Wadlez
05.22.14 | Power Pop sounds like something I should avoid. |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | Check out The Raspberries |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.22.14 | Nooo Wadlez, try it. I think Sput needs a bit more pop. Especially since summer is coming. |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | Flamin Groovies - Shake Some Action |
Skull917
05.22.14 | There ain't no pop in my dungeon. |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | Todd Rundgren - Something/Anything. this album is a bit of everything, though |
PappyMason
05.22.14 | 'There ain't no pop in my dungeon'
hahahahaha... |
PappyMason
05.22.14 | Love a bit of Devo. |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.22.14 | Thanks North, I will be checking these out |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.22.14 | Devo is pop? I thought they were a form of punk. Never listened. |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | Also if you like Big Star you should check out Alex Chilton's solo effort: I Am The Cosmos - just listen to the song You and Your Sister and you're hooked. Such a shame that it didn't get released in his own time. Sorry to ramble, but I feel like pure pop get snubbed a lot around here. |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.22.14 | That's okay. You mean Chris Bell though? |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | Yeah :D |
PappyMason
05.22.14 | @JuustMeKB Yeh, I would personally class them as a post-punk band, but do listen to them. Highly rec. |
TwigTW
05.22.14 | Some great stuff here. "Rudderless" is my favorite from It's a Shame About Ray, but the whole album is great. I forgot how good the Hoodoo Gurus are . . . Need to check out some of the others. |
ExcentrifugalForz
05.22.14 | anything by 9 should be more popular on this site |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.22.14 | I'm actually consistently surprised by the popularity of some artists vs others on sput. Hated or loved. |
Dunwich

05.22.14 | No. I don't mind.
Glad to see some of these in there. Great list. I'll be checking some out |
Dunwich
05.22.14 | Always nice to see another power pop fan. We could be good friends. |
NorthernSkylark
05.22.14 | I can tell that you are gonna be friends |
Riviere
05.22.14 | Spiderbait - Grand Slam
Specifically this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGrTVwHC8UM

AmericanFlagAsh
05.23.14 | Yes! Friends Dunwich!
So I just listened to Hearts of Oak again. I think I'd substitute "Bridges, Squares" for the title track |
Ryus
05.23.14 | 5 rules nice |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.23.14 | That was great Riviere
Putting that on my listen to list |
Dunwich
05.23.14 | "Yes! Friends Dunwich!"
Well I'll be damned. BFs forever. And that skylark character knows his power pop too. Shake Some Action, the finest album that the early Beatles forgot to make. |
NorthernSkylark
09.28.14 | i hereby nominate i'm in love with a girl for best songs ever (under 2 min)
also, how weird of an album is Third? it's all over the place man |
AmericanFlagAsh
09.28.14 | 3 has grown off me a little. But it's still an excellent album.
7 has grown on me a little. |
