A) Music movement started in the 70's with multiple reasons and causes. There was an Americn and British Punk movement. Proto-punk bands such as Iggy Pop and the Stooges, the Motor City 5, and the Velvet Underground were influential in setting the stage for taking the risks bands like The Ramones, The Dictators, The New York Dolls, and Blondie did. The British movement supposedly was started by one of the following: The ecnomic disaster that occured in the mid seventies, and the youth's lack of patience with the british government. A movement made out of boredom by Johnny Rotten, lead singer of the Sex Pistols. This Movement caused the creation for most genres of music today, it's even represented in the roots of such types as hip hop, rap, pop, modern rock, goth, electro, two-tone. It did not create these genres, but it certainly kicked down the door for them. B) Culture started in the 70's by the same music movement. The point of the culture was like the music, be yourself and disregard the angry emotions it may stir up. No longer a real culture, only a burned image with the values behind it lost, you can see it in stores such as Hot Topic. People No longer understand it was always about being yourself and not being anyone's shadow. C) Modern Movement, characterized by some bands that have actually kept the movement alive, some by giving off the image, and pop-punk bands that are, regardless of what people want to say, in way of the Ramones and even the Misfits. Pop Punk is a very melodic form of punk, it's not " pop" because it's popular, it's pop because of the style of playing. Bands that try to sell an image alone with no true love for the music are the ones made fun of the most, with little or no time together before being popularized by mainstream tv. These are the same bands that promote a pre-made image that's ready to sell to a pre-teen to early adult demographic. For the most part it works, and this entire culture has been reffered to as " Mallcore" or " mallxcore," because these are the same people that have never heard of the Ramones or Sex Pistols but think they're punk because they shop at hot topic and listen to MTV's Flavor of the week " band." feel free to laugh at these people, most people who know what the music is about do. The Current culture is in a sad state because it's focused on replicating the 70's instead of being itself. There are a few who understand it and refuse to subscribe to the image mold. D) Music Structure. Many like to characterize this genre with Power chords only and simple drum beats. These People are complete and utter idiots and should be regarded as imbecils. They more than likely know nothing about music in the first place, or are just that type of idiot that doesn't understand other types of music can be good, and that music, like other things, is all about opinion. Punk has had it's fair share of complicated guitar solos, insane drumming performances, all while keeping a melody, which most " jam bands" sorely lack, along with talent and lyrical prowess. Many of the early punk bands did utilize simple chords and beats, but like all types of music, it branched out and has many styles, from simple to complex, traditional to exotic, it all has to do with where you're looking.

I love Punk music\!\!\!

The wide-spread basic understanding/definition of “punk” includes a basic wanting to be different, is who is different. A “real punk” will never stereotype themselves. To put this in perspective, have you ever heard a cheerleader say “Oh my god, I’m SO prep, that girl over there dressed in all pink is SUCH a wannabe poser.” … I doubt it…if you have, I pity you…greatly….for even knowing OF such a person. When someone’s says “Oh my god, look at that POSER\!\!\!\!” Does that honestly make them “punk” and therefore “cool?” The name also came from punk rock. A form of hard-driving rock 'n' roll originating in the 1970s, characterized by harsh lyrics attacking conventional society and popular culture, and often expressing alienation and anger. Rock music with deliberately offensive lyrics expressing anger and social alienation; in part a reaction against progressive rock. (there are other definitions of this on this site way better than this one) This is what started the whole thing. But punk rock goes AGAINST stereotyping, (that would be the conventional society and popular culture) and calling oneself “punk” is just that. There are “real punks” and posers. They ARE two separate categories. The above just proves that there are a LOT more posers then there appear to be. First of all: “real punks” “Real punks” are technically punk rockers. A performer or follower of punk rock music. However, in today’s hypo-heterogeneous music gene pool, there is hardly any real punk music, as a definition. It’s always “punk rock,” “punk pop” whatever. They all count. Punk (as defined above) is a type of music defined by LYRICS and ATTITUDE. This means that punk rockers are listeners of punk music, with punk music categorized by the message the band is sending. This is how we get posers. “Punks” tend to dress a little crazy (crazy to “normal” people, the rest just think blue hair is cool) but it never really became a “fashion” until certain celebrities started calling it that. (Avril, Hilary) Yes. Sadly, all those old school, before it became popular, punks were screwed over by, you guessing it, POPULAR CULTURE. Suddenly it became “cool” to be “punk.” To dress different, and do crazy things with ones hair and makeup. This is not to say that everyone who does this, even younger people (and by younger I’m referring to people who couldn’t possibly have been punk rockers before, as in they weren’t born in the 1970’s,) are posers. You are a punk rocker if you listen to punk music. It doesn’t matter what you dress like. How you DRESS has NOTHING to do with being punk. It means that either A) you honestly like the clothing style that has been termed “punk” and you wear it because of that or B) You’re a POSER trying to be cool and you think your clothes will do that for you and you’re no better than preps who obsess with clothes to become popular and think that other people’s clothing defines them just like it will define you as “punk” and “cool.” Punks by definition, both above and social don’t WANT to be cool. They want to be themselves and rebel against anything they feel is suppressing them. Posers are much easier to define them punks. Posers are people who pretend to be “punk” because they think it’ll make them “cool” What I really want people to see is that by calling yourself a “punk” how much of a loser that makes you look. Claiming to be “punk” and calling other people “posers” does NOT mean you are a poser, I never said that, but if you think that it makes you “cool” to be “punk” and call other people “posers”, then you are. Realize that punk is NOT A FASHION STYLE, AND CLOTHING MEANS NOTHING WHAT-SO-EVER. Anyone who basis any judgment what someone is wearing and labels them from that is either a poser themselves or just a fucking rude and ignorant person. The determination of punk vs. poser is not in CLOTHES or anything like that, but someone’s TRUE music preference and mindset regarding society and life.

Someone who likes music like that of the Ramones and/or the Casualties (punk music) and dresses however they want, doesn't care what people think of them, and who could care less about being famos and just wants to live.

Cool caveman music with a fuckyou attitude.Only real punks know the sounds associated with true punk. \> It's really pretty undefinable but most people who think they know what it is or how it's supposed to sound usually have alot of wrong ideas about it thanks to Mtv in the 80's and beyond. \> [punk is all about being yourself, liking what you like, doing what you do and not having to live upto someone elses expectations, only your own. there is no dress code, hair colour or rules to be punk, since punk is about being true to yourself.] \> ^^^fuck an A bud,that's right the fuck on\! People should just be them fuckin selves and stop being goth or emo or metal or black metal or death metal or punks or preps or jocks or twats or what the fuck ever else and just fuckin be cool and have some fuckin respect for one another.

punk is about not bein a punk \> think,say,do,be what you want \> listen to whatever fuckin music you like \> dress however you want to dress \> stop tryin to impress others so hard \> stop trying to fit into any one particular fucking category so hard as this is the most anti-establisment thing you can do is not let anybody define you and categorize you and label you \> You don't have to have a mohawk or tattoos or piercings,you don't have to do any motherfucking thing to fit in with any fucking body

Punk is not deifinitive. Its music, and whatever itmeans to a induvidial person. Often a movement from the Punk Rock music, often a fast 3 chord style inspired of early rock n roll. However also element of ska and other genres is often seen. De definition punk came up in the late 70's but the music has ben alround probaly for decays, but the name was given after the English music magazine "punk" wich featured bands as patty smith and the sex pistols. Many bands such as Cock sparer (UK formed 1974) and the Ramones (usa formed 1974) is today considered punk. Gary bushel, English music journalist named certain punk bands "Oi\!" (Cockney slang, means "Hey\!" "hi\!" or "hello\!") However today the the punk, and most of all the SKinhead movement has taken this word and made it a aprt of their way of life. However it would be a matter of opinions wich band is a punk band and wich is an Oi\! band. There has always ben political opinion invovled in punk lyrics, but not a certain parti political line. Many punk lyrics ex: Ramones, I'm against it: "I dont' like politics, I don't like communists, I don't like games and fun, I dont like anyone\! And im against it\!" Cock sparrer, watch your back: "We don't wanna be part of a new religion, we don't wanna be fooled with a swizz balde knife, We don't wanna be part of a political dream, just wanna get on living out life" However other bands like Crass has clearly a string left ving political moment. A band like the Exploited and the sex pistols, has posed with nazi symbols, but their lyrics are in no way right or particually left ving. It seems like a provocation against exstremists, both left and right and the casual person. Both extreme left ving and extreme right ving punk bands have ben seen, but has not becomed a generel considered typical role model for people interested in the punk scene

Punk is not a fashion, its a way of life

PUNK= PEOPLE UNDER NEW KNOWLEDGE People who respect people who respect them. The fight for there own rights. They have great pride. They prevent chaos. PUNK IS: the personal expression of uniqueness that comes from the experiences of growing up in touch with our human ability to reason and ask questions. PUNK IS: a movement that serves to refute social attitudes that have been perpetuated through willful ignorance of human nature. PUNK IS: a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and through repetition, flowers into social evolution. PUNK IS: a belief that this world is what we make of it, truth comes from our understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to prescriptions about the way things should be. PUNK IS: the constant struggle against fear of social repercussions.

