Pop Punk Albums of the DECADE (2010-2019) 

what are ur favorite releases of the decade?

"The cool thing to do was to hate on your ex even if they were a good person and be as sad as possible while listening to Clairvoyant" Attacked.

Fun fact: I watched this video having no idea who microwave was, 24 hours later I'm shooting one of their concerts

2015 on general was such a good year for pop punk, Neck Deep, The Wonder Years, The Story So Far, State Champs, Knuckle Puck, and As It Is all released such good albums

2010: A Day To Remember - What Separates Me From You 2011: The Front Bottoms - The Front Bottoms 2012: Modern Baseball - Sports 2013: Turnover - Magnolia 2014: Moose Blood - I'll Keep You In Mind, From Time To Time 2015: Neck Deep - Life's Not Out To Get You 2016: Real Friends - The Home Inside My Head 2017: Movements - Feel Something 2018: Basement - Beside Myself 2019: Pup - Morbid Stuff

My favorite albums of the decade: - Shed and Floral Green by Title Fight - Joyce Manor self-titled - Feel Something by Movements - Wildlife by La Dispute - every single album by TSSF - LNOTGY by Neck Deep - Collide With The Sky by Pierce The Veil - Sempiternal by BMTH - tumblr's favorite album by Citizen

Lifes not out to get you killed all the sad bois

Knuckle Puck - Copacetic Real Friends - Put Yourself Back Together Belmont - Belmont are some great albums of this decade that come to mind

Dude that section on The Wonder Years hit me hard haha! My senior yearbook quote was, "I'm not sad anymore, I'm just tired of this place."

“It’s not about forcing the happiness; it’s about not letting the sadness win.” I actually needed to hear that, right now in this moment, as a young adult. I personally believe that music can be relevant at different stages - going in and out of importance at different phases of life. A song that is more than a decade old can hit such a deep chord in one’s soul while a more “mature” song might make one feel “meh.” That’s just my opinion, though.

couldn’t agree more with the PUP mention, god they’re great

The greatest generation- the wonder years was an epic album.

Life’s not out to get you is one of my favorite album’s of all time

Thank you for including microwave in this video, one of my favorite albums of all time. Glad I got to see them twice and seein them again next year

Crucial Dudes - 61 Penn The Story So Far - everything Misser - Everyday I Tell Myself I’m Going To Be A Better Person Transit - Keep This To Yourself Man Overboard - Man Overboard Fireworks - All I have To Offer Is My Own Confusion With the Punches - Seams and Stitches Coldfront - Float Around Light Years - I Wont Hold This Against You Rust Belt Lights - Religion And My Ex Wstr - Red, Green, or In between

I JUST WANT TO SELL OUT MY FUNERAL IS A TOP 10 SONG OF ALL TIME. RECAPPING AND REUSING PARTS OF THE SONGS HURTS ME WITH EACH SONGS FEELINGS HITTING AFTER ONE ANOTHER. ABSOLUTELY SMASHING END TO MAKE ME CRY EVERYTIME.

you spelled sadness wrong in ur senior quote

This video is everything lol so many great bands/albums. The chills keep coming

but where's Jeff Rosenstock's Worry. :(?

"Common Courtesy" and "What Separates Me From You"--A Day to Remember "What You Don't See" and "Split EP"--The Story So Far (680 South is by far my favorite song by them) "Wishful Thinking" and "Life's Not Out to Get You"--Story So Far "Pardon My French" and "Get Lost, Find Yourself"--Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! "Around the World and Back"--State Champs "Welcome to the Neighborhood"--Boston Manor "Don't Panic: It's Longer Now!"--All Time Low "Four Year Strong" and "Enemy of the World"--Four Year Strong

love watching your vids and always finding some more music to try out. thanks nate!

I mean I’ll just start this comment by saying Morbid Stuff is easily one of the best albums ever. It is perfect. Same with Much Love and Proper Dose

This was such an awesome and nostalgic video. Pop punk really shaped this decade for me and I definitely agree with most of your top albums. Thanks Nate!

God I'm so glad PUP was on here. I've been a very long time listener of PUP and to see morbid stuff on this list makes me genuinely happy. The story of how PUP really got their start is super sick and literally the core of what makes a great fucking band. Not only a pop punk band, but an all around amazing rock band. They pull off like 3 genres an album flawlessly yet always keep true to themselves and the DIY punky vibes. Literally one of the best bands of our time

Belmont’s self titles album was a masterpiece

Only half way through the video and I just wanted to say that this is an amazing video opening my eyes to a ton of good things I missed along the way. Thank you for doing this and much love from Singapore

this list is sick. I would’ve slipped Danger Days by MCR bc that came out in 2010, as well as a few albums by Joyce manor, but overall the bands you listed represent the evolution of pop punk for the decade.

