too by some twisted logic... ::) Mhmm, yep...

This song's off an old comp I've got from Go Kart Records. It's called "Go Kart vs. The Corporate Giant 2" (obviously) and yes, I also own the first one. It's pretty rad! Got loads of good bands on it; this one is one of my favorites.

Also, have you seen the new Alternative Press issue?

http://www.altpress.com/images/uploads/news/Header-717x463.jpg

I blame you for this!!! >:( >:( >:(

You linked me Grow Up, Somewhere on Fullerton and a Passage in Time before. You tryna test me? I know cause I couldn't stop listening to Somewhere on Fullerton lol.

I like the saxophone in the NoFx song LOL

The Top Secret sing starts with "every second seems to last forever" which kind of sounds like "every summer seems to be last forever" in the Summer of '69 song. Of course I'm talking about the Bowling For Soup version, not the Bryan Adams one. So this song is definitely heading for the Spirit of 04 when they released the cover.

Song is awesome though! I love Go Karts, but I'm not sure if I like Corporate Giants more. Hard choice.

Those guys have spikey hair. Isn't this what you wanted :o

Ain't nuttin' but a 1998 thing, homie. The spirit of 1998 is strong with all these songs. Somewhere on Fuller is too sick, man! Absolutely one of my favorites from way back when!

Haha, me too. NoFX does a lot of that kinda thing when they go all Ska.

WHAT!? YOU EVEN SAY THESE THINGS ABOUT 1999, TOO!? I just... I just don't know what to say about that... No heading to spirit of 2004 here... >:(

Go Karts have pretty good Pop Punk. Corporate Giants don't. Well, I guess they do? It's hard to say.

That isn't spiky hair! Those are those stupid slicked back haircuts. See, you keep saying 1999, 1997, 2002, 1996, 1941 is heading for the "spirit of 2004" and now look what you've done! You've got Weezer and Panic at the Disco colaborating with each other... >:(

Oh is that what that is? Do you think they can revive punk rock?

Oh is that what that is? Do you think they can revive punk rock?


What!? No!!! First of all, Weezer is the band that made pre-historic Emo somewhat mainstream in 1994 with their whining. They're ok, but definitely not Punk... And... Panic at the Disco!? No, of course they won't bring back Punk Rock! They were never Punk!!! Not even Pop Punk! How does that one Fever album even count as Pop Punk, anyway!? See? You kept saying crap about "oh 1997 had the spirit of 2004" and now look! Did you look!? Take another good look...

http://www.altpress.com/images/uploads/news/Header-717x463.jpg

This is all your fault! You let the alternate 1997 universe seep into the real world and now I bet if I were to time travel back to 1997, it would be gone... Replaced with Emo fringes and Myspace... All thanks to you! >:(

How do you know they aren't wearing boot cut jeans underneath? Suddenly they'd look very emo especially with those glasses.

They have to be bootcuts or fitted jeans (no, not skinny!) from the gap, though. What if they bought them from Walmart!? That is false Emo and not true to the fashion.

Also, no. Rivers has always been an Emo nerd so him, sure, but douche-whatever-his-face will never be a part of that! Man, this is awful. Why are Weezer and Panic at the Disco even collaborating!? What sense does this make? None!!!

Yeah... You see, back in the good old days Emo used to mean bands like Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional, (old) Taking Back Sunday, Weezer, The Get Up Kids, etc. Now, you kids, you ruined it and even worse you're taking Weezer with you...  >:( >:(

I will listen to some Jimmy Eat World instead of this Panic at the Disco nonsense...

Oh yeah, the video is pretty funny if you wanna check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWb6bb5hnBU

Jimmy Eat World never disappoints. Amazing song. I should take time to listen to the whole album.

You linked that Over Seasons song before. Remember when I said the video looked kinda mid-2000s and you wrote the rage reply  ;D

Ska music sounds cool. Why are Ska kids embarrassed to admit they're Ska kids? Trumpets and saxophone with a guitar sounds like a good idea. You Gotta Go is good stuff, Someday I Suppose felt kinda slow. Guitar and trumpet should be loud! ;D

I really like Help save the youth of America from exploding  :D that's a crazy fun song.

