i think its pretty safe to say he was refering to the music genre rather than the movement, I guess the term "punk rock" was coined by Dave Marsh (according to wikipedia) who was a rock critic and used it to describe "garage rock". but who knows, ive heard several differant stories as to who the first band considered "punk" was and how the term came to be.
