Punk lost it's direction when people started considering it a Genre that had certain criteria... Punk is not a trend... it's NOT conforming to a sound... Nirvana was punk because during the reign of the hair-metal bands he decided not to go with the trend...
Punk will rise again... Just look at what's on the radio and MTV now... It's a bunch of trendy little whiners that focus more on their IMAGE than writing compelling music... even their music writing is becoming too f*cking trendy... if i hear one more "three days grace" sounding vocalist i'm going to shoot myself... same goes with the tween bands that wear more make-up than my sister... we're just repeating the 80's with all this glam-rock... soon a band will rise and they won't need the make-up to attract fans... their music will bring people to their feet again and all these sh*t bands will have nobody to imitate... cuz how do you imitate "good music" with no real talent...
:eek: THANK YOU!! this has been, by far, the responce that i was looking for and although i don't mind those trendy sounds, i do want that new sound. if you have recommondations for me shoot.
