The greatest genre of music ever, It started around 1965-66, but it might have even started earlier.Punk is a style of music that is smarter then other genres like pop and other crap.Good punk bands are:Bad Religion, Minor Threat(Its hardcore), Dead Kennedys, The Replacements(Indipendant), The Jam, Nine Below Zero, Descendants, Iggy and the stooges, Misfits, The Damned, Nirvana, Me First and the gimme gimmes, and many others from the 70's-80's.
Posuer punk bands are:Green day, Good charlotte, Puffy(Even though i like them), Blink 182, Sum 41 and any other music you might find on the Radio.
((PS:The only good pop band is XTC, And they're from the 70's.))

Punk Rock Nowadays, is just a gimmic to get people to buy crappy merchandise like hats, shirts and shit.
Punk Rock Was better in the 70's, 80's and early 90's. These days, It sucks.

A good style of music everyone wants to say they listen to. In the sixties, it was created by revolutionary, much hated bands like the Velvet Underground, the MC5, Iggy and the Stooges and the Monks who didn't give a fuck about whether Lucy was in the sky or not. All of them were censored, viewed as dangerous, and maybe the truest to the punk rock additude of all. In the seventies it exploded into a big underground culture with it's most loved bands, like the Sex Pistols, the Ramones, the Clash, and other less famous ones. Then, traditional punk stopped doing as much for the kid who had found in it a way to get out of the traps they hated and many of the originals from the '70s got into new versions of it in the '80s like Post Punk and Hardcore. Many people in the '80s underground did new things with punk and were attacked by punks who wanted it all to stay the same. In the '90s, punk of most kinds became acceptable and so lots of suburban kids did one out of three things- the All American boys and girls got into bubblegum punk, the nerdier ones bought Clash T-Shirts because it was dangerous to them, and some grew mohawks and called themselves true punks, even though all of their music was either from the seventies or wanted to be. All three of them have been part of the ruin of punk rock. It seems like there are more "true punks" than anything else here, so here's my message to all of you- you're one the right track, but if you wonder why there hasn't been very much good music since 1977, maybe it's because you've had the chance to make it but you were too busy pretending it was the seventies. Now either do something new with the music or bury it.
Bubblegum punk- Yeah, I saw GC last night, OMG. There was this fight that almost happened, this guy in a scary shirt outside the theater and called them shit, so I went up to him and said- "No their not." I ran away after that, but that was so punk rock!
Nerd punk- No, punk is like these bands you've never heard of, like the Damned. Now they were one of the finest bands to come out of Britain in mid-seventies punk rock
"True" punk- Oh, sure, but were you there? I might not have been, but I can pretend, fuck you I'm punk rock.

Originally an underground type of music in the late 70's it gained more popularity in the 80's. It includes: gain and grainy music with simple power chords and deep and/ or raspy music and meaningful lyrics.

A type of music ussually simple, ussually blasting policital influenced songs that have been watered down in the 90's, but not killed. punk rock has pre existed its actual definition, as it is an expression musically agianst a government that would step on the people. many people believe that punk rock can only be 3 chords and simple lyrics as the last definition stated, which is very over stereotyped and false. Thier are many forms of punk including crust punk, hardcore, screamo and so forth, pop punk is not punk in any way.
real punk rock is not confined to over simplistic chords and lyrics but can have talented musicians (ie. the dead kennedys, DOA, SNFU, pennywise)

Punk Rock is starting a band with some friends who have never played an instrament before, and people come to your shows and actually like you even though you totally suck.

Kid 1: You wanna start a band?
Kid 2: Do you even know how to play anything?
Kid 1: Who the fuck cares?
Kid 2: Meh, I'm in.
Random wannabe: That's so punk rock!
