- Punk rock (or simply punk) is a rock music genre
that developed between 1969 and 1976 in the
United States, United Kingdom, and Australia.
Rooted in garage rock and other forms of what is
now known as protopunk music, punk rock bands
eschewed perceived excesses of mainstream 1970s
rock. Punk bands created fast, hard-edged music,
typically with short songs, stripped-down
instrumentation, and often political,
anti-establishment lyrics. Punk embraces a DIY
ethic many bands self-produced recordings and
distributed them through informal channels, which
can be seen in modern indie bands today.
3- The term "punk" was first used in relation to
rock music by some American critics in the early
1970s, to describe garage bands and their
devotees. By late 1976, bands such as the Sex
Pistols, The Clash and The Damned in London, and
Television and the Ramones in New York City were
recognized as the vanguard of a new musical
movement. The following year saw punk rock
spreading around the world, and it became a major
cultural phenomenon in the United Kingdom. For
the most part, punk took root in local scenes
that tended to reject association with the
mainstream. An associated punk subculture
emerged, expressing youthful rebellion and
characterized by distinctive styles of clothing
and adornment (ranging from deliberately
offensive T-shirts, leather jackets, spike bands
and other studded or spiked jewellery to bondage
and SM clothes) and a variety of
anti-authoritarian ideologies.
4Sub genres
- By the beginning of the 1980s, faster, more
aggressive styles such as hardcore (e.g. Black
Flag) and Oi! (e.g. Cock Sparrer) had become the
predominant mode of punk rock. Musicians
identifying with or inspired by punk also pursued
a broad range of other variations, giving rise to
post-punk and the alternative rock movement. At
the end of the 20th century, punk rock had been
adopted by the mainstream, as pop punk bands such
as Green Day, The Offspring and Blink-182 brought
the genre widespread popularity
5- Before getting into sub genres eve further, many
believe that punk derived from Rock and roll,
rockabilly, surf rock, garage rock, glam rock,
pub rock, protopunk and 1960s ska. This shows in
punks typically simplistic playing style.
