In the spirit of building out this community, I’m creating a playlist of the songs released in a past few months that I found most compelling.

Note that not all of these are pop punk, but the genre is relatively nebulous anyway. Also note that while I have a very diverse musical palette, my strong preference is for music with great lyricism.

Let me know your thoughts! Tracklist:

  1. What Hurts the Most - Trophy Eyes
  2. Clean-Up Crew - Spanish Love Songs
  3. Outlook - The Front Bottoms
  4. Gans Media Retro Games - Hot Mulligan
  5. JOBBO - WSTR
  6. LIKED U BETTER - Jeff Rosenstock
  7. We Didn’t Start the Fire (Re-Imagined) - Fall Out Boy
  8. Fail You - Movements
  9. GODDAMNITALL - The Wonder Years
  10. Sean - Trophy Eyes
  11. NYE - Local Natives
  12. Cast Iron Skillet - Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit

    Thanks for the list! (Although Isbell is decidedly not pop punk despite being very good lol)

      Definitely not. But the lyricism on this one is among his all-time best, so I had to throw it in.

        You’re preaching to the choir haha that’s not even close to my favorite Isbell song, but it is great. He’s a rare talent who can make non-country fans like me enjoy country. Him and Sturgill Simpson.
