musically medyo naay gamay na elements sa punk ang simple plan..pero kn essence sa punk rock hisgutan zero gyud..they should label it into something more appropriete like pacute punk...product ra na sila sa mga money hungry record comp..nigawas na sila pag-uso gyud sa mga nuskool na punks when blink 182 is in the height of their carrier..
dili ko angayan diri nga thread kay tanan klase nga punk music ganahan jud ko...ambot lang kaha ngano.lahi2 jud tag gusto.
I love punk music, and by punk I mean The Clash, *** Pistols, Iggy Pop, The Ramones, The Jam, Patti Smith, The Replacements, Buzzcocks, Dead Kennedys, Husker Du and some early Green Day and The Offspring.
ako dili ko ganahan ug punk ewww kaluud. naay original ramones mania na cd sa amo-a kinsay ganahan. haha![]()
Punk is more of an attitude and movement than the genre itself.
It was birthed out of dissatisfaction of the long jams and the multiple photocopies of Led Zeppelin and long guitar solos and complicated arrangements. They just want their rock 'n roll as simple, raw, and with soul.
So they decided to double the beat of rockabilly until they arrived on their own. And while those long jams and progressive rock often talks about the outside world and fantasies, they long for some reality in their music. So they began writing whatever is affecting their "current" reality.
Of course the aggressive style already existed as early as 1966 but it wasn't called punk back then (nowadays they're referred to as proto-punk).
According to The Ramones drummer Tommy Ramone, "In its initial form, a lot of [1960s] stuff was innovative and exciting. Unfortunately, what happens is that people who could not hold a candle to the likes of Hendrix started noodling away. Soon you had endless solos that went nowhere. By 1973, I knew that what was needed was some pure, stripped down, no bull**** rock 'n' roll."
John Holmstrom, founding editor of Punk magazine, recalls feeling "punk rock had to come along because the rock scene had become so tame that [acts] like Billy Joel and Simon and Garfunkel were being called rock and roll, when to me and other fans, rock and roll meant this wild and rebellious music."[4] In critic Robert Christgau's description, "It was also a subculture that scornfully rejected the political idealism and Californian flower-power silliness of hippie myth."[5] Patti Smith, in contrast, suggests in the documentary 25 Years of Punk that the hippies and the punk rockers were linked by a common anti-establishment mentality.
And that anti-establishment mentality became the precursor for the DIY movement. But there are also bands who were releasing DIY albums because no label would touch them.
So saying that, i guess modern day punk rockers today are those who are dissatisfied with the lameness and greediness of mainstream rock .
So in saying that, i don't classify bands like Simple Plan( and their countless cousins) as a punk band. And neither are those bands who are making music for all the wrong reasons.
So is modern day Green Day still as punk band? For me they are still even though they evolved musically. It's just part of the band's artistic growth.
i like almost all the bands mentioned above but here's, in my own opinion, my favorite punk rockers. They're music resembles nothing like The Ramones or Green Day but their spirit clearly evokes the attitude;
Vampire Weekend
British Sea Power
Pains of Being Pure At Heart
Crystal Stills
Esterlyn
Lucero
The Gaslight Anthem
Social Code
Flogging Molly
Fleet Foxes
Dropkick Monkeys
The Almost
Thrice
and Showbread
of these bands, i believe Esterlyn, Showbread, The Almost, and Thrice are the closest to today's "pop-punk/modern rock" sound.
Of older bands, i like Husker Du (i dunno how to type the exact letters), The Replacements, Green Day, Dogwood, MxPx, Bad Religion (i don't agree with their views but their courage to speak is a great punk rock example), One Bad Pig(who introduced Johnny Cash to the punk rock world by having him sang in their remake of Man In Black), The Ramones,The Huntingtons, and Lifesavers.
