Any punk that seems poor or dirty. Richard Hell was a gutter punk. He actually needed his safety pins to hold his clothes together. Sid Vicious was also a gutter punk. Pretty much everyone who hung out at McLaren's shop in London was a gutter punk. There are some bands who are considered gutter punks.
The Casualties, The Dead Kennedys, Guttermouth, Sex Pistols, Eater and Antisocial are all gutter punk bands.

Get the Gutter Punkmug. The lead singer of the notorious '70s punk band The Sex Pistols. The name he was born with was John Lydon. The one and only time that they were on the Bill Grundy Show, Johnny Rotten swore about 8 times in 3 sentences. He was the one who introduced Sid Vicious to hair spray. He did NOT start the safety pin fad. Besides, safety pins are part of punk, so they weren't a fad. The punks were just so poor, that they used them to hold their clothes together. After the Sex Pistols broke up, Johnny Rotten started Public Image Ltd.

Get the Johnny Rottenmug. A dealer in New York City in the '70s. He specialized in speed and heroin, since marijuana was considered a hippie drug. He was quite known throughout the under ground for his great deals and for the fact that you could gipp him easily, because he had no common sense. One evening in the year of '77, Rockets Redglare was found at a bar with a bunch of his buddys, drinking beer. He footed the bill, which is something he never did, because he was almost always broke. One of his friends asked him where he got the money. On hearing this Rockets promptly started bragging to his friends that he killed Nancy Spungen. Yes, the same Nancy Spungen who at the time, was the girlfriend of Sid Vicious. Nancy was killed with Sid's favorite knife, that never got seperated from him. Sid was blamed for killing his girlfriend and stayed doped up on heroin for a week. At the end of the week, he and a bunch of friends had a huge party. One of Sid's friends told him that he knew of a great heroin dealer that could make him a good deal because of who he was. The dealer came to where Sid was staying and sold him some heroin. Sid took it and partyed till he dropped. The next morning he was found in the home, dead. We now know that what was given to Sid was a hot shot. Rockets Redglare was later reported to have comitted suicide.

Get the Rockets Redglaremug. A great band from the 70's. They played in CBGB'S, as did The Ramones. They were punk (obviously, after all by this time that's almost all I write about). This was the incarnation of The Heartbreakers, after Richard Hell left to start The Voidoids. The Heartbreakers were on The Sex Pistols Anarchy In The UK Tour.
