Punk
punk started out in the u.k in the early seventies as a movement tore volt against the system and the dressing,spikes and mohawks are all part of the attitude and culture of punks.
the early punk bands who started it were the exploited,crass,conflict,discharge,buzzcocks,the clash,the stooges,subhumans,chaos uk,ramones and misfits. they diffrent sub genres of punk,anarcho or crust punk-bands who play fast and kinda like thrash whose lyrics write on human rights,war,governments and politics. punk rock bands are normally more melodic and fast. later on in the early 80, a new sub genre of punk came about called oi! music,these skinhead bands write about beer,football and the working class movement in u.k at that time,bands who play oi are the business,sham 69,4 skins,oi polloi,uk subs and the oppressed,oi music has a more melodic feel and sing along choruses. the true fact that many bands from other genres were influenced by punk,like slayer have done a cover of exploited song,metallica had cover misfits and most music that comes out today actually borrow a lot from the above named bands who are the pioneers of punk and oi. to all punks and skins(the original punks and skins from uk) i salute them for bringing wonderful culture music and message to our country.like expolited once said "Punks Not Dead!"
hope my humble opinion will give more knwoledge of the punk scene,cheers!