thanks so much for this video, it helped introduce me to a lot of awesome bands. one of your other videos got me into modern baseball as well

M8... This video really got me feeling that bittersweet nostalgic feeling. Like... we're all old(er) now. The age where in 2010-2015ish a lot of us were probably going through high school and thought we'd start to have shit figured out. Maybe we had friends we swore we'd never lose while blasting these songs in the car that are slipping away or already have. People are in or beyond college, or in jobs working the grind. Its crazy how different life is and how much all these bands and more have impacted us. Its scary. I miss the first half of the decade yet i'm excited to see what tomorrow holds. It's just a weird feeling. Thanks for the video and sorry to ramble... Coming up with just one record for each year is too hard so here are some of my favorites: ADTR - What Separates You From Me and Common Courtesy, Neighborhoods & Dogs Eating Dogs from Blink before Tom left again, TSSF's EP While You Were Sleeping (feel like this one needs more love), Colourmeinkindness by Basement, No Closer To Heaven by The Wonder Years, Youth by Citizen, Wildlife by La Dispute... I adore every song by each of these artists and so many more whether or not their messages line up with my life anymore I still value their impact so much. Lastly a huge shoutout to every track ever released by Balance & Composure, especially their album Separation. That record got me through some hard times and I still listen to it religiously. Went to their final show in May this year and it really hit hard. These guys deserved so much more so go check em out if you've never heard of them... sorry for the long post haha.

Some of my favorite releases (including EPs and other genres of that's okay) of this decade include: - The Great Depression by As It Is - Under Soil and Dirt by TSSF - Black Diamonds EP by Issues - ATWAB by State Champs - Life's Not Out To Get You by Neck Deep - Two-Faced Charade by Famous Last Words - Misadventures by Pierce the Veil - With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear by Sleeping with Sirens

Liked the fact that you didn't rank the albums but just gave a solid explanation. Great video man from a new viewer :)

Hey Nate! Love your videos! I found you late this year and I trust your judgement even if I disagree or not. (Most of the time I agree.lol) anyways I wish that you could compile this into a Spotify playlist so that I could follow it. Idk if you already have done that before. Either way continue the great work!

Dude, honestly I don't think anyone else could have similar tastes in albums like we do. Misadventures?! I still can't stop jammin 7 years later! And pup?! Morbid stuff for me is album of the year by far. And growing up I've always loved the Wonder years. Good stuff dude I love all of it.

Dude I had no clue pup came out with new stuff. I am so excited.

Ugh that was awesome! My heart is happy. And holy nostalgia. What a decade! MoBo, TSSF, TWY for life

Much Love album, sending you Much Love for recommending that, its mad good.

This video made me feel really nostalgic for some reason. Watching this instead of doing overdue assignments. Not pop punk but I would've put Peripheral Vision by Turnover and Everyone Everywhere (2012) in there! Great video mate :)

I remember Yer Killin Me got a lot of traction Cus the band emailed Fantano then he put the track on his best tracks of the weeks list.

God this makes me miss my pop punk years, I didn’t get into pop punk until I was 21 after a failed relationship. It was State Champs that did it for me, The Finer Things came out at the same time that the relationship happened and it also helped that SC is from my home town. That album hit hard at the time, then I heard Wishful Thinking from Neck Deep and I was hooked on Pop Punk for the next 2 or 3 years. It was a truly beautiful time, including being that I’m at a Black Metal guy at heart. Nowadays, Im 27 and back to mainly jamming Black Metal daily but Pop Punk will always have a special place in my heart and while those times were hard on me this music makes me long for those times. It was just an all around wild time and I absolutely miss it.

Nate, this is the best video you ever made! Keep it up. 😃

Movements - Feel Something so damn good, its feels familiar and so special and different at the same time. Every song is a masterpiece.

Copacetic and Much Love are my two favorites for sure

Crazy you go to Pahrump! I’m from that shitty town, crazy to hear you mention it.

The Menzingers - On The Impossible Past The Menzingers - After The Party PUP - PUP Crusades - The Sun Is Down And The Night Is Riding In The Creeps - Eulogies Broadway Calls - Comfort/Distraction The Copyrights - North Sentinel Island Modern Baseball - You're Gonna Miss It All Joyce Manor - Never Hungover Again The Lillingtons - Stella Sapiente (I think it counts, but less pop punk than they've ever been) Off With Their Heads - In Desolation Unfun - Sick Outside View As you can see I'm mostly into the more "traditional" stuff that was thriving in the 2000s and it's getting more difficult to find.

