Power pop
Power pop is a popular musical genre that draws its inspiration from 1960s British and American rock music. It typically incorporates a combination of musical devices such as strong melodies, clear vocals and crisp vocal harmonies, economical arrangements and prominent guitar riffs. Instrumental solos are usually kept to a minimum, and blues elements are largely downplayed.
In the 1980s and 1990s, power pop continued as a commercially modest genre but by the mid-1990s through the 2000s, power pop was mainly in the underground.
While its cultural impact has waxed and waned over the decades, power pop is among rock's most enduring subgenres.〔Liner notes to ''The Roots of Powerpop!'' and the ''Poptopia!'' series of CDs.〕
==Characteristics==
Power pop has been described as mixture of hard rock and melodic pop music, thus Power pop tends to be more aggressive than pop rock. Author John M. Borack has stated in his book that the genre has often been applied to varied groups and artists with "blissful indifference" noting incorrect labeling of the genre to Britney Spears, Green Day, the Bay City Rollers and Def Leppard.
