Is Punk Dead?

VincentLGgits · 07-16-2017, 05:26 PM

I live in Oklahoma City and there was a band here a few years ago that were the true definition of Punk. I'm talking intense destructive live shows with an after party that was 10xs as insane. It seems as if the lifestyle is gone but prove me wrong, tell me what you think!!

What is this "punk"

Dylstew · 07-17-2017, 05:02 PM

Not this again, hasn't this been going on since the 70's?. Look, there's still ****loads of punk bands being made and live shows being attended, and there's still major once being made. Some of them statistically ought to have such live shoes, and many old bands probably didn't have them as well.

On top of that, there's a BUNCH of artists that play some kind of punk music but somehow don't get called punk. This happens a lot with certain punky noise rock and indie rock bands.

And once more on top of that there's artists with a punk spirit and attitude.

****'s still not dead. Niche? A bit. But not dead.

I don't think the genre can be proclaimed dead, but it certainly doesn't have any ability to shake the establishment anymore.

It's very much like diarrhea in that way.