Let Go is a good song too O0

As for me I've been listening to these dudes recently, they're semi-popular in Ontario. They sound a lot like Neon Trees to me :D

Everything looks like the mid 00's to you (when it looks nothing like it!) whether it's MxPx, Authority Zero or Taking Back Sunday... >:(

Haha, I don't know why. I just remember when the Ska kids all decided one by one "hey, how about we go Emo and listen to Weezer!" in the late 90's and early 00's. It was only the kids because none of the bands did this.

Jesus! These guys are super hipster! Did they shoot this video on Super 8 film, too? Too much 2010's indie pop for me... :-\\

Boring - blink-182 (1997) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmlYwpBaYhE

Oh man, is this song fast or what! :D Dude Ranch is my favorite blink album; totally rad and got me into the band.

It does look mid 2000s (2004ish) though lol. Only the rapping and rocking is making it early 2000s.

Those lyrics are very emo. T_____T Good song.

That song is Boring. Get it? I'll be here all week. That cow kiss at the end though  :( that's sexual assault, bad memories man. The song is good though.  ;D

What, which one? None of those had rapping! None of those styles looked very 2004-like, either. :P

Yeah, the Promise Ring totally rule!

Har, har, har... Yeah, bad memories... At least you didn't get the sandwich thrown at you. ::) The song is totally rad! 8)

Nitro (Youth Energy) - Offspring (1994)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFTv60V6WwQ

Good ol' Smash! This is the other record (aside from Dookie) that got me into Pop Punk. 8) Much better than that Rise and Fall crap... 8-P

Oh, it sounded like rapping to me  ;D

Rise and Fall is the greatest you heathen. (okay I might like their old stuff too now). Great song  :D Self esteem is my favourite song off that album.

Wait, you mean Authority Zero? Man, did you see the way they're all dressed? It looks way too early 00's to me!

Smash is the best and everyone knows it! >:( Yeah, man! Self Esteem is one of the best!

Underground - Yellowcard (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubKuH5kx4r8

Most people know all about Ocean Avenue but the 2000-2002 era Yellowcard before that album is much, much better! This is one of my favorite songs off this EP.

Damn that's a really good song.  :o It starts off like a morning song in a Pokémon game then it gives you school lyrics then it alternates between that. I wish I listened to that song when I was 10, it would have easily been one of my favourites  :D

I dunno what Pokemon morning music is but it is a really good song! Much better than Ocean Avenue, which everyone raves (or raved since it isn't 2003/2004 anymore) about. ::)

My Friends Over You - New Found Glory (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfcLcDBII78

I had a dream last night that I was a teenager again and a new movie had premiered at my local theater. It turns out... New Found Glory had made some sweet movie about Pop Punk featuring all of their wacky hi-jinx. Naturally, I thought "Oh! Rad! I gotta go see this!" but then it got real weird. My mother came up to me, while I was on the couch in our old house watching MTV, and said "Oh, Jordan! How wonderful! This new movie sounds lovely. I would love to take the whole family out to see it!" which is odd because my mother is very neutral towards Pop Punk. The day of the movie comes and me, my mother, brother, sister and father are all in the car off to see New Found Glory's new movie about Pop Punk and then it gets weirder. During the drive it was early afternoon but when we arrived at the theater it was late at night (I guess time didn't work properly in the 90s!?). We go inside and get our seats and the movie begins. It's pretty sweet 'cause the first thing that pops up is the video for My Friends Over You, which causes me to remark how I love the 90's and everything from it (except Grunge and sandwiches). I don't remember what else happens in the movie but apparently I really liked it because after the movie is over we go outside and I look back at the theater with tears in my eyes because of how good the movie was. I just stood there thinking to myself about how the 90's are going to live forever. What's next is some dumb old neighborhood from when I was a kid came up to my mother and started having a conversation about the movie but in the way stupid old people talk about things. "Oh, did you see when the man with the spiky hair did those jumps on stage?" I went into my car and a bunch of Home Grown is playing on the stereo. My dad is in the front seat, turns around and holds up 'Act Your Age' and says "This is my favorite CD" with a sh!t-eating grin on his face. My dad likes some Green Day songs and he took me to their concerts when I was 12/13 so this isn't too weird but it was just so random because we were watching a New Found Glory movie, not a Home Grown movie. Then, I say to myself "I can't wait for blink-182 to make a movie next" and wake up. I shook my wife to wake up and told her what happened and she just gave me a funny look and rolled her eyes because "you always have stupid dreams like this. Let me sleep for a few more hours." I just felt like sharing my dream. ;)

Are you keeping a dream diary here after we talked about lucid dreaming? Interesting. Don't let it consume you though  :o the 90s are over except in Portland.