A very wide genre of rock started in 1977 that has a sound that has infleunced countless types of music some of which including: [streetpunk], [oi], [d-beat], [crust] [powerviolence], [pop-punk], [grind], [indie], [emo], [screamo], [hardcore], [deathrock], [77], [uk82], [glam], [hair metal], [speed metal], and even [sludge metal]. It is a label that is largely misunderstoof by the public (despite what they may think) and so overused that obvious fallacies to what the style is (fast, loud, and hard) have become accepted. Such clearly [pop] acts like [Hilary Duff] have been labeled punk which is downright laughable.

Punk has become too wide of genre to apply to any specific type of music now. Almost any band that plays fast, loud, and hard can be called punk, although not always correctly. The punk music label has become simply a matter of perspective, for example: a common [streetpunk] might say that [The Casualties] are a punk band, while a [crust punk] would simply laugh at this, and then proceed to listen to Axegrinder.

1. A "punk" was originally a tramp's young homosexual companion. In other words, a [rent boy] with no ethics. It then mutated in meaning, via an insult connoting the same, to become a term for a ruffian (mid 20th century). It was in this sense it was used in [Punk Rock] from 1976 onwards. 2. TRUE: Someone who does what he or she wants because they like doing it, and not giving a fuck about what other people think. 3. FALSE: Someone who can't think for themselves, so imitates people from category 2 above, in an attempt to look [kewl].

1. Punk was the English term for the French [Apache] - see [George Orwell]'s Down & Out in Paris and London for details. 2. The most truly Punk thing that [Johnny Rotten] did was to quit the [Sex Pistols] and form [PIL]. 3. [Busted] were fake punks, who have now thankfully split up.

Punk changed. It's not dead, but the name is being abused. Good punk, the old stuff, like MDC, The Clash, Misfits, Subhumans, Dead Kennedys etc., are being pissed on by bands like [Blink-182] or [Good Charlotte]. Although bands like Blink and GC are called punk, they don't have the punk feel. They just feel poseurish. If they're reading this :Dressing punk doesn't make you punk.

Classic Punk - MDC, The Clash, The Misfits, Dead Kennedys, Subhumans, Vice Squad, The Damned, Crass, Toxic Narcotic, Toy Dolls, The Ramones, Adicts, Lower Class Brats, etc. Posuer Punk - Blink 182, Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Green Day, etc. Recent, but real punk - Pennywise, NOFX, Rancid, etc.

Punk is not about a certain hair colour, style, or music, although music does take a large part in most punks lives. Punk is about liking what you like, being yourself, saying what you think and FUCK ALL THE REST. You don't need a two foot high red mohawk to be a punk, although that is wicked cool. You don't need sleeves, a backpiece, or any tattoos at all to be punk. You don't need a Misfits, Casualties, Sex Pistols or any band like that jacket to be punk. You don't need anything to be punk except for awareness, self respect, respect for others and an open mind. PUNK IS NOT DEAD.

Punk is not a mohawk. Punk is not mismatched [Chucks]. Punk is not studded belts, leather, checkered patterns or any other kind of clothing. Punk is not not sold, bought, or traded. Punk sure as hell is not MTV. Punk is not found at Hot Topic. Punk is speaking out against society because you're pissed off and don't care what someone else thinks. Punk is saying and doing what you want, when you want, how you want. Punk is dressing however you want to dress, looking however you want to look, and listening to whatever music you want to listen to, not because it's popular or un-popular, but because it's what you want. Punk is being selfish, greedy and conceited and admitting it with pride. Punk is Awesome.

Poser: "Dude, are you listening to Rap? Where's your 'hawk, and your Chucks, and your Mork suspenders? You're a poser man\!" Punk: "Fuck you, I like Snoop. Now piss off before I go 187 with my dick in your mouth, beyotch."

Punk music= Angry rock That is the basis of punk. Its a way of expressing yourself. Punk was started by The Sex Pistols, and the banner is now carried by many bands. Punk is one of the many strands of rock music, including metal , blues rock, and classic rock. Theres a common misconception that you have to dress the part to listen to punk. It is total bs. It doesn't matter at all how you look. There is no need to get a mohawk, or rip ur fav tshirt. As long as you like the music, its fine by me *NOTE* ive been hearing that people are putting the jonas brothers under punk. that is bull shit. to do that is an insult to music itself. jonas bros = a disney marketing plan punk = real music

1)Punk is a type of music in rock. Like a different type of rock would be ska, metal, or alternative. Punk, is usually reffered to as a type of music that contains a scratchy guitar sound, fast beat, and write about mostly the government and politics. Though, it always doesn't have to be that. Punk could be in your own terms. 2)A person that listens to mostly punk rock in general and doesn't care what other people say about him/her and always does his/her own thing. THAT's a real punk.

Punk Rock bands : the Misfits, Ramones, Green Day, the Explosion, and Rancid are some talented bands. and anyone who says they're a punk, then be one, don't listen to other people, you are what you fucking are.

punk is a type of music with an attitude in it, the kind of music that says i dont give a fuck about what you think. yet a lot of bands can really have a message about how fucked up the system is and what exactly is wrong with the government. punk music sounds like sped up rock with a hard edge. but look out, there is a lot of fake bands who try to sneak in with an edge so dont let that fool you. first of all, crying about your girlfriend dumping you does not make you punk. good charlotte and fall out boy messed up big time on that so dont EVER call them punk. punk originated, or at least got the idea in 1969. no, not the mid 80s, 1969. punk just got POPULAR in the 80s thats all. there were a lot of punk bands before the 80s, such as the stooges (1969), the misfits, the clash, black flag, the sex pistols, FEAR, the adicts, the ramones, and much more. many people have been saying that punk has died out. and for all the dumbasses who say that, no it didn't. if you listen to the underground you can see that every band is still carrying it on. so if you ever wanna know how things are going, get your ass off those razor blades, mascara, and "my chemical romance", and figure it out.

punk bands are the adicts, ramones, UK SUBS, the misfit, FEAR, GBH, the stooges, the clash, dead kennedys, the exploited, chaos UK, aus rotten, social distortion, minor threat, discharge, subhumans, black flag, KSF, and stuff like that

punk is not a style, it is not wearing as many braclets as you can fit on your arm or spiking your hair. It is not about dressing in stripes or in Torn-up clothes or even how many times you've rammed a needle inside yourself. It is the way you live and breathe your life.

sex pistols and ramones are punk rock. that stupid emo crap you hear...AFI for instance would NOT be punk......so quit complaining about punk rock music being for fags until you learn what it is\!

I would like to start this by saying that I wasnt alive in the seventies and I never got the chance to see the likes of The Pistols, The Clash or even The Ramones. This is simply my opinion. I think that: Punk is a loud, fast, often anti-establishment type of music. It was influenced by and has influenced many different types of music. It started in the seventies and was popularized by The Clash, Sex Pistols and the Ramones. Punk is not an image it is a belief and a lifestyle as well as a type of music. Since the end of the seventies it has become impossible to truly define becuase it gave birth to so many different forms of music such as indie, goth, hardcore, emo, punk pop etc. Because of this a sort of "punk snobbery" has developed, were "true punks" look down upon others for not being around in that era. Definately Punk: Sex Pistols, The Clash, Ramones A little bit Punk: The Jam, Blondie, Green Day Not Punk: Avril Lavine, Good Charlotte, Elliot Minor

Punk is not a fashion sense and it should not be an opportunity to look down on people because they are just beggining to get into Punk with "softer bands" like The Jam or Green Day.

