Punk Rock is essentially any fast rock band that is made by someone who wants to form their own band to make what they want without being controlled by record companies, most of these hate authority but sometimes a punk band may even have nothing to do with politics at all.
Once they sign to record companies that means they become rockstars or they "Sellout" and aren't considered a punk band anymore.
Even if the subculture isn't big punk rock will always exist so long as you got Guitar, Bass and Drums.
Punk Rock isn't dead!
Anyone can make a punk rock band at anytime but not all of them get famous.

Get the Punk Rock mug.
the music the current edgy and different kids listen to. Lately it has been listened to by the kids who dislike currently popular music (because its popular), so instead they listen to music that was popular in the late 90's/early 00's- giving them a sense of superiority.

A style of rock music, like grunge, but without the jazz elements. Grunge, like a mixture of hard rock and heavy metal, lighter than metal, but harder than rock. Let's refer to rock as a blend of R&B/Funk Blues, Jazz, Country.
That means grunge is a blend of R&B, Jazz, Country, Metal. So, Punk Rock just means Non-Jazz Grunge so a blend of R&B, Jazz and Metal. Rock is a mixture of R&B, Jazz and Country. Apart frrom the music style, Punk Rock wears generally leather or jean jacket and stuff with holes. Rock generally wears also jackets but shoes and trousers have no holes.
