Solarpunk is a movement focused on a positive, ecological vision for a future where technology is used for human-centric and ecocentric purposes. It is a literary, artistic and aesthetic sub-genre and is also closely tied to eco-political activism. Solarpunk narratives have a distinctly positive and utopian foundation in contrast to the often dystopian visions found within other "punk" science fiction genres.
Solarpunk is a literary movement, a hashtag, a flag, and a statement of intent about the future we hope to create.

Excellent New York rock band who have created awesome albums like "Agents Of Fortune", "Fire Of Unknown Origin" and many others. Lead guitar player is the awesome Buck Dharma. Sometimes called the "thinking man's heavy metal band" which I personally think is a bullshit title, as it misrepresents both heavy metal fans, and heavy metal music. Most good heavy metal/hard rock bands create "intelligent" music (early Judas Priest, Black Sabbath etc, and no, I dont consider 80's "hair" metal bands to be representative of what metal stands for). Awesome band nonetheless, and if you dont know they're music, check them out. Listen with an open mind

A New York rock n' roll band whose greatest singles feature Buck Dharma on vocals (however Eric Bloom is the lead vocalist). Famous for hits such as, "Burnin' For You", "Godzillia", and most well known, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper)".