Punk is a lifestyle. the ramones did not start punk rock they simply lived it. No one started punk it was picked up. In this day and age there are still punks but there are just as many posers.

THE TRUE DEFINITION OF PUNK. A Punk Manifesto by Greg Graffin I have never owned a record label, nor directed a successful merchandise company, so I don't pretend to be an expert on marketing. I have evolved through my craft as a songwriter, but others have labeled it and marketed it and made it neat for consumption. Although I have made money from Punk, it is a modest amount when one considers the bounty that has been bestowed on the companies that promote Punk as some sort of a product to be ingested. It has always been my way to de-value the fashionable, light-hearted, impulsive traits that people associate with Punk, because Punk is more than that, so much more that those elements become trivial in the light of human experience that all punkers share. Since it has been a part of me for over half of my life, I think the time has come to attempt a definition, and in the process defend, this persistent social phenomenon known as Punk. It is astounding that something with so much emotional and trans- cultural depth has gone without definition for so long, for the roots of Punk run deeper, and go back in history farther than imagined. Even in the last two decades, it is difficult to find any analysis of the influential effect that Punk Rock had on Pop Music and youth culture. And rarer still are essays detailing the emotional and intellectual undercurrents that drive the more overt fashion statements that most people attribute to Punk. These are some of the wants that compelled me to write this. If my attempt offends the purists, collapses the secrecy of a closed society, promotes confidence in skeptical inquiry, provokes deeper thought, and decodes irony, then I have done my job and those who feel slighted might recognize the triviality of their position. For I have nothing to promote but my observations on a sub-culture that has grown to global proportions, and through visiting much of it, I have found threads of common thought everywhere. Common thought processes are what determine the ideology that binds people together into a community. There is desire among Punks to be a community, but there needs to be some shape imparted on the foundations of the punk ideology, and where it comes from. The current Punk stereotype is scarred by mass-marketing and an unfortunate emphasis on style over substance. But these ills don't destroy the Punk sentiment, they merely confound the education of the new generations of people who know they are punk, but don't know what it means. It is a long road to understand what it means. This essay is part of the process. PUNKS ARE NOT BEASTS Punk is a reflection of what it means to be human. What separates us from other animals? Our ability to recognize ourselves and express our own genetic uniqueness. Ironically, the commonly held view, among the marketeers and publicity engines, stresses the "animalistic", "primitive" nature of punks and their music. They assume that violence is a key ingredient in punk music, and this assumption is easily perpetuated because it is easy to market violence and news items about violence always get column space. This focus on violence misses a key element of what Punk is all about: PUNK IS: the personal expression of uniqueness that comes from the experiences of growing up in touch with our human ability to reason and ask questions. Violence is neither common in, nor unique to punk. When it does manifest itself it is due to things unrelated to the punk ideal. Consider for example the common story of a fight at a high school between a punk and a jock football player. The football player and his cohort do not accept or value the punk as a real person. Rather, they use him as a vitriol receptacle, daily taunting, provoking, and embarrassing him, which of course is no more than a reflection of their own insecurities. One day, the punk has had enough and he clobbers the football captain in the hallway. The teachers of course expell the punk and cite his poor hairstyle and shabby clothing as evidence that he is a violent, uncontrollable no-good. The community newspaper reads "Hallway Beating Re-affirms that Violence is a Way of Life Among Punk Rockers". Spontaneous anger at not being accepted as a real person is not unique to punkers. This reaction is due to being human, and anybody would react in anger regardless of their sub- cultural, or social affiliation if they felt de- valued and useless. Sadly, there are plenty of examples of violence among punks. There are glaring examples of misguided people who call themselves punks too. But anger and violence are not punk traits, in fact, they have no place in the punk ideal. Anger and violence are not the glue that holds the punk community together. IN UNIQUENESS IS THE PRESERVATION OF MANKIND Nature bestowed on us the genetic backbone of what punk is all about. There are roughly 80,000 genes in the human genome, and there are roughly 6 billion people carrying that genetic compliment. The chances of two people carrying the same genome are so small as to be almost beyond comprehension (the odds are essentially ? 80,000 times the number of possible people you can meet and mate with in a lifetime\! A practical impossibility) The genes we carry play a major role in determining our behavior and outlook on life. That is why we have the gift of uniqueness, because no one else has the same set of genes controlling their view of the world. Of course cultural factors play the other major role, and these can have a more homogenizing effect on behavior and world-view. For example, an entire working-class town might have 15,000 residents who are raised with the same ideals, work at the same factories, go to the same schools, shop at the same stores, and like the same sports teams. As their children develop, there is a constant interaction of opposite forces between the social imprinting their culture imparts and the genetic expression of uniqueness. Those who lose touch with their nature become society's robots, whereas those who denounce their social development become vagrant animals. Punk stands for a desire to walk the line in between these two extremes with masterful precision. Punks want to express their own unique nature, while at the same time want to embrace the communal aspects of their cookie-cutter upbringing. The social connection they have is based on a desire to understand each other's unique view of the world. Punk "scenes" are social places where those views are accepted, sometimes adopted, sometimes discarded, but always tolerated and respected. PUNK IS: a movement that serves to refute social attitudes that have been perpetuated through willful ignorance of human nature. Because it depends on tolerance and shuns denial, Punk is open to all humans. There is an elegant parallel between Punk's dependence on unique views and behaviors and our own natural genetic predisposition toward uniqueness. THE BATTLE OF FEAR AND RATIONALITY The compulsion to conform is a powerful side-effect of civilized life. We are all taught to respect the views of our elders, and later when we realize that they are just dogmatic opinions, we are taught not to make a commotion by asking difficult questions. Many just go along with the prevailing notions and never express their own views, which is analogous to a premature death of the individual. Our species is unique in the ability to recognize and express the self, and not exercising this biological function goes against the natural selection gradient that created it in the first place. This complacency combats a fear of failure. It is easy to assume that if everyone else is doing something, then there is no way to fail if you just go along with it. Cattle and flocks of geese can probably recognize this advantage. But the entire human race could fail because of this mentality. Thinking and acting in a direction against the current of popular opinion is critical to human advancement, and a potent manifestation of Punk. If an issue or phenomenon is found to be true only because other people say it is so, then it is a Punk's job to look for a better solution, or at least find an independent variable that confirms the held view (sometimes the popular view is just a reflection of human nature, Punks don't live in denial of this). This ability to go against the grain was a major part of the greatest advances in human thinking throughout history. The entire Enlightenment period was characterized by ideas that shunned the dogma of the time, only to reveal truths in nature and human existence that all people can observe, and that are still with us today. Galileo fought the church, the church won the battle, by putting him in jail for life, but ultimately lost the war; few people today believe that the sun orbits around the earth, and thus God didn't create the earth as the center of the universe. Francis Bacon insisted that human destiny is equal to understanding. If we deny this fundamental principle of what it means to be human, he reasoned, then we descend into the depths of mere barbarism. Charles Darwin, wrote after the heyday of the Enlightenment, he nonetheless was directly influenced by its tradition, was trained as a theologian and yet still was driven to understand the underlying order that connected biological species he observed in his travels. His views threw into question many of the Bible's tenets, yet his reasoning was sound, and through a process of self-improvement (the struggle in his own mind to understand) he improved mankind by establishing a new benchmark of human knowledge. The dogma of the church was further marginalized. The fear of repercussion from the church was overshadowed by the wave of understanding that his views created in people, and by the truth to his observations. The modern-day Punk thought process, driven by this desire to understand, is a carbon-copy of the Enlightenment tradition. The fact that so many historical examples exist that reveal a will to destroy dogma leads to a powerful tenet: It is a natural trait of civilized humans to be original. The fact that uniqueness is so rare reveals that our nature is stifled by an equally potent opposing force: fear. PUNK IS: a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and by extrapolation, could lead to social progress. If enough people feel free, and are encouraged to use their skills of observation and reason, grand truths will emerge. These truths are acknowledged and accepted not because they were force-fed by some totalitarian entity, but because everyone has a similar experience when observing them. The fact that Punks can relate to one another on issues of prejudice comes from a shared experience of being treated poorly by people who don't want them around. Each has his/her own experience of being shunned, and each can relate to another's story of alienation without some kind of adherence to a code of behavior. The truth of prejudice is derived from the experience they all share, not from a written formula or constitution they have to