punk

Was a movement started in the 70s by bands like the Ramones, Clash, Sex Pistols, Casualties, Generation X, Mc5, Iggy and The Stooges etc. It was started in New York and made it's way to the UK around the year of 1975. It is now being ruined by bands like Good Charlotte, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance etc. These people are more focused on looking the part than on the music and message that comes along with it. Maybe if they chilled out for awhile and were themselves they could actually be put into a position to put out an actual punk album. Other people probably wont agree with me but I Think Sum41 is a pretty decent "punk" band. Listen to the lyrics to Fat Lip and dare not to call them punk. Anyways, the stereotyped style includes things like - Mohawks - Multi-colored hair - Tight jeans or ripped jeans - Studded belts - Peireced body parts - Tattoos You don't even have to look the part to be punk you just have to like the music and have the signature attitude, - Defiant - Politcally outspoken - Anti-establishment other traits I cannot think of.
