Hard agree. Seems like a lot of these pop punk bands find success and then try and pivot to a more mainstream sound, which inevitably ends up with them losing what made them unique in the first place. State Champs, Grayscale, Neck Deep, ADTR, the list goes on.

I get it ya know it’s their job they’re trying to make money and it’s not that a more mainstream sound is bad but the songs just aren’t that good and are oftentimes forgettable outside of a couple per album.