abide by. Punks learn from this experience that prejudice is wrong, it is a principle they live by; they didn't learn it from a textbook. Without striving to understand, and provoking the held beliefs, the truth remains shrouded behind custom, inactivity, and prescriptive ideology. WHAT IS TRUTH? Philosophers distinguish between capital "T" truth and truth with a small "t". Punks deny the former. Truth with a capital "T" assumes that there is an order prescribed by some transcendental being. That is to say that truth comes ultimately from God, who had a plan for everything when he created the universe. Little "t" truth is that which we figure out for ourselves, and which we all can agree upon due to similar experience and observations of the world. It is also known as objective truth, from within ourselves, revealed here on this earth; as opposed to big T truth, which comes from outside and is projected down to us, specifically for us to follow. Morality need not be thought of as a product only of big "T" truth. Objective truth lends itself just as readily to a moralistic, spiritual culture. PUNK IS: a belief that this world is what we make of it, truth comes from our understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to prescriptions about the way things should be. Punk's dependence on objective truth comes from the shared experience of going against the grain. Anyone who has stood out in a crowd feels the truth of the experience. No one had to write a doctrine in order for the outcast to understand what it meant to be different. The truth was plain enough, and that truth could be understood and agreed upon by all those who shared a common experience. WHAT IS FEAR? The fears that drive people to conform have caused dismal periods in human history. The so-called Dark Ages, were tranquil and without upheaval, but also dismally quiet and pestilent, nary a contrasting view to be found. The pseudo-comfort and tranquility that the people of the Dark Ages experienced, by conforming to a rigidly enforced bureaucracy enforced by the king and church, was masked entirely by the misery they had to endure in their day to day life. Life is easy as a peasant, no direction, no purpose, just produce more goods and offspring for the benefit of the king. But using fear to control peasants (or modern-day blue-collar workers for that matter) is just a short-term foul exercise, because peasants have the same mental equipment as the royalty. The deeply ingrained biological traits of self-recognition and the desire to express the self cannot be quashed for long. Eventually peasants realize that life without the practice of reason is as good as being a farm animal. Being controlled by fear is the same as being biologically inert, unable to take part in the human drama, merely wasting away. The fear that controls human behavior is learned. It is different from the immediate, reflexive, run-away-from-the- nasty-stimulus response that other creatures employ to stay alive. We have motor reflexes like these as well, but fear of failure, and fear of speaking out come from the limbic system. The limbic system is a network of neurons in our brain that control our most deep-seated emotions. It connects two parts of the brain together: the midbrain, where sensory information is sent (i.e. sight and hearing stimuli) and the forebrain, where that information is processed. Although the forebrain has been around for at least 480 million years (it was present in the earliest vertebrates), it evolved special functions with the advent of humankind. A specialized portion of the forebrain, called the cerebral cortex, is highly developed in humans. 95% of our cerebral cortex is responsible for associative mental activities like contemplation and planning. The other 5% is responsible for processing motor and sensory information. By comparison, a mouse (also considered a higher vertebrate), has a cerebral cortex with only 5% of its neurons devoted to associative functions, while 95% are devoted to motor and sensory fuctions. The highly developed limbic system is at the core of what it means to be human. We differ from other animals in the amount of time we spend planning, contemplating, and expressing ourselves. Our limbic system is very powerful. It can over-ride primitive emotions, and suppress deep desires. Anyone who has ever seen a sad movie with friends, and willfully held back tears because they didn't want their friends to see them crying, employed the power of their limbic system. They contemplated the repercussions of their friends reaction to crying, and shut off the emotional cascade that would have brought the tears. In the same way that rationality is the product of the limbic system, fear is also centered in the same neurons of the limbic system. Fear is usually rational behavior, based on irrational thoughts, and it can freeze the processing power of the cerebral cortex. Denial and fear go hand in hand, and both are examples of how our limbic system can suppress obvious stimuli and promote behavior that is safe and conforming. The limbic system is like any other organ in the sense that it can operate unchecked to produce detrimental results. Being in touch with our bodies leads to overall general health, and the limbic system needs constant attention in order to master it. To overcome fear, one needs to be in touch with their limbic system, and recognize when it is suppressing the obvious. Etiquette and "being nice" are forms of limbic-system repression, necessary at times, but ultimately demeaning of human originality. Lying is the ultimate form of limbic-system repression. It is a denial of the obvious. Truth-tellers, those who are authentic and trustworthy, have learned to master their limbic system. They recognize the desire to lie, but rationalize the futility of advocating something that is not true. Liars, on the other hand, are slaves to their limbic system, out of touch with their most basic mental capacities. Their behavior is guarded and shifty because they let their flawed reasoning, to cover up the obvious, control their entire makeup. They eventually have to give in to the truth and concede defeat, but only after every possible avenue of deception and twisted logic has been advocated in the interest of hiding their fear. Politicians, Clergymen, Business leaders, and Judges are masters of twisted logic and promotion of fear. They make good intellectual targets for Punkers because they don't respect people who have learned to master their limbic systems. And Punkers are not afraid to point out that which is obvious, even if it means their social status might be jeopardized. PUNK IS: the constant struggle against fear of social repercussions. THE PUNK MOVEMENT I have tried to enumerate some of the factors that make Punk a movement, in the cultural sense. The typical stereotype of a feeble-minded ruffian vandalizing, destroying, stealing, fighting, or arguing in the name of some empty, short-lived cause is no more punk than the pretty-face-empty-head image of today's pop stars. Because it is so easy for record companies to sell images of violence, sex, and self-importance, many bands have taken the bait and portrayed themselves as Punks, without realizing that they were actually perpetuating a stereotype of conformity that is wholly un-punk. The "come join us" attitude that seeks to attract followers, usually results in a rabble of weak people who think that their power lies in the large numbers of like-minded clones they have compiled. There is no strength in numbers however, if the people are glued together by a short-sighted, self-serving, fear-induced mantra that promotes factions and exclusionary principles. Strong ideologies don't require a mob, they persist through time, and never go away, because they are intimately connected to our biology. They are part of what it means to exist as Homo sapiens. Punk typifies that tradition. It is a movement of epic proportions, that transcends the immediacy of the here-and- now, because it is, was, and always will be there-and-forever, as long as humans walk the earth. As we enter a new era in the voracious march of culture, Punks will have their day. The internet has allowed people to communicate directly once again. On the web, human behavior is interactive, like it was before the advent of mass-media. People now focus on ideological discussions and lifestyle issues, as opposed to the classic 20th century behavior of closing oneself off from cohorts, and adhering to a network's, or commercial's prescriptive code of acceptable behavior. The lies, and mysteries of elitism will erode quickly as the global conversation that transpires daily on the web invades more people's lives. The world population will be more receptive to alternative ideologies because they will be creating them. People will be less receptive to ideologies of out- dated institutions because the holes and flaws in their logic will be ever more amplified when they are broadcast instantly around the world as they become revealed. The "Strength-In-Understanding", and "Knowledge-Is-Power" ethics that Punks maintain will become the norm. The rigidity, brutishness, and futility of secret agendas will be made obvious, paving the way to an appreciation of human uniqueness, and a new era of originality. WHO IS PUNK? Everyone has the potential to be punk. It is much harder for someone who comes from a placid, un-challenging, ignorant upbringing, because they don't see the value in questioning or provoking the institutions that gave them such tranquility. But such examples of carefree existence are rare in today's shrinking world. Eternal questions still burn in the minds of most people. What it means to be human is becoming more clear every decade. Sometimes, people are trained to follow the safe path to an early grave by consuming and repeating the dogma of a fearful aristocracy. On the other hand, the human spirit is hard to kill. Punk is a microcosm of the human spirit. Punks succeed with their minds, not their brute force. They advance society by their diversity, not their conformity. They motivate others by inclusion, not domination. They are at the front lines of self-betterment and by extrapolation can improve the complexion of the human race. They adhere to unwritten universal principles of human emotion, obvious to anyone, and shun elitist codes of behavior, or secret agendas. They embody the hope of the future, and reveal the flaws of the past. Don't tell them what to do, they are already leading you. PUNK IS: the personal expression of uniqueness that comes from the experiences of growing up in touch with our human ability to reason and ask questions. PUNK IS: a movement that serves to refute social attitudes that have been perpetuated through willful ignorance of human nature. PUNK IS: a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and through repetition, flowers into social evolution. PUNK IS: a belief that this world is what we make of it, truth comes from our understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to prescriptions about the way things should be. PUNK IS: the constant struggle against fear of social repercussions.

