What's the difference between art-punk and post-punk?

illusion · 01-02-2006, 09:09 PM

Well at punk was really like a little brother of post punk. They could be classified as the same if you will. If you wish to do some more research there is a book written about post punk

Any time I've heard "art-punk" mentioned, it's been interchangeable with post-punk, usually in regards to bands like Wire. So, I was just curious if there were any definitive characteristics that set the two apart.

I can't really say there is. I have a list of bands (from each sub-genre) which you could download and have a listen to, and report back to us whether you heard any differences.

Art Punk

The c o c k (<--without spaces)ney Rejects
Sham 69
The Blood

Post Punk

Gang of Four
Joy Division/New Order
Crass
The Fall

Fusion of both

Wire

I think you misread the wikipedia article, which stated that bands such as the C0ckney Rejects, Sham 69, and the Blood (all oi bands, I believe) went in the opposite musical direction from art-punk, believing that punk should be easy and simple to play and be made up of one minute three chord songs, whereas art-punk bands were... artsy... and used complex song structures and all that.
