* CreatorBacklash: "Don't Stop" is this for the group, though this might be less because of the song itself and because of the reactions to it being overly saturated on radio at the time.

* BlackSheepHit: One of their biggest hits so far is "Amnesia", a "Hey There Delilah"-esque acoustic ballad that sounds nothing like the pop-punk they are known for. Also ironic considering that the Plain White T's were originally a pop-punk group before "Delilah"'s success.
** "Amnesia" is also an anomaly in that it's the only song on the album 5SOS doesn't have writing credits for. It was actually written by the Madden Brothers from Music/GoodCharlotte and sounds nothing like the pop punk ''they'' were known for either.

* ColbertBump: Them opening for One Direction on two of their tours ultimately brought them much greater success than any other artists associated with the band save for Music/EdSheeran. It incidentally leads to OpinionMyopia amongst their fangirls. See the YMMV section for more info.

* FollowTheLeader: Following the success of these guys' first album, several other PopPunk groups took a bit of influence from them. Notably, Music/AllTimeLow's 6th album, ''Future Hearts'' was half-produced and written by John Feldmann and sounds like they were trying to appeal to their fanbase, some of whom were already fans of them. Another band, [=McBusted=]'s, first album has a similar style and production to 5 Seconds of Summer's first album as well, as well as similar writing (though that may be because the guys are influenced by [=McFly=] and Busted). They even toured with them on the European leg of their 2014 tour to catch some of the hype.

The removed paragraph intensely hated on teenage girls for no reason other than to hate on teenage girls. If someone would like to rewrite that paragraph without the needless misogyny and hatred, that's completely fine, but there are ways to reword it without being horrible to teen girls.


* FanNickname: "5SOS", of course. It especially makes sense in analogy to "1D."
** Just in case you were wondering, it's not pronounced "five S.O.S.", it's pronounced "five sauce". This is a fan pronouncation which was eventually made official. Meaning that, yes, their live album ''LIVESOS'' is indeed pronounced "live sauce". It's stupid as all hell, but then again, their fanbase is made of teenage girls, so it's not THAT unbelievable.