A contradiction. Whatever I say it is, someone will disagree with it and someone will agree. Everyone has their own opinion on what punk is and there is no set definition.

In MTV's eyes, punk is any band with low self esteam that breaks curfew to look cool. A real punk doesn't give a shit about relationships, he'd just slap the bitch. BTW Punks naturally have black around their eyes from binge drinking. Good Charlotte just uses it for makeup to look "cool"

1)Punk is NOT: Avril Lavigne, Hilary Duff, Hot Topic, Sum 41, Good Charlotte. Punk IS: An i-dont-give-a-flying-rats-ass attitude towards a lot of things. Having strong feelings against the government and politics in general. a bit of an [anarchist] The punks that I'm friends with: have strong opinions about politics and the government, are against any form of supression against them, are drunks, drug addicts, pretty tough, crazy, easy going, a bit narcisstic, ARE NOT RACIST HOMOPHOBIC ETC., and apathetic (don't care about much). Dressing in plaid and leather jackets doesn't make you punk. Sorry to burst yer little bubble... Having a "i really don't give a shit, fuck you" attitude, being kind of anarchist, misbehaving...now that's a bit closer... Dressing in tight pants, boots, a leather jacket, and studs with a lovely multi-colored [mohawk] on top, doesn't make you "SO PUNK RAWK". even if you wear Lacoste and Abercrombie and all that... If you have the attitude, yer techincally a punk. 2) Loud, fast, and aggressive music. examples of real PUNK music: Ramones, Iggy and the Stooges, The Dead Boys, A Global Threat, Aus-Rotten, Reagan Youth, The Virus, The Casualties, Crass...just to name a few. Lyrics are usually about the government and politics and other topics to release anger...also sometimes humorous, rude, dirty, or [morbid] things (such as killing babies or raping mothers).

1) Person1: ew those are some nasty shoes. "Punk": yeh i really don't care what you think. i like them a lot so go fuck yerself. 2) "I Want To Be A Facist Pig, Love To Fight, What A Thrill, We Don't Stop Until We Kill.

Punk is a lifestyle. A mental state. The need to shake off all supression. To be FREE. Remember that word, Free. It's listening to the Ramones in a basement with friends while smoking a blunt.

Being punk isn't about trying to be different just to be different. It's not about wearing the coolest looking studded belt, it's not about dying your hair cause your parents don't want you to. It's not about being a bad ass and trying to impress anyone. It's not about being able to tell someone to "fuck off". It is about being able to be who you are and standing up for what you believe in. It's about being an individual.

when you listen to punk, it makes you feel angry and alive, you want to make shit and fuck shit up, and in that moment you really honestly don't give a fuck what anybody thinks about you. that's what punk is about. it doesn't matter what you look like or what you listen to; it's about feeling that raw energy. punk is like the statue you get to touch in a museum full of things you have to stand six inches away from. and now you're going to make it yours.

seriously, put on some punk and see if you can feel it.

Ideally, a style of music in which a small group of informed and active people get together and produce a raw, simplistic, chord-driven sound to back up lyrics that expose problems in the world and usually incite anger and energy. If done wrong, however, it results in a bunch of freaks with dyed hair banging away on guitars and yammering about American idiots.

Punk is not easy to describe. It is people who want to be themselves and rebel against anything that is oppressing them. The music is such things like Caustic Christ and MC5. Not Green Day and Blink 182. Punk is not about your ex-girlfriend. That's called emo. Punk is about being an individual. But not even that anymore because the people classified as punk nowadays all look alike with they're highlighter colored hair, and fucked up clothes. And their fucking mohawks. Don't go for the cool look. Go for something that would make everyone stare. Not what every other punk wears.

Time for the REAL definition of Punk A punk is a very defiant and rebellious individual who rebeled against moderen society, many have descirbed punks as "violent freaks" who go around kicking each others asses, well thats a steriotype, punk isnt something you find in a hot topic store, its not traded bought or sold, its DIY(do it yourself) thinking for youself, it also influenced many subcultures, Most punks soldout about the age of 27 becuase they realized Life isn't fair, noone cares wut you have 2 say, you need money to support your habits, and their friends moved on, sad subs like this only lasted from 78 ta 92, and that punks need money for such miscellaneas behavior Now for the Music: Punk music isnt Greenday, Good Charlotte, did i mention Blink 182? its not All Time Low, i could go on and on and on Punk Rawk is all about having fun YOUR WAY doing things YOUR WAY not some love song, Punk Rawk is teeing off, speaking your mind, believing in your lyrics, knowing that way your living in is complete shit, Bands that made punk wat it was are bands like Minor Threat, Sex Pistols, TSOL, Angry Samoans, Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Decendents, very fast paced, playing your own style not love rifts, Punk is fast its hardcore and DAM its mean did i mention it was Hardcore? it came right at ya, above all Punk is Chaos balls out CHASO\!\! no rules wat so ever, its DIY its a Political Movement, YOUR OWN WAY\!\!\!\!\!

1984: Posuer: PUNK RAWK PUNK RAWK OI OI\!\!\! Punk: stfu trendy posuer yer not apart of our rebellioun, go home and piss off before me and buds here kick yer ass Posuer: Imma poser look at yerself you got that EAZY E blasting in you speakers SELLOUT\!

It is what it is. there are simply too many ideas and beliefs that go into being a punk, and as a result, there is no clear definition. However, a strong sense of self, the desire to see and experience new things, and a lack of sympathy towards societies beliefs and thought processes are all aspects of being a punk. The only way to completely understand it is to go to a show and get in the pit. You will see people from all walks of life, dancing, singing and crowd surfing. It is here that you can see punks in their most natural state. Its also where you can see punks at their best because when someone does a stage dive, everyone holds them up, if someone falls down, everyone helps them up, if someone gets hurt, everyone helps them out. So in a sense, punk is about individualism and nonconformity, but at the same time, its about helping others and making the world a better place. It is in this way that the idea of being punk becomes a contradiction.

I wanted to get a better understanding of what punk was, so I went to go see (insert a random punk band here). I didn't intend on going into the pit, but I did, and now I understand.

Pre-Sid Vicious, pre-any stringy young male, "Punk" referred to the passive or "bottom" partner in a male-on-male prison sexual relationship. (The dominant or "top" man was called the "jock" or "jocker".) Since the punk was usually the scrawnier and younger of the two, that meaning of the term escaped into the general culture and eventually became attached to young, rebellious men fronting kick-ass rock bands.

PUNK IS... 1. Someone who listens to Punk music. No matter what they look like\! No matter what race, gender, age or sexuality. 2. A genre of music. Hard to describe but you can tell when you hear it. Crass, conflict and Restarts being obvious bands. But also spreading out with acoustic, folk, ska, metal or hardcore influence. King Blues, Zounds and Extreme Noise Terror and Mischief Brew being examples. NOT... 1.A fashion. 2.Almost all of stuff you'd hear on radio or television. 3.Homophobia, Sexism and Racism\!

Punk isn't "all about the music". Punk isn't beating up people you don't like. Punk is rebelling against what you don't believe in. Punk is the DIY ethic. You are not a punk if you shop at Hot Topic. No, rephrase that, you aren't a punk if you claim to be one BECAUSE of the fact that you shop at Hot Topic. Many people say punk is not buying into big corporations. True, but its okay to give in every once in a while. Punk is not being a total asshole to everyone you see, and excluding people because they aren't "punk" enough. Punk is all about being you, not what MTV tells you to be. And no, having a mohawk doesn't make you punk. Neither does watching SLC Punk.

A punk is a male who has practical jokes played on them or is picked on, usually on a regular basis, by others (punk'd). Another use of the word refers to what older adults might call a male rebel teen or street low-life. A thug is sometimes called a punk.

A movement started in the 70s by bands like the Sex Pistols, Ramomes, Casualties, Clash, Runaways, Dead Kennedys, Mc5, Misfits etc. Grunge, a form of punk include bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains etc. which is also punk sort of. The genre is bassically a faster paced form of rock bordered on rebellion. Now punk is being ruined by bands like Good Charlotte, Blink182, Fall Out Boy, Avril Lavigne etc. who try so much to be punk up to the extent where it becomes incredibly unpunk. In my opinion they should just be themselves and not try so hard. The stereotyped style for the punk rockers include thing and accessories like studded belts, tattoos, multicolored hair,body peircings, mohawks, practically any article of clothing colored black etc. But any true punk rocker would know you don't have to dress the part to be the part. Real punk rock bands are hard to find these days, Green Day sold out when they changed their sound so it could appeall more to the masses.

