A community portal about Punk rock with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Punk rock is an anti-establishment rock music genre and movement that emerged in the 1970s. While the genre had been preceded by various forms of protopunk music from the 1960s and the early 1970s, the genre's immediate origins lie in a number of artists that emerged from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, around 1974 and 1975. As exemplified by bands such as the Ramones, Sex Pistols, The Damned, and The Clash, punk rock rejected many of the perceived excesses of 1970s rock music and placed emphasis on music that was fast, short in duration, and simple, often accompanied by a political or social outlook. The punk rock movement also encompasses a punk subculture, involving youthful aggression, specific clothing styles, ideologies, and a DIY attitude.
