If you speak of anarchy in more pragmatic terms, such as the decentralization of power from the established government, then yes punk really was and is about that. It doesn't need to stay in the domain of a lofty, political philosophy though. The very much alive DIY scene is proof of that. But [for the OP] to bitch about punk being dead... Throw a house show with bands playing your basement. That, or shut the **** up. Punk is as alive as you want it to be.

Punk happened because people like Joey Ramone, Television , Deb Harry etc etc all turned up and felt the mood. Punk isn't generational it's greed.
true punk is like dave warner from the suburbs the pistols and souxie are a product just as fake as duran duran. REAL punk went un noticed...as much as I hate to say it Lou Reed is real punk |

Punk isn't dead. It's changing.
Acts like The Clash, Sex Pistols and Dead Kennedys aren't playing anymore, but punk has inspired pop groups like Sum 41, Green Day, Simple Plan, My Chemical Romance, Blink-182 and NOFX. |

The Sex Pistols were the ones that really gave punk its "fuck off and fuck everything image" they were infamous for it on UK TV and media in the late 1970s. But then again The Doors, Iggy Pop and MC5 were doing the same thing a decade before and all are big influences on punk. Bands like the Buzzcocks were a bridge between punk and new-wave so behaved, whilst bands like the Dead Kennedys bridged the gap between the Sex Pistols and hardcore punk. The Ramones always seemed to be about having a good time in a heavily drug induced way and influenced a whole load of the future more commercial punk bands.