I'm not a punk, but i do listen to punk rock. All the guys at school say i'm punk because I wear black t-shirts and have black hair, and i could give a fuck less what anybody says. But i'm not punk. And i am not trying to be punk, either. i listen to heavy metal more then my punk rock CDs. Punk is a lifestyle and a type of music. People who are constantly picking on us kids who wear black or look different, including punks, emos, goths, rockers and the like, i belive they are ignorant. Yeah, we hate rap, but you guys claim you all never diss metal or punk. that's bullshit. I challenge every rap fan who reads this to go listen to a Slipknot or Godsmack song, or maybe some Global Threat or the Casulties. If you cringe and bitch though it, then you would understand what we go through when we hear rap, hip hop etc. All i'm trying to say is, Everybody's different. i'm never gonna get along with the cheerleader who sits beside me in 3rd block, and she's never going to go to prom with a guy with eyeliner on, or with a mohawk. It's just how it is. I diss rap, I make fun of it, but you know, who really cares? Go ahead, call me a headbangin' moshing freak, I don't care. Punk is a lifestyle, Hip-Hop is a lifestyle, and Heavy metal, Goth are lifestyles too, and they are not going away anytime soon, so shutr the hell up get used to it.

A type of sub-genre, or even a song, that is most likely antiestablishment, and reckless. The first real punk band,(mainly from their actions, not as much in their music) was The Who. Their most popular nickname is "The Godfathers of Punk". Their first punk song was "My Generation", which had a new sound considering the fact that The Beatles and The Rolling Stones were still writing love songs at the time. The real punk generation developed in the 1980's with bands like Sex Pistols, The Ramones, The Clash, and so on. The real sound to punk developed into fast tempo, aggressive music.

"Dude, The Who was NOT a punk band" "The drummer exploded hotel toilets with [cherry bombs ]and played drums like an engine, even when he added several more to his kit. The guitarist was the first guy to [smash] his instruments, and the bassist was the first to do bass solos." "*shrugs*"

A [punk] is someone who lives the punk lifestyle. A punk wears "whacky" clothes to show their true colors. A punk is generally anti-authority and apolitical. A punk should firmly be proud of who they are. Punks are normally anarchists or nihilists, mostly anti-fascist (unless your a [Nazi] punk, go fuck yourself), sometimes anti-communist, almost always anti-capitalist, sometimes vegetarian, sometimes [straight edge], and often very cool, fun people. Punks are found all over the world. Punks come in all shapes, sizes, colors and creeds. There are all kinds of punks, like [crust punk]s (or crusties), anarchopunks (anarchist punks), street punks (also known as Oi\! Punks, which are commonly anarchists), skate punks, surf punks, and the list goes on. Don't be fooled though, not just anybody can be a punk. It takes someone who truly believes in the punk way of life-someone who knows what it actually is to be a punk, not the crappy bands Hot Topic or MTV is force-feeding you this week. Its more than a type of music and instead of just pretending you like it you have to live. Its more than spelling 'punks' as 'punx'. It takes someone who can take other peoples' shit and criticism without faultering and continuing to be who they are. It takes someone who can be themselves and hold their head high and say, "Hey world\! I am what I am, so fuck you\!" Its more than the Ramones and the Misfits and other mainstream punk bands- punk music is more than Rancid and NOFX. Its more than dressing in bondage pants and patched-up studded leather jackets and having a mohawk or your hair dyed blue. Its something you don't conform to. It is something you just are and believe in. Its more than being anti-authority. Its more than being anti-trendy. ITS A WAY OF FUCKIN LIFE\!

I follow the [punk] lifestyle because its a great life for me. I'd rather be punk than be an [emo] or a [scene kid] because I'm not a trendist giving money or support to companies who don't care about me.

A punk is actually someone who generally does not give a fuck what people think. they Anti-Society and Anti-Goverment. The birth of punk was late 70's and early 80's with such bands as the sex pistols. People tend to think of Blink182 as punk, and they would be right in thinking so. This is because it is. Granted it is a short cut way of saying it, it isn't true punk, punk but is a form of punk. Nowadays people describe for example Blink182 as punk because it is Skater punk rock because it is generally anti-social. Skinheads and Punks do not get on, understand they are not compatable. True Punk isn't dead it's just having a nap, by true punk I mean the main trunk of the tree of punk which spawned branches to things such as skater punk, new age punk ect. It is a generally bad idea to piss an old skool punk because they WILL play by their old skool rules, by not giving a shit and basically to cut it short give you a bad headache the next morning, simply by kicking you in.

A genre of music beginning in the mid 70s, with roots in NYC (the Ramones) and England (the Clash, Sex Pistols). The music is generally fast with an emphasis on the bass, and the lyrics are generally leftist. It went through a revival in the mid 80s, with a new emphasis on melodies, rather than rhythms. It underwent a second revival in the early 90's, helped along by early Green Day (American idiot is not Punk. dookie is.) and the Grunge scene, and the like. Some of the best bassists and lyricists ever have been associated with the punk rock scene. The major label for punk rock today is Epitaph, which has signed bands like NOFX, Rancid, Operation Ivy, Black Flag, and the distillers. All the above keep the origional punk spirit. Bands that do not but are classified as such anyway by the dipshits at major record labels include: Good Charlotte, Blink 182, and Sum 41. The generally accepted culture of "Punk Rockers" Is as follows. Music: Punk. clothes: typically music or anti-establishment oriented, ripped, faded, etc. Pants are loose (but don't have 50'leg openings) to tight (but not emo tight), and are similarly faded jeans or twill pants. Plaid pants are generally considered punk as well. Boots: Chuck Taylors, tough shoes (doc martens, combat boots) Attitude: Fuck the cops, Fuck the government, etc. See SLC Punk.

Punk is not a way you look, it's a state of mind. It's not mohawks and DIY Jackets. Typical Street Punk clothing may include mohawks, liberty spikes, combat boots, bondage pants (usually plaid), and leather or denim jackets. The MOST important thing I will tell you is just because you have a mohawk, doesn't mean you're punk. I myself had a mohawk, but I did it for idols(Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen, etc) not for fashion. Punk is truly a mindset of independence. The freedom America provides should let us do anything, Anarchy if you will. No stereotypes are true. 'A punk has a mohawk and wears combat boots,' Henry Rollins from the legendary Hardcore Punk band 'Black Flag' is very simplistic. Once again punk is not a fashion, but a mindset.

Person 1: Look at that guy\! He's doing whatever he wants to\! Person 2: That's pretty punk. LATER Person 1: That guy is abiding by the rules, but he's got these huge spikes on his leather jacket. Person 2: Poser punk.

Punk shouldn't/doesn't have any real stereotype because deep down, the only way you can be punk is if you follow your own values no matter what anybody may say about it. You don't have to wear studs, dye your hair a weird color or scream anarchy. The same can apply to musicians. It doesn't matter if you want to be underground and rage against society or go mainstream and just sing about life, as long as you don't compromise... and keep to the three-chord structure... then you're good to go. =]

Punk is just being different, not being a follower. But this can be misleading, true punk is INNER. When you see the people with the huge liberty spikes yelling "Anarchy" and shit like that, those are posers. It's not being different as an, what you look like, but what you feel, who you are, and not giving a shit whether people accept you or not.

Was a movement started in the 70s by bands like the Ramones, Clash, Sex Pistols, Casualties, Generation X, Mc5, Iggy and The Stooges etc. It was started in New York and made it's way to the UK around the year of 1975. It is now being ruined by bands like Good Charlotte, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance etc. These people are more focused on looking the part than on the music and message that comes along with it. Maybe if they chilled out for awhile and were themselves they could actually be put into a position to put out an actual punk album. Other people probably wont agree with me but I Think Sum41 is a pretty decent "punk" band. Listen to the lyrics to Fat Lip and dare not to call them punk. Anyways, the stereotyped style includes things like - Mohawks - Multi-colored hair - Tight jeans or ripped jeans - Studded belts - Peireced body parts - Tattoos You don't even have to look the part to be punk you just have to like the music and have the signature attitude, - Defiant - Politcally outspoken - Anti-establishment other traits I cannot think of.

