I agree with this thread to an extent. Blink 182, All Time Low, and whatever else is considered punk is definitely not punk. I don't agree, however, that punk died in the 70s. I know a lot of great punk bands that came after the 70s, like Left Alone, Dropkick Murphys, 7 Seconds, I could go on and on. I think that the mainstream 'punk' is what's giving today's punk a bad name, you just have to search a bit more for the good stuff.
