My views:
Punk in it's original form was about a DIY attitude, and a rejection of the necessity for traditional musical talent. I can happily enjoy music on both sides of the divide, but many musos dismiss punk as a talentless racket.
In my view punk returned rock music to the energy & excitement of the birth of rock & roll, and proved that ideas & attitude are at least as important to good music as musical prowess.
