Is punk rock really dead? Its unfortunate that people think Blink 182, My chemical Romance and Good Charlotte is punk music.. but lets face it.. its not punk.. its junk!

I think there's great punk music out there.. listen to the Arctic Monkeys, BlackRebel motorcycle club, the strokes, the paybacks, we are scientists for real punk music.

punk bands, simply put, are bands that practice and preach against the following:

consumerism
corporate businesses
improper wealth distribution
authority
globalization

as simple as that.

bansd like:
crass
the icarus line
the germs
nrivana (yes...)
the clash

you dweeb