My fav albums of the decade: Feel Something - Movements Fail You Again - Can't Swim Undersoil And Dirt - Story So Far What You Don't See - The Story So Far Wishful Thinking - Neck Deep Life's Not Out To Get You - Neck Deep Youth - Citizen Belmont Self titled Mend, Move On - Trophy Eyes While I stay secluded (EP) - Knuckle Puck Copacetic - Knuckle Puck Shapeshifter - Knuckle Puck The Greatest Generation - The Wonder Years No Closer To Heaven - The Wonder Years Talon of the Hawk - The Front Bottoms Back on Top - The Front Bottoms Nothing I Write You Can Change What You've Been Through - Trash Boat Crown Shyness - Trash Boat I'll Keep You In Mind, From Time To Time - Moose Blood Blush - Moose Blood You're Gonna Miss It All - Modern Baseball Holy Ghost - Modern Baseball The Finer Things - State Champs Around The World and Back - State Champs Joyce Manor - Self Titled Cody - Joyce Manor Heart Attack - Man Overboard Man Overboard - Self Titled Put Yourself Back Together (EP) - Real Friends Maybe This Place Is The Same And We're Just Changing - Real Friends Always Lose - The Gospel Youth Colour Blind - Seaway Never, Happy Ever After - As It Is Future Fire - Stickup Kid Red Lights - Milestones Adornment - Grayscale Overexposed - Sleep On It Be Nothing - Boston Manor This Couch Is Long & Full of Friendship - Tiny Moving Parts Swell - Tiny Moving Parts I Couldn't Be Weaker - Rarity Old Bones - Broadside Everything Is Temporary - Between You And Me Spin - Tigers Jaw Great Heights And Nosedives - ROAM A Nervous Smile - Defeat The Low Disenchanted - Handguns Distant Like You Asked - Like Pacific Goner - Heavy Things The Lonely End - Everyone Leaves Unity - Carousel Kings

I'm so happy to see Pup on so many "best of..." lists lately. They really deserve to get big with how much work they put in, how much fun they have with fans and the variety in their music.

Okay, but fucking THANK YOU for giving some props to that Such Gold album. I straight up feel like the only person who remembers that dang album sometimes. So good.

nate just went ahead and introduced me to some of my new favorite music. i-

Love this personalized list Nate! On the impossible past by the Menzingers would've been at the top of mine though

First off, thank you for your videos. Your "Why Pop Punk Sucks" video was great, emotional and made me proud of my musical preferences. Your list was top notch and even though I'm not a much into bands like Modern Baseball, I was very pleased to see that Pup's Morbid Stuff made it into your list. I feel Trophy Eyes' "Everything Goes Away" ep should have made the list but it definitely makes mine. Gnarwolves are another great band that should be checked out. Their CRU ep is epic and the single "smoking kills" is amazing to say the least. Last but not least : the Montreal band PREVENGE (rip) and their lp " Eye Contact" is a work of art. It's everything you'd want from a band. It's a free download on bandcamp, be sure to check it out! Shout out to Belmont, Knuckle Puck and Cold Front. These bands kill it and are on constant repeat. Keep up the amazing content and I'll keep watching!!

My top 5 of the decade : The Wonder years - The Upsides Sports - Modern Baseball The Menzingers - On The Impossible Past (is this pop-punk?) The Story So Far - Proper Dose Fireworks - Gospel btw thanks for introducing me to Remo Drive, they seem like an incredible band !

Damn this guy legit sounds like a philosopher, seriously nice reflections man

Here's my personal list, I'm only counting one band per year cuz the Wonder Years would be in every single year lol 2010: The Menzingers - Chamberlain Waits 2011: The Wonder Years - Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm Nothing 2012: Japandroids - Celebration Rock 2013: The Story So Far - What You Don't See 2014: Real Friends - Maybe This Place is The Same And We're Just Changing 2015: Beach Slang - The Things We Do to Find People Who Feel Like Us 2016: Microwave - Much Love 2017: Creeper - Eternity, In Your Arms 2018: Jeff Rosenstock - Post 2019: Pup - Morbid Stuff

The nostalgia as soon as I saw that Such Gold: Misadventures album hit me like a fricking waaave.

Finer things - State Champs. Absolute banger

Damn the list could go on. There's just so many great records within that timeline. ❤️

when proper dose came out i was at a very low point in my life and listened to that album repeatedly every day because of how much it spoke to me. it remains my favorite pop punk album ever.

Have a good day mate, you are lit 🔥🔥

This list is great I agree with all of the albums especially PUP and Remo Drive

Nice video, I’d add Gospel by Fireworks and Listen & Forgive by Transit as underrated pop punk classics along with Misadventures

Very good list, love that microwave is on there. Never heard such gold though so ima go check them out now🖐

This was tight

Minority 905 is a band I've listened to for the past year or so and can't get enough. Great balance of pop and punk, maybe leaning more towards Pop but a 00's punks feel

I gotta check these albums man, seeing this video reminded me how much of a "generic" pop punk fan I am 😆

dude, life's not out to get you has been one of my top favorite albums since i heard it. it's gotten me through a lot, tbh. edit: holy shit, just realized this video was uploaded on my birthday. pretty epic.

