Punk rock

Bowling for Soup is a Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of Green Day, Weezer, Quiet Riot, Ramones and Mötley Crüe. Those roots explain a lot about how Bowling for Soup arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Simple Plan, American Hi-Fi, Sugarcult, Sum 41 and Good Charlotte, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Cartel, Son of Dork, The All-American Rejects, Quietdrive and Wheatus, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 55 connections around Bowling for Soup, reaching back through Green Day and forward to Cartel.
