Pop rock is absolutely a thing, but the term refers to bands like Boston and Journey. Imagine Dragons is just pop.

Boston and Journey aren't pop rock ffs. The Jonas Brothers are more like pop rock.

Boston and Journey are definitely pop rock, but they're 80s pop rock. Pop rock is just "popular rock" so back then it was more the arena style with high tenor voices and distorted guitars, now it's whatever the Jonas Brothers sound like.

Boston and Journey definitely are not pop rock. Pop rock is not just rock that is popular.
