What is punk music?

It is crap in MDs opinion!!

 

I mean to say who would want to be labled Punk.

 

Dammit man! Im not punk any more!! Lol!

 

Loved that movie growing up, so sad, possibly a bit too homophobic but some classic lines and bands in there

 

In the US, "punk" also refers to "prison bitch"

 

I don't know what punk is or I don't have a description, but if you want to see the TSOL guitar from the first EP, look at at my avatar - I bought it from them in 1980.

Best think about punk for me is how it influenced and opened the road for other styles of music that I enjoy more, such as industrial, noise, a lot of metal music,.. styles that are more about the music and less about politics or lifestyle.

 

As I got older, mid to late 20s, I started to realise punk showed us lots of problems but gave us no real solutions.
Then as I hit my early 40s I realised no one else really seems to have any working answers, so have been falling back into punk for the last 5 to 7 years.
Not looking for political answers but just enjoying it for what it is.