The Runaways were a great punk band, but are never credited for it.

People throw this word around a lot to define a guy who has said or done something to piss them off. For the record, in such a situation a "punk" would be a guy who verbally disrespects or deliberately commits a menacing act toward another. However, he is not a "punk" until that person calls him out as in an invitation to fight and the so called "punk" backs down. At this point he truly is a PUNK\!

The only way to demonstrate punk behavior is to call the person out after an act of disrespect has been committed. If he is a coward and backs down, he is branded a punk. "Jimmy is a punk because he wouldn't fight Johnny." * PLEASE NOTE this entry IS NOT meant to encourage or incite violence toward others as it is meant to clarify a common misconception among people who frequently use this word without regard to it's proper meaning and within the right context.

A fashion and genre of music originating from the mid 70s, thats all it is, it's never been truly anti establishment as it was all just a marketing ploy from the start, the Sex Pistols were essentially just an advertisement for Malcom Mclarens and Vivienne Westwoods fashion line, so in the end everyones a conformist who has bought into the rebellion and "anti-establishment"

do i really need an example? it's blatantly obvious punk's not "anti-establishment" as many people claim it to be, but people have the wool pulled over their eyes it's good music though

A punk is a member of the "punk movement" from the 70's and 80's. These kids generally dressed in holey jeans and dirty t-shirts with old sneakers, mainly because they couldn't afford better apparal. Punks were largly associated with the genre of rock and roll that was named for there movement. Punk bands were made up of punks and the music displayed the themes of the punk movement. Punks generally believed in a few common principals: 1. They commonly felt that there was no future for them, and that they would end up in the same poverty that they had been born into. This usually caused them to act in somewhat destructive ways. They usually were angry at society for that they could not move up in the social ranks. 2. Punks were not in favor of the goverment. They felt that the government was unfair to people of there stature. Sinse they felt so against the goverment they usually acted out in ways opposite of what was politically correct. 3. Punkers generally liked things perceived as negative such as violance, anarchy, drugs, sex, and things of that type. They rejected the norm of society, probably because the norm of society had rejected them. 4. They enjoyed punk music and dressed poorly for the reasons previously stated.

Kid: Dad, you're from the 80's, what's a REAL punk? Dad: Well I was a punk back in my day Kid: Whatever dad, your hairs not green. Plus, you were POOR when you were a kid. You could NEVER afford the sick clothes all the punk kids wear.

punk is something that was born around the 70s. any bands coming out since then, really arent punk. avril lavigne is not punk, less than jake is not punk, static thought is not punk. the real punks came up around the 70s. bands such as, social unrest, circle jerks, the exploited, the mutants, flipper, the clash and the ramones, are all real. some of these bands are still around, keeping it alive. any band, any person coming up now and calling themselves punk, are only trying to re-create something that can't be re-created. most of them dont even realize this. alot of people think that because the sex pistols came out around this time, they are punk. the truth is, they are posers. they might even be the first punk rock posers actually.(im not too sure because i wasnt born yet, and its highly possible that other people back then thought punk rock was "cool" and wanted to try it out). the sex pistols are probably the ones who set the trend for everybody. such as crazy hair(not mohawks, because that was a native american tribe i believe they were called the mohicans?) chains, torn up clothing, etc. also there are even people out there that go as far as fighting to prove themselves. these may get labeled as "gutter punks". they believe that you have to win a fistfight for everything. literally everything. such as your mohawk? your leather jacket? your white laces on your combat boots? i thought punk rock was supposed to be about no rules. call me a pussy because i prefer not to fight. but next time you pass judgment on another for this same reason, arent you a pussy because you're doing what you're told instead of living free?

\#1.) "wow, sid is viciously cool because he has crazy hair. i wanna look like him\!" this person is a poser. \#2.) "man, ive never seen another one like you. you're different but thats cool" allthough he'll probably tell you hes not a punk, he might be. \#3.) "so johnny, if i win this fight, i get my mohawk right?" win or lose the fight, this person wants a mohawk

Punk music is great and all, but that depends on yr opinion and stuff... So far as clothes, nobody could ever care less, and if they're the type who DO care so much what others go about wearing, and stereotype, they're not really worth considering, ever. Don't worry about them. Punk. will. always live. so long as there is someone standing up and fighting for what they believe. It's a lifestyle. You don't take bullshit. That's all there really is to it. No matter what you might stand for, if yr standing up strong, not budging and basically being annoyingly difficult to those who oppose you, you can be (at least a bit) punk. Believe it or not, there aren't a CRAPLOAD of peope like that, but they're there.

Actually, mohawks are pretty awesome. I suppose they're some landmark, and y'know, when you think bout it, not many people like 'em. Survive the stares, rude accusitions bout worshipping the devil, even retaliate.... every con that comes with that awesome 'do, keep it (not just for the couple months that it's a trend) and yr punk.

Like Good Charolette, Emo bands that claim to be punk, Blink 182, Newfound Glory, etc. Mainstream and shitty.

Okay being a punk is not conforming to mainstream and being yourself. Punk is being what you wanna be. If you think it looks cool WEAR IT. You do not need to have a mohawk or liberty spikes you need to have different hair to everyone else. The most important part of punk is listening to punk rock music and also metal. Bands like "the sex pistols", "the exploited", "Vice squad" and "The ramones". Bands like "Avril Lavigne", "Good charlotte" and "blink 182" are not punk. Then there is politics. Having a tattoo with the cross sickel and hammer if you live in the US is good. It doesnt matter if you not a commie you just need to shock people. Basically do, say and listen to things that will shock people

The original meaning of Punk was to be the submissive participant in the prison shower block. Aka to get fucked in the ass. Then it was the name of an american music fanzine giving coverage to the very earliest punk and proto-punk bands. This then became the name of that music scene and the name stuck. Punks will typically be thinking in a different way to the rest of society for one reason or another and the scene ranges from extreme right-wing bands with neo-nazi politics such as Skrewdriver to the left-wing anarchic punk of Subhumans (bloody good live) or Crass. Most punk tends towards a more left-wing agenda, whilst not quite begging for a social revolution, rather, evolution such as The Clash. Whilst the original scene was open and supportive (it would have died without reggae) it has now become elitist, petulant and to an extent soulless. Benji Madden said that Punk gave him a place to go where he felt like he belonged...which really isn't what it's about. You don't really 'become' punk it's just something that is there with you, I suppose. Sub-genres of punk include: Street, Oi\!, Hardcore, Pop-Punk and Ska-Punk. Unfortunately, in the 80s the US scene spawned a couple of extreme bullshit punk offshoots i.e. Emo and Straightedge. Neither of which deserve your time. Here are some punk bands: The Clash, Subhumans, Dead Kennedys, Rancid, Guttermouth, The Unseen, NOFX, The Damned, Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Operation Ivy.

Punk is a subculture that was originally begun with the objective of being anti-establishment, but is now actually the mainstream trend, thus rendering the very principle of punk null and void. What it takes to be a 'real' punk is unknown because every punk thinks every other punk is a poser. Punk is often associated with anarchy, leading stores like Hot Topic to slap the anarchy symbol on everything possible, when, in fact, anarchy is the opposition to things like government and capitialism, etc., so to be a real anarchist, one would have to not buy things at the fucking mall, thus making 98% of punks under 18 total dumbasses. Punk as a fashion style has been ground into the ground so hard I never want to see a studded belt ever again and as a musical form, punk has been cut up and incorporated into so many other styles, it's hard to find a 100% punk band anymore. But none of the following are punk bands or artists: Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Ashlee Simpson, Avril Lavigne, or any band ever called emo ever.

"Omg, this Ramones tee I'm buying at the Buckle in the lower of my local mall next to the Gap is, like, so punk\!"

a crazy awsome movement that began in the 70s. originating in the uk and us. it was all about unity non-conformity and of course, anarchy(the lack off any government). a common misconception is that the chlothes make the punk but fashion has nothin to do with it. thats why hot topic is not punk(among other things). because the wold is so superfitial the movement has just as many posers as it does true punks which is why its so hard to make any actual changes. the last aspect i will mention is that any true punk will stand for what they belive in despite what anyone else thinks, some will even willingy fight for it.

