I was really into punk music when I was a kid since the late 80s, then the big boom happened in the mid-late 90s, which eventually yielded to pop punk and emo music from the early 2000s.

I still listen to it and I’ve even seen a resurgence coming as it coinciding with the 20 year nostalgia cycle, which is great in my opinion. But being a punk fan before it achieved mainstream success and after it went into decline by 2010s made me feel exactly as this post describes.

Punk was big in the late 70s - mid 80s, though? I thought the big boom was early 80s. It was buried under things like nu-metal and emo in the late 90s (I’m fuzzy on this because of reasons).

    Green day, offspring, and sum41 are all very solidly in the pop/punk genre

    Yes they are. I count it as punk.

  correct, should’ve clarified, I was big into what was at the time, old-school punk. As I was not alive in the late 70s.
  
  I welcomed the punk-rock wave of the 90s with open arms.
