I suppose they were punk for the 1st album, after that though they were pure rock 'n' roll. I love the Clash but I like the Ramones best for sentimental reasons when it comes to Punk. I think that was punk in the way you described it, not Green Day (which I used to like a little, but really...punk is dead now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I've seen this thread and ignored it up to now, but it keeps persisting here, it's like an itch that just won't scratch, so I've finally come to contribute as best I can in an effort to perhaps ward if off. I wanted to make a salient point of course, a statement on her worthiness in music maybe, but now that I'm here I realise I don't know this girl at all except for seeing her picture, so I find now I can only be superficial. So here goes... I'd do her!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are lots of great punk bands. I was going to include a clip from Black Flag but the ones I found were pretty shitty quality. I could have included some Bad Religion too.

ILSnwdog Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Hey...this is fun...Does Arvil's work sound like this? Here's a great band out of DC. Is Helmet considered punk?

Enemy Within 77 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 After The Ramones, The Damned are the best punk band. They're still touring and putting out great new stuff too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilby Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Grew up listening to The Damned and The Ramones. Still like them although I do think the whole punk thing was hype/media. The motto was out with the old, in with the new. Yep, B side to the first Damned single was a cover of Help by the Beatles! Few names missing Siouxsie and the Banshees The Exploited Gang of 4 Dead Kennedys Toy dolls Vice Squad Plasmatics Magazine Two of the best UK punk songs period, The Ruts Staring at the rude boys Babylon's burning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Let's use the argument from the is it metal thread to explain that the definition of punk has changed and that Avril IS punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilby Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Redefine the word punk, well that is very "punk" in itself ! Punk was all about rebelling against establishment and authority, freewill, pushing boundaries. Many early punks used music, lyrics, poetry and art as a way to express their frustrations against social injustices, political corruption, commentaries of life of the working classes in deprived areas. Avril, signed at the age of 15 to a major label and sold as a product for a teenage market. Uses her name and commercial success to further expand into fashion and fragrances. Yep. Punk has been redifined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
