Why worry about liking hardcore and emo when you can just like ska and have everything? And Brand New is so not punk that I almost vomited when i read that. NoFX is where i draw the line for pop-punk. Once it gets into starting line and brand new and finch and allister i just can't stand it anymore. Anyway, Op Ivy is my all time favorite punk/ska, then there's Rancid, Buck-O-Nine, Authority Zero, Suicide Machines. And there's the ska...
