Punk Rock Music

Punk sprung from the legacy of 60s bands such as the Velvet Underground, was pioneered by bands like the Misfits and the Ramones and then brought into the public consciousness by the mid-70s wave headed by the Sex Pistols, the Clash and the Damned. Since then it has split off into a variety of subgenres such as hardcore, street punk and pop punk.

Who was Tom Sawyer's girlfriend?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

He likes Becky Thatcher. They get 'engaged' the next day, but Tom ruins it by saying he was already 'engaged' with Amy Laurence. Towards the end of the book, they make up and get stuck in a cave together and then Becky feels she is going to die, but doesn't because Tom finds a way out and that's about it. I just gave u a summary of Tom's love life in this book! You should be thankful!

'Is it weird that you listen to punk music but you don't act or dress punk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

for some people it is weird but its not for me..i have couple friends who listen to punk but don't really dress like that and definitely not act like one..so i think it is the matter of person ..someone like some type of music but doesn't like the style that goes with it and that's OK... THERE IS NO WAY TO DRESS PUNK UNLESS YOU ARE A POSER IT'S YOUR OWN STYLE..and i have ton's of friends who are skatepunk and crust punk and we dress as diffrent as possible..the point of the punk subcultre is to be as diffrent as possible...to rebel against society..to do things your own way...bottom line is if you listen to punk then you are a punk as long as you don't copy other people's style and have your own unique style..

What are the top 10 punk bands?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are plenty of rock bands out there who deserve to be called top.Bands from American Metal scene to Seattle grunge scene can be considered rock artists.How a band performs their live concerts a crucial element to define a band as a good band or great one.Led Zeppelin were considered to be one of the most notorious on stage bands and are described as “second to no one”.Also there are other bands like Black Sabbath; who supposedly invented the entire genre heavy metal, Deep Purple; who are known to be the loudest band, The Ramones; known for iconic attitudes and wild stage presence, The Misfits; with their infamous stage attires and spooky theme, captured the hearts of the music fans and are hailed to be one the greatests. It is surely hard to narrow it down to top five among all the greatest bands but we can surely list them by their music and live concerts.After all, this is the artist at their most raw, and their most real.

What punk band is the best?

If your looking for true DIY hardcore punk instead of the mainstream, industry influenced "punk" that people speak of today, check out Common Enemy, The Imposters, Bad Reaction, Minutemen, Bad Brains, The Germs, Gorilla Biscuits, Uniform Choice, Stalag 13, Circle One, Minor Threat, Project X, Stomped On Sight, SSD, Black Flag, Teen Idles, Government Issue, Gang Green, JFA, SOA, COP, ... Some not so hardcore bands like Dag Nasty, Agent Orange or Adolescents may interest you. Id also check out some indie punk labels, just to name a few: SST, Flat Black Records, Overdose on Records, Dischord. There isn't necessarily an answer to your question. I would try to find something that I'm into (hopefully underground) and get involved. Start a punk band and just have fun.

I drink from a well of rage.

I feed off the weakness, with all my love.

Call up the captain (HEY HEY!)

Asked by Wiki User

It first started with the bands like Ramones in the late 70's and early 80's but the punk style became huge in early 2000's. Stuff like Baggy Dickies, crazy hair, liberty state and Mohawks.

Is there a place to shop in the Orlando Florida area were you can find punk clothes for a cheap price?

User Avatar

Asked by Devendeven123

It depends if you want to actually be punk, or just look punk. If you are just going for a look, then you can pick up all the cookie cutter designs at Hot Topic at the mall in Orlando. If you are going more for the punk lifestyle, then hit up the local thrift stores.

-------------------

...Actually, if the previous commenter had bothered to do even a smidgen of research, they'd have been able to direct you to Static, an awesome store in Winter Park (which as an Orlando resident, you know is just outside of Orlando) which has been in operation for over a decade. It used to be off Mills Ave. near Chamberlin's Market and P.F. Chang's, but it has since moved to the Winn Dixie Plaza on the corner of University and Goldenrod. The store space is a little smaller, but it's still got the same awesome punk clothes, same used vinyl collection, same accessories. I just visited there a couple of weeks ago (I'm writing this as of Oct. 2011).

You might also try Obscuria. They are only online, but they are located in Orlando, and the owners are really nice. The items are more gothic than punk and it tends to run more towards accessories like makeup, jewelry, and purses, but try it anyway, you might find something you like. GothicPlus is kind of the same deal, online, but they are located in Sanford, FL.

If you don't mind traveling a bit, head to Ybor City in Tampa. There are tons of vintage clothing and thrift stores that regularly receive punk clothes to sell.

Good luck!

What is a good high-class punk snare drum to buy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pearl, Mapex, and Sonor are all good brands of snares.

- - - - -

There are a LOT of good snares out there. The three mentioned above are good moderately priced snares. Tama is also a good snare, as is Yamaha. If you want to spend stupid amounts of money, go with Craviotto--his snares don't sound like anyone else's because of how they're made.

Also, I got a "Peace" snare drum, they've got a heck of nice sound for the price. Plus the thing i love about snare drums and almost all drums is that you don't have to spend a butt load of money on an amazing snare but you can pretty much usually tune them to sound great.

What are positive aspects of punk rock?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Punk is at essence a violent explosion of self expression, especially those more volatile emotions; love, hate, anger, sadness, envy, suspicion, etc...

Because of this, defining Punk is impossible. Because it changes for everyone. violence and chaos and mohawks aside; punk can be quite beautiful. The biggest positive message that punk can send is to question everything and not blindly follow the leader. However, this is not always true. Punk is a very inconsistent topic with a lot of self evident redundancy's and misconceptions. If you don't think your a punker you probably arn't, and if you walk around like your fresh of the set of SLC then your probably a poser. The point is that punk is what punk is, punk. Its completely insane and riddled with malarcy. But at the end of the day punk can teach us that maybe we should question everything. Maybe everything is malarcy. maybe this response is malarcy. Maybe I'm not even a punker, maybe I'm a government agent trying to diverge you from punk subconsciously. See? Totally insane, but what if it's right?

Who invented Punk Rock The Ramones or Sex Pistols?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vivienne Westwood...Negative. Vivienne Westwood helped to invent the Sex Pistols, but even they were later-comers to the punk rock game. Depending on one's interpretation punk rock was invented by one of the following bands:

The Velvet Underground, WhiteLight/WhiteHeat

Iggy Pop and the Stooges, self-titled

The MC5, self-titled

The New York Dolls, self-titled

Televison, Marquee Moon

The Ramones, self-titles

All six of those albums were released before the Sex Pistoles released Nevermind the Bollocks in 1977. In fact, The Velvet Underground released WhiteLight/WhiteHeat in 1968.
