I love this genre because itās not light, often really sad, but itās also relentlessly and defiantly positive. Itās what I need for healing in my darkest moments. Something not pretending to be something Iām not, something thatās acknowledging the pain and sadness while actively defying that.

It started with Green Day and then I fell down the biggest rabbit hole of my life, I had my first few music tastes but now Iām completely trapped in pop-punk and I donāt want to leave. Iām 17 and the songs speak to me in a confusingly relatable way and the songs have comforted me in my hard times. Being a drummer and musician has given me a different perspective too, just being able to see how talented people are in this genre is astonishing. I will continue to force people to listen to pop-punk until the day I die.

American Idiot will always be my favorite album. When I first heard that album at 14, it changed my life and outlook on life. Before that, I had never had an album speak to me so much. It felt like it was written for me. Many of the feelings and struggles of the songs in American Idiot can honestly be applied to so much. If Iām feeling down, I sit down for a few hours and listen to the whole album. Homecoming as the final track sometimes gets me in tears. Got me through a lot.

I get days where I say, while I'm scrolling through albums, "I don't feel like Dark side of the moon or Nevermind or Ok Computer", but when I don't know what to listen or what would hit the spot I always end up on pop-punk. It is the kind of music that I can literally listen to anytime, anywhere and it always boosts my energy. Those albums may not be the artistic masterpieces, but their entertainment value is off the charts. That's why when we discuss our favorite albums I always have the separate lists for these albums that don't fit amongst the likes of "In the court of the crimson king", "Loveless", "The velvet underground & Nico" etc. and most of them are pop-punk albums.

In defense of Pretty Fly, the misogyny was the point. A parody of someone embracing the surface level characteristics of another culture.
