These tracks kick so much arse.

ETA: but I doubt it.

If you have influence with Chicken and his caporegimes please ask them to unanchor my Cowpunk! thread. I cant ask on the Help Board as that would let the kitten out of the burlap as Col Potter used to say.
Was Cowpunk! -- on a music board -- really too vague? I guess they were afraid somebody might think it was about a calf juvenile delinquent.

BTW, if this moved on toward a Jangle-pop thread, it would be a good thing.

I consider it all power pop
I just listed the first ones that occurred to me
I would like to hear some more recent stuff if anybody has some examples

Gotcha. Allmusic is a great resource for the genres and subs.

When I think of Power Pop, I usually do think back to the 70's. But then, what better 80's example than anything by XTC??

I like that record but I'm not sure I would call it power pop.
I post a lot of older stuff here but I try to avoid living completely in the past -- I recently heard a nice track from a few months ago, "Millionaires Are Getting Young" by an Australian band called Mink Jaguar. Power pop fans should check it out.
Unfortunately it's not on YouTube, so no link...

the new pornographers are the epitome of power pop.

While the NPs are clearly influenced by P-P, I would hardly call them the "epitome" of the form

I may have oversold that, but they are the first band I think of when someone says power pop.