Punk is an attitude. The attitude is I am unique, I'm not a follower. I do what I like because that's ME. Mostly punks have had an anti big government message. The True punks of the 70's: Ramones, Clash, Melvin's they didn't wear the clothes the punks do today. The look you see now is 80's "NewWave": zippers, pins, mo or fauhawks and bleached or crayola colored hair. True punks just exist the don't try to stand out or cause trouble. Punks are peaceful creatures that want equality for all. When I see the punks of today with the anti-capitalism message wearing the HotTopic or Angry, Young and Poor clothes I laugh my a$$ off. Guess what droog? you've just put more money in to the capitalism machine\! Think about it\! Todays Punks (teenie boppers under age 21) are either having an identity crisis or just like to be seen. aka POSER.

Punk music was pretty much visibly started in NYC in the 1970's by The New York Dolls, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, and the Ramones. It caught on to London, with the Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Buzzcocks, etc. The lifestyle is often careless, happy, you do whatever you want. These people do not care. If they just wanna punch some random person on the street, they'll do it. Drugs played a big part in punk in the past. Violence is a huge part. Punk pretty much died out when the Ramones broke up for good in the mid 90s. Now the only punk things are the old punk bands. And the few people that still live the lifestyle. It doesn't matter how you dress, much.

(Random girl): OMG\! I'm SOOO punk\! I have Converse, artificially store-ripped $60 jeans, and a shirt that says something like "God save the Queen" on it or whatever. And I LOVE Good Charlotte and Simple Plan\! (Real punk person): *punches random girl in the face without saying a word* Punk: The Ramones. The Sex Pistols. Johnny Thunders. Not punk: Good Charlotte. Simple Plan. Kelly Clarkson. (You can't mosh to Kelly Clarkson\!\!\!)

punk isn't just a genre of music it's a way of life where you don't care who is looking do you want you want to and you don't take shit from other people. punks also believe in war and fighting even over the littlest things\!\! a good fight always hurts something, but screw it who cares\!\! DECLARE WAR ON THE ORDINARY\!

1. Those girls who are like, "I'm fucking cool and if you don't think so I don't care." Well you obviously DO care if you have to tell everyone about it. And calling yourself cool is so not cool. Didn't you learn anything in middle school? 2. The dancing like in Ashlee Simpson's La La video when she's in the parking lot wearing that white tanktop. You know, the kind that looks like you're about to fall flat on your face. And the shoes. And the pants\! Man, what is this in thing about not looking like you have any curves? And if a person were to ask "Is that person a guy or a girl?", some snooty person would go "Does it matter?" Yeah buddy. It does matter. 3. Trying to look like you're poor and you shop at the thirft store. People actually spend a bunch of money to look this way. Is it another supposedly open-minded thing? Trying to say that it doesn't matter if you're poor? Cause y'all seem pretty snobby and judgmental for people who see what's inside everyone else\! 4. The whole thing where people do stupid things and act stupid ways and then get mad at you if you say anything. "I'M COOL AND IF YOU DON'T THINK SO I DON'T CARE\!" No, actually, you're lame. You get straight A's but then you put 7 cookies all on one side of the pan and waste a bunch of electricity baking them. "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK\! I'M COOL\! DO YOU HEAR ME??" 5. This whole indie thing\! It's not indie if you're trying\! Do you not realize how mainstream you are being with the pants and the shoes and the hair? And its hilarious how people will join those rating communities and in their applications write "I don't care if you don't like me\!" And if your music isn't indie music then they don't accept you. So the people try really hard ot get the most indie bands they can so the other people will think they listen to cool music. Yeah. Not indie. Sorry. 6. Back to the baking thing. Have you ever gone to a coffee shop and noticed how they throw a bunch of chocolate chips on the tops of the muffins and call them "chocolate chip muffins"? And you know people are going "We don't need factory-made, brand name food," all snooty-like. You know what? I'm not even gonna get into this one. I think I'm just gonna buy a bunch of those muffins and shove them down Indie Guy's throat one after another while screaming, "I don't care what you think\!"

That girl with the hair like a rooster and the too-small jacket thinks she's a punk\!

A loud and stupid form of rock music generally involving people who want to be "different". Stuck in one mindset, overly loud and opinionated so they can be accepted by their peers.

Style of music that died in about 1996 but ask any little 14 yr old and they'll tell you different. Its pretty much a style where the guitarist plays really really fast and the bass player just figures something out to do because it doesnt matter, because you cant hear it anyways. punk fags are known for beating up little kids for their lunch money, and cant pick on anyone their opwn size.

AT THE JOB Emo kid: c'mon man stop f*ckin around, get the work done i wanna get outta here. Punk fag: What are you gonna do you cry in a corner and cut yourself? Emo kid: well at least im not going to go beat up some little kid for his lunch money, because i can't beat up sombody within eight years of my age.

Punk is a lifestyle. Punk rock, anarcho punk, crust punk, pop punk, and '77 punk are genres. Do not let anyone tell you that punk is a music genre. Especially if this person considers Hot Topic to be a place to buy punk stuff. It is, in fact, the very thing that Johnny Rotten and all the other early punks were rebelling against. Johnny Rotten may very well have been in the first punk rock band. The Sex Pistols came out of nowhere to shock the world with their first single, "Anarchy In The UK", completely taking the music industry for a roller coaster ride. Johnny's US equivilent would probably have to be Jello Biafra, lead singer of the Dead Kennedys. Although Jello sang of revolution, similar to The Clash, the two had alot in common. Neither one seemed to have much disernable singing talent, but they both had more than enough to say. Nowadays, punk is divided amongst many smaller factions. Usually, these punk factions (such as [street punk]) hate each other, defeating the whole purpose of the movement. They all want change, and think they'll do it by bickering amongst themselves because of whose band can play the most power chords in a minute. So, for this reason, many people say punk is dead. Or at least deserves to die.

"Punk is my favorite musical genre\!" "NO, stupid, punk is a lifestyle. Punk rock is a musical genre."

A punk usually refers to a boy that is a weak wimp that is easily bullied. A punk can also be a school bully's slave.

School Bully: (Grabs the weaker boy by the front of his shirt and pulls him into a bathroom stall.) It's pay day punk. Cough up your lunch money. Punk: I don't have any money today. School Bully: Punk, you know you gotta pay everyday or else. (The school bully forces the punk to his knees in front of the toilet and puts the punk's head in the toilet and gives him a swirly.) School Bully: Now punk, fork over that dollar. (The punk pulls a dollar out of his shoe and hands it to the school bully.) Now, where's my math homework punk? (The punk digs in his pocket and hands the school bully his homework.) Punk: Can I go now? School bully: Listen punk, you're my punk and you'll always be my punk. When we are in college, you'll still be forking over your lunch money to me and doing all of my homework each and every night. When we are out of college, you'll still be forking over your paycheck to me every week punk. Guess who will be doing my taxes every year punk? punk: Me? School Bully: That's right punk. Let's see, my car is really dirty right now. If only I had a punk to wash and wax my car. Wait a minute, I do have a punk to wash and wax my car. Hey punk, I want you to wash and wax my car starting today. Punk: Do I have to? School Bully: (The school bully punches the punk in the eye and the punk falls to the bathroom floor.) Punk, you need to be taught a lesson. (The bully undoes his belt buckle as he's standing over his punk.) Time to break my punk in prison style.

A person who will say they are a [non-conformist] even though they indeed are very much [conformists]. They wear hardcore band shirts, go to shows, hate the government because some punk band told them to, if it's a female expect them not to shave or wear make up. Basically be feminists.

They like to dress in Urban Outfitters and American Apparel even though they all preach the need about non-conformity. They will listen to all the "cool" punk music, for example Andrew Jackson Jihad, and basically just think they are the coolest motha fuckas in town. Keep in mind they are all just huge hypocrites and they want what everyone else wants, to fit in. Contrary to what they say, like always. Basically just a group of [hipsters] that are good at following [trends]. They like to look dirty, dye their hair, and get their septums pierced. They ride [fixies], are into DIY(do it yourself), saving the environment, and veganism. Lets not forget they all claim to be [straight edge], even though they aren't. It's just what the punk bands tell them to do. "Punk" bands: Spoonboy, Johnny Hobo, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Ghost Mice, Against Me, and Paul Baribeau are some examples. You might hear them say up the punks, well FUCK THE PUNKS\!
