Pop Punk! (The Ergs!, The Steinways, House Boat, The Hextalls etc.)

Anyone into this kind of music at all? Humorous pop punk music singing about girlfriends and video games. Great stuff.

Some of my favorite albums:

The Ergs! - DorkRockCorkRod, Upstairs/Downstairs
The Steinways - Gorilla Marketing, Missed the Boat
The Hextalls - Get Smashed
House Boat- The Delaware Octopus

This song has been my ringtone for a while, also:

Hell fucking yeah into all thems.

pop punk is the shit

w3rd

Haven't heard of any of those. Will have to check them out. I really enjoyed Broadway Calls recent album, and enjoy most pop punk as long as it doesn't turn super emo or immature.

Haha, it is kind of a good immature sometimes. Song titles like (Nobody Wants To) Make Out (With Me Because I Wear Sweatpants) I find hilarious

There is a certain level of immaturity that comes with the genre to be sure, and it can actually be pretty refreshing to see a band just kicking back and having fun and not caring what people think. I just don't want my songs filled with toilet humor.

this thread rules so hard....

ya it pretty much kicks ass. But i thinking i like the pop punk you guys hate

This thread needs more Lillingtons, Teenage Bottlerocket, Methadones, Mr. T Experience, etc. And Sicko. A lot more mention of Sicko.

Fucking yes on the Lillingtons so much love for that band.

I don't get The Ergs. At all. I think that I might be alone in this because everyone else* on the internet thinks they're awesome.







* Yes, really. Everyone else on the internet.

I think I don't like them either

Fuck yes, especially love the copyrights

Plus one for Sicko!

more bands in the Ergs/Sicko style

Zoinks!
Sinkhole

Like i had said, the Hextalls and House Boat. House Boat is Mikey Erg! and Grath from the Steinways. Also Barrakuda McMurder is Grath's other side project thing.

i know them already. any others?

they were on the last record they put out, but theyve since left the band.
though they got new members and have a new record coming out next week.

Tattle Tales rule so h ard, been into them for a while. Such poppy shit that I'd usually hate but I love it so much.
