Anything by any of the current pop-punk bands should fit the bill, so check out stuff by Blink 182, Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and and and.....

Most of the classic surf music such as Miserlou, Walk Don't Run, Surfrider and Diamond Head are played with power chords.

Happy Sunsets!

Or just about any pop song. Just drop the thirds and play every chord as a powerchord. That way you can play the songs you already know and try to rock it up a little bit.
