PUNK's NOT DEAD

I'm new so apologies and all that but I had to add one thing o the Punk Theses. This clip right here is punk.

When it starts to smell a bit, you move onto whichever groups bring the attitude.. you can tell a fucking mile off if its punk or not.

Girls Aloud are punk.

Johnny Cash was punk.

..and like the Audio Bullys said - Hip-Hop and House is punk.

I'm in the fuckin' Twilight Zone

Oh dear - I did apologise for being late on this theme if you'll forgive me, but funnily enough above this message are at least 6 definitions of what's definitely not punk.

What I was 'attempting' to draw attention to was that the Audio Bullys lyric draws a line through music history of what bands had the 'attitude' of punk.

So punk ain't just basic guitar n drums & a pair of converse - but about a thousand other things which it's obviously pointless to go into on here.

I'm out of here. Dudes.

oh god, who cares!?

Hey guys, the music that rebellious kids listen to today is not the same music that rebellious kids listened to 30 years ago, okay?

and becuase I listen to the older music I am cool.

This thread makes me giggle.

Punk is dead and buried and rotting stop digging up it's corpse you sickos

punk is obviously undead.

Whether it is dead or alive quit stabbing it with new threads.

Punk is the New Coke of Zombies.

And keep it out of lifestyle. Wait, maybe it should go in current events?

The Sex Pistols were folk.

The Young Pioneers were folk.

Oh, wait...

Also, I think there's a lesson hear for all of us:

exactly...and I think he would have bristled at the assumption.

Dude, that was so fucking punk.

*that was sarcasm. I wouldn't say Punk is dead, but I'd say its gasping for its last breathes.

Well, it can trace its intellectual tradition back through the iconoclasm of the Fugs and the Beats back to the Romantics and from there to the ancient Greeks, so I'm pretty sure its Punk.
