Pop-Punk on the Rise

Pop punk has been a very popular music genre, but this year in 2015, it has become one of the most listened to. Many bands including State Champs, Man Overboard, Blink 182, and more, have been making a pop-punk statement. Why is this genre so popular? Well being a fan of pop-punk, I have an answer; Pop-Punk is easy, relatable, music. Teenagers connect to the songs about love, hating where they're from, and who they are. Teenagers seek for songs they can scream at their parents when they get mad, just to get a message across. For example, Perfect- Simple Plan was every kids anthem in 2010. It's a song about not being the kid your parent wanted and just wanting to be themselves. Pop-punk is for teenagers, songs they can relate to, these songs sing about everyday problems with being a teen.
