Have you listened to Third yet?

Cheap Trick is literally the best act to come out of the Rock Era (1962-2005)

Salvation Army
The Records
Exploding Hearts
The Colors
The Shivvers
Bram Tchaikovsky
Sonic Avenues

Those are some of my favs and I'd recommend any of them.

I love Cheap Trick, but isnt that a little hyperbolic?

Of these I've listened to The Records, Bran Tchaikovsky, and The Exploding Hearts--rest in peace :(

You ever listen to The Kind or Dwight Twilley?

Hollerado is probably my favourite power pop band, really good.

Bah, I used to make power pop threads all the time asking for revs and just got ignored

Teenage Fanclub and The Replacements are 2 of my fav bands ever. Also love Jellyfish and the various side albums/ solo projects like the grays, Jason falkner, roger etc

Mandatory mention to XTC for being a massive influence on them. And The Format/ fun. (well, Aim & Ignite. Less said about Some Nights the better)

Love that Exploding Hearts album, also really love The Posies (Frosting on the Beater esp) and The New Pornographers. And yea, Weezer's good stuff ofc

I always thought Big Star were just okay and feel guilty for not liking them more. Some names here I don't recognise so I'm gonna have to binge tomorrow. Good thread ladz, sorry for the meandering post

Fountains of Wayne's debut album is steller

Jason Falkner, the guitarist in Jellyfish, is ridiculously talented. His debut solo album should be essential Power Pop.

He also had a band called the Grays and their song "Friend of Mine" is so good ;_;

bumping this so i hope it survives when I get out of work. I'm very interested in getting into more power pop bc I love Weezer, but sometimes I love the acclaimed albums (raspberries, matthew sweet, replacements) and other times theyre pretty bland with a couple amazing songs (cheap trick, fountains of wayne, big star, teenage fanclub, jellyfish). where do i go from here?

I am convinced Another Girl, Another Planet is the best power pop track of all time. I'd love to be proven otherwise.

I saw Teenage Fanclub live last week, they still got it