100% agree about PUP! Every time I listen to them I’m blown away, even if I’ve listened to the album 500 times.. they just know what they’re doing

Sad to think this might have been the last decade we hear of pop punk. I doubt we’ll ever hear from it again in the future like we did these past 10 years

I didn't realize the band Neck Deep existed until I saw them open for Blink last year. They blew my god damn mind! I bought two of their albums and a Tshirt on the spot.

"Short sighted and naive" I see what you did there 😂

Fave Albums of the Decade 👇🏻 Me vs Hero - Days That Shape Our Lives Between You & Me - Everything is Temporary The Story So Far - Under Soil & Dirt Boston Manor - Be Nothing. Grayscale - Adornment Knuckle Puck - Copacetic Lower Than Atlantis - World Record Neck Deep - Life’s Not Out To Get You State Champs - The Finer Things Trash Boat - Crown Shyness

underrated releases of the early 2010s... With The Punches - Seams & Stitches Forever Came Calling - Contender Fireworks - Gospel

Fireworks, Broadway Calls, I am the Avalanche, Living With Lions cmoon

don't panic and future hearts by all time low and the great depression by as it is are probably my faves

I went to see The Dangerous Summer live in atlanta and microwave came on right before them. First time I’d ever heard them and they sound EXACTLY like the do on the album live, crowd was fucking nuts since it was a hometown show. A solid half the crowd left after they finished and didn’t even stick around to see The Dangerous Summer, who were kinda trash that night.

Copacetic for me, is easely the one thats stands out from everything. Lots of smashing album the last ten years, but copacetic is so complete. The paceing of the album is perfect, lyrics work is so well done, the whole album through, and the whole album as a peace, that revolves around the album title, is really well done. Plus Untitled as the finish, to sum up the whole album and just drift out is a masterpiece to me. Could be having an our long monologue about the composition of that album. Smash a lot of TSSF, as well. Just so good every time. State Champs Around the world and Back", and of course Neck Deep. "Life is not out to get you", is some of the very best, but to me, what really drags it home is"Rain in July/History of bad decisions". "What did you expect", is such a simpel but nothing more than perfect lyric work, that could not be done better.

yes to all of these. my top 5 would be: morbid stuff - pup, under soil and dirt - tssf, life's not out to get you - neck deep, you're gonna miss it all - mobo, never hungover again - joyce manor

Literally the only reason I quit listening to pop punk was I realized it activated an emotional side of me which not only was incredibly unattractive for my self image as a man but it actually DID make me more "emotionalish" about stuff. EDIT: I realize none of this makes sense lmao.

Under the soil and dirt is a fucking classic!! Love this album with my soul

I got into bands like sum 41, new found glory, simple plan, good charlotte, yellowcard, fall out boy, blink 182, and green day in the early 2000's. I also got into bands like man overboard, the wonder years, the story so far, state champs, major league, i call fives, within the punches, a loss of words, we are the in crowd, real friends, knuckle puck, tonight alive, neck deep, as it is, broadside, seway, roam, boys of fall, living with lions, handguns, yours truly, bearing, with confidence, sleep on it, and stand atlantic.

Here are some of my favourites, not in any order: - What Separates Me From You & Common Courtesy (A Day To Remember) - Pardon My French & Get Lost, Find Yourself (Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!) - Chemical Miracle (Trophy Eyes) - Skinny Dipping (Stand Atlantic) - Proper Dose (The Story So Far)

“no closer to heaven” should of been on this list. i watched an acoustic session of “cigarettes and saints” and cried bc the crowd was singing over dan and he was getting so emotional and started crying. when everyone screened “you can’t have my friends. you can’t have my brothers” it was like everyone in the room was screaming into the world and it was fuckin beautiful. no live version of. song has ever made me feel that way

how is real talk not on here? man overboard will always be number 1 in making this shit popular again and the defend pop punk movement alone is a staple of the decade.

I'll just say it: "I just want to sell out my funeral" should have been the last TWY song. It was the perfect closure.

10:43 you rlly did not have to call me out like this

That’s the thing about pop punk, I never look at these records as pop punk records I just look at them as good pieces of music. But it’s one of those genres that has so much stale boring music that you really have to pick out the ones who truly stand out. It became so watered down from 2010 forward with too many bands creating the same exact style of music but in a way that was good for the genre because it meant that if you were one of the good ones you were a REALLY good one at that.

Free throw I feel is an extremely important and underrate band in modern pop punk

under soil and dirt is the #1 album on this list. Really pushed the pop-punk genre to its peak.
