Gonna start an uprising in this thread but punk pop is literally the worst genre of music.

Yeah but you're someone who thinks that a guy dressed as a frog with a recorder up his nose is funny. So I can't take your opinion seriously.

It’s not the best but you’ve clearly not listened to much music in your time.

[Pr0paneNightm4re]

What does everyone reckon the crowd for Clairo will be like? Can’t seem to imagine which kinda group of people would go to see her.

I dunno, 90s pop punk had some great bands. Rancid's music still holds up, and then Green Day, The Offspring and NOFX have done plenty of bangers in their career.

But yeah the modern incarnation of it is awful.

Yeah, don’t forget Bad Religion and Social Distortion.

Some great stuff from Anti Flag too, especially live.

Just another reason why they wouldn’t do it again 

I also don't think they'll do the secret set this year. I was just disputing the fact that you said they're way too big to do it, which is clearly false.

Rancid aren’t really a pop punk band though are they. 

Give some time to The Wonder Year’s album ‘The Greatest Generation’. They completed pop punk with that album.

That's half the problem with punk, anything you don't like get's labelled as pop-punk/sell out/not real punk. Rancid are a band I would chuck together with Green Day (Billie Joe use to be in Rancid for a short while), Good Charlotte, Offspring etc who are more identifiable as pop-punk so imo it works even if I'd consider them more "street-punk" myself. I'm now off to see the pop(ular)-punk band Frank Carter now.

I’ll have you know that my profile pic is true art. Come see me play nose recorder live. Then you’ll know what true music is.

This one really hurts (and is wrong)

Typical butthurt radiohead fan. Think they know everything about music.

To be honest nor are Green Day, they are just a rock band with a lot of pop rock material.

Hoping they add a new stage that just shows Liverpool beating Barca on repeat for the full weekend.

Reading sized gap in Blink-182's tour? https://www.blink182.com/ pretty damn unlikely but you never know I guess

Looks like the reds have got efests on strings by the response to my comment. Personally, love that we're hated and long may it continue but regardless what a game of footie. Music and football, the 2 best things in this world to bring people together.

Rancid modelled their sound on classic 70s British punk, but because they were a 90s California band they got labelled as pop punk.

People who like epic memes. See also: fans of Death Grips, Grimes and The Chats.

Is Travis still their drummer on tour? I can't see a boat getting to and from America that quick unless it's gotten over his fear of crashing in planes.

Personally I'd prefer The Transplants if Travis makes the effort to come over to Europe and I can only see that happening if they are the support to Blink on tour or if they have some big festivals lines up. I'm still pissed off they pulled out Reading all those years ago, I fucking loved that album at the time.

Didn't know that was a thing to be honest. Better not tell him about the Titanic or he'll never play in Europe again ? Their tour with Lil Wayne definitely is odd though so a secret set at 2019 Reading looks pretty normal in comparison.
