Punk is cool

*shrug* cool i guess lol

i think its a mix between rock and pop but with more cussing and tattoos

doubtful... maybe they should put the true meanig in the official dictionary... cause you know, Bling Bling is a word?! why cant punk be one too? 😂

this debate is stupid and is what drives people away from punk in the first place. this elitist punker than though bullshit has no place in this or any music scene. punk has no specific sound or set of lyrics its about a set of ethics, whether you express that through the music of your choice or through a fanzine. your dress or nationality have nothing to do with it. and nobody bring up that "sell out" crap because the pistols, the ramones, and many of those other bands were on major labels.

That's right, darthjello. Punk is(by definition): A youth movement of the late 70's characterized byanti-establishment slogans ad outrageous clothes and hairstyles. That's pretty close. It's basically lous, fast-paced, little chord progression. Mostly Barr chords. Lyrics are traditionally political, but not necessarily. It's about rebellion.

it is that SA but it's other things too. The stuff from Southern california between 1978 ad 1987 is the hardest punk ever released

That's true. I'm just saying what te technical definition of it is. I think that 80's punk in SoCal is the greatest punk era of all time. But I alo like early 90's...Rancid, AFI, Green Day, Blink-182.

AFI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RANCID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREENDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLINK 182!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol. Good taste so far, Ronnykin.

i saw that new video that blink has... and i will honestly say that is th first blink song that i like.

technically, The hamburg era beatles, Nirvana, and Igor Stravinsky are punk

Nirvana arent punk, their grunge. I think the best punk is english seventies. But the ramones are good too.
Did any1 see busted sing teenage kicks during the brit awards i wanted to cry.

blink 182 are so not punk neither are greenday so dolnt be going saying that they are you imbseal btw this is sk8rpunkbarbie and i kno punk coz sex pistol is one of my closest mates.........

and the sex pistols music was punk?

sex pistols= british boy band

Sex Pistols were punk, yes. They didn't start it, however. But that doesn't matter. Anyway, nobody has a right to say what punk is or isn't, because it IS NOT a style of music, it is a way of life.

exactly... hence the reasons of me saying their music wasnt punk. in all honestly you could call sex pistols pop/rock. pop is just short for popular and we all know what kind of impact that the sex pistols have had on the music industry... all in all where im going with this is that labeling music is a bunch of crap. granite i label music jsut like the next guy would, but then again i have no choice because that is how people come to terms with music.
punk IS a life style, not a music style. if anyhting punk is rock of the new age.
"society is a ***** of a thing when it comes to labeling"
