Well, all due respect to Green Day, but I don't consider them punk, so maybe that's why I didn't expect much. Is there such a thing as pop-punk?

Edit: do they really call themselves a punk band?

Yeah pop punk was huge in the aughts. Green Day started with more of an edge but they are certainly pop punk now.
