21 of Our Favorite Pop-Punk Songs From This Year, Including Halsey, Willow, and Olivia Rodrigo

-

Olivia Rodrigo might have said it best when she conjured up one the most angsty lyrics of 2021: "I'm so sick of 17. Where's my f*cking teenage dream?" Even 20 years after the height of the punk-rock era, her song "Brutal" embraces the prevailing "I hate this town - you wouldn't understand" sentiment that rings through some of the best pop-punk songs of all time, reminding us that skater culture, DIY nose piercings, and crunchy guitar riffs didn't fade away in 2003.

The days of pop-punk past never truly dissolved, with bands like Blink-182, Green Day, The Offspring, Sum 41, and Newfound Glory still going strong, but 2021 has ushered in a whole new crew of pop-punk icons. From established rockers like Willow Smith and Halsey to rising artists like Meet Me at the Altar and Action/Adventure, there's no shortage of new punk songs to blast at full volume when you're in the mood to sulk or just need an excuse to rock out.

So pump up the volume and check out some of our favorite pop-punk and punk-rock songs from 2021 ahead.

Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15.

Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
