Your votes have decided: Allister's "Somewhere on Fullerton" is the greatest pop-punk song ever. Congrats to @HumbugRog and the band on their Cinderella run! #poppunk #poppunkmaymadness

Im glad that all the people who were telling us to "stick to music" for the last 10 years are silent right now. Maybe they've even learned that they were wrong.

All art is political, and "politics" is life or death stuff that honestly matters more than our album of the year.

The music industry is calling for a "Blackout Tuesday" in response to the death of George Floyd https://t.co/sgNEE85idh

[Pitchfork @pitchfork]

The killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor are painful reminders of the systemic racism in our country

After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence? ‘When the looting starts the shooting starts’??? We will vote you out in November. @realdonaldtrump

A summation of early 2000s pop-punk, Allister's "Somewhere on Fullerton" earned the Pop-Punk May Madness title with unwavering fan loyalty. #poppunk #poppunkmaymadness https://t.co/XMdbLIgEqm

It's been four years since @thehotelyear and @puptheband dropped these records on the same day.

The sophomore full-length from @MtJoyBand is dropping in June, and the songs released from the record so far embrace melancholy in a special way. https://t.co/cg3FGd8iSL

Notes on a Conditional Form reminds us of how @the1975 have reacted to the freedom that has allowed music to exist beyond genre or definition in this era. https://t.co/HGjC6VKVnG

[Tim Allister @HumbugRog]

Here’s a version we can only hope might win “easy listening.”

The debut record from @yelyahwilliams has been out for a few weeks, and shows a few new sides for the @paramore lead singer. What are you favorite songs from Petals for Armor?

[Mind Equals Blown @mindequalsblown]

Are you listening to the new b-sides from @Sum41?

[Mind Equals Blown @mindequalsblown]

The current backlash against @LanaDelRey isn't the first time her social stances and public persona have sparked controversy. @HeimBrouwer broke down what @annkpowers had to say about Lana back in the fall. https://t.co/nM0KNS6NhJ

[Mind Equals Blown @mindequalsblown]

"Somewhere on Fullerton" summarizes what pop-punk was all about in 2002, so it's no surprise to see how @HumbugRog and Allister earned their Pop-Punk May Madness championship this month. https://t.co/XMdbLIyfhU

The latest record from @JasonIsbell trusts its loyal fan base to interpret each of his stories and bring their questions to the table. https://t.co/qBbJSDGwGL
