an offshoot of the early
british oi!
scene pioneered by bands like cock sparrer and the
4-skins. some of the early streetpunk bands included the varukers, vice squad, blitz, the exploited, and the business. most present streetpunk bands such as union 13, the unseen, the krum bums, resilence, and the devotchkas have taken on a more aggresive style of streetpunk, but some bands like the street brats, the lancasters, and antidote (the
one from holland, not new york) still play the more traditional style of it. it has widely become a laughing matter in most punk circles because most of its most outspoken bands (the casualties, cheap
sex, and about 90% of the other bands on punkcore records) sing about nothing more than how
drunk they can get, how punk they are, how much they hate
emo and how spiky their hair is.
