For those who don't know what power punk music is, the style can be likened to the sounds of Saves the Day and Taking Back Sunday.
Mitchell Levine (sophomore-business administration), a friend of the band members of Punchline, organized the Pollock Rec Room concert.
Levine said the band is gaining popularity and that students will enjoy the show even if they aren't familiar with the songs.
"Punchline is probably the best live band I've ever seen," he said.
Levine said a lot of bands put on boring shows with no energy, but he said this isn't the case with Punchline, who recently played with Fall Out Boy at Club Laga in Pittsburgh.
"The amount of energy they have while they're playing makes them really exciting to watch," he said.
Stephen Kreider, president of Pollock/Nittany Residence Association, said his organization will be funding the concert so students can go for free.
"We raise money so that we can put on free concerts like this one," Kreider said. "We like to give the campus a voice so students can actually have a say in what's going on here."
John Fitchwell (senior-marketing and international business) said a lot of students will like the concert. He is familiar with Punchline's music and says they're not "hard-core" punk.
"They're pretty good, it's pretty pop punk -- mainstream, they sound kind of like A New Found Glory," Fitchwell said.
The concert will begin at 7 p.m.