No, I should start writing one! I could keep one here too if I have any more dreams about Pop Punk bands. ;) Portland wishes they had the 90s but the only thing they've got are hipsters and bad music. 8-P

On These Days - Gob (1998) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiMYUr8olYM

They are Canadian, you are Canadian... Like it and listen! >:(

I am sitting here thinking and my problem is figuring out: do Gob sound like Home Grown or do Home Grown sound like Gob? Does every Pop Punk band 1998-onward-but-pre-2003 just sound like Home Grown? I do not know but my bets are on yes. People can say Enema of the State invented that sound but it's not the first album to have that sound. Even Lit's A Place in the Sun came out before Enema. Anyway, this song rules. I used to skate to this a whole lot back in the day.

I'll Never Fall in Love - Home Grown (2002) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9xQILFyPfE

Now these are incredible songs with great hooks and good melodies but the problem here is that I got the sandwich thrown at me and that other girl broke up with me "yo cuz i wuznt cool enuff" (like Good Charlotte says) in 1995. These songs came out in the early 00's and I was not going through girl troubles then so I could not listen to these and cry about women.

;D who did you break up with in the early 2000s? These are some really sad. Sad!

I didn't. I was already dating my wife by time the early 00s came around. I know right? When he sings about Blair and... SHE'S BEEN WITH ALL THE JOCKS? I just don't know what to say. It's so sad... :\'(

It's not bad but I am not holding my breath.

That song could of been really good if they cut out the 21st Century Breakdown Tim Burton sound effect sh!t in the verses. Hope the third single (and rest of the album) is more like bootleg-Bad Religion like Bang Bang was.

Alright, dude, I've been listening to two records. Head Injury's self-titled from 2013 and Better Luck Next Time's A Lifetime of Learning from 2011. So far both are really good for their time and don't sound a day past 2002.

Head Injury - MFGFM (2013) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8t82xn8zOU

This band is kinda weird. Their early records from what I'm hearing so far are good but around 2014-2015 they had an image change and started sounding more like the mid 00's. I don't get it! ???

Better Luck Next Time - Gone But Not Forgotten (2011) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqfAUlUAIL4

This is the only album I've heard from these guys but I really like it! Classic sound. Both bands kind of remind me of Allister.

What does MFMGF stand for? :o Decent!

I really liked the BLNT song. They're better than a lot of early 2000s stuff, proving once again what the real superior era is  :-X

I'm not too sure but it's a really good song! Here's another from their 2014 EP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5m6ntYRzojc

I think they're just as good! :P Have you heard their 2013 album We'll Take it From Here? I'm listening to it right now and it's got a lot of NoFX influence. So good! Listen to this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsdP9LYDj38

Hmm you said they started sounding mid-2000s afterwards, this still sounds very 1999 to me :D

I should really give BLNT another try. I know I said I only like that kind of sound in a historical context, but BLNT is proving me wrong ;D

Oh yeah, it totally does! This is where they start to sound more mid 00's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k690efG09Y The song sounds like 1999 turning into 2005.

You totally should. I've been listening to a bunch of their songs and they're a consistently good band. Solid Pop Punk!

Wow look at those 2010s pop punk jumps! Your faves could neva. This does sound very 2005 Panic! At The Disco :D

Wow look at those 2010s pop punk jumps! Your faves could neva. This does sound very 2005 Panic! At The Disco :D

I know it does, it totally sucks because I'm actually really into their two early records. 2005 all over again. >:( I'm glad Better Luck Next Time have continued playing standard Pop Punk. They haven't let me down. I think they're all fairly close to my age (I think? They've been around since 2004 so... maybe late 80s born?), which is probably why. :P

Since emo seems to be all the rage on the board these days, I thought why not revive this thread ;D

I'm really enjoying The All-American Reject's When The World Comes Down album. It's very cheesy!

Not listening to it right now but this makes up a large part of my music collection. One of my favorites from the top of my head is Boys Like Girls' debut album.
