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.

Do you have to be in the punk or rock scene to be straight edge?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. There's not one cookie cutter type of straight edge lifestyle, although many choose to abstain from drug use and to varying degrees, recreational sex or meat consumption. It's origins are usually ascribed to the punk and hardcore scene, but there are straight edgers into techno, industrial, metal and other kinds of music. Not all straight edgers are vegetarians or vegans either. There are also straight edgers who are atheists, agnostics or theists. If you like the philosophies of the straight edge lifestyle, why not practice it in your personal life? Buddhism is a philosophy as well, and Buddhists aren't expected to like the same music/books/movies.

What year did punk rock come?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is no one answer to this, as artists such as The Stooges, Patti Smith, MC5, and The New York Dolls incorporated elements of punk into their music, but are generally regarded as "proto punk," meaning that they influenced the punk genre, but came before it and are not a part of it.

The Ramones, formed in 1974, are widely regarded as the first American punk band.
The Sex Pistols, formed in 1975, are considered the first British punk band.

What is the difference between punk and metal?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most people can tell the difference but I would suggest (as a very broad generalisation) punk tends to be faster and the lyrics more political whereas metal tends to be heavier and slower with more solos but like I say, some punk bands combine metal styles and some metal bands use punk drum beats/lyrical styling etc

What were the first British punk groups?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Ramones and The MC5.

Answer

This is a tricky question. As different people have different definitions of what punk rock is and when/where it began, there's no answer that everyone, or even mostly everyone, can agree on.

But I would say that the first punk bands ever were The Stooges and The MC5 in Detroit. A few years later, the first New York City punk band was The New York Dolls. Some might say it was The Velvet Underground, but this is a difficult opinion to maintain when you consider that lead singer/songwriter Lou Reed has consistently denied that his band was a punk band.

Either way, the Ramones formed in 1974, and the New York Dolls formed in 1971 (and The Stooges and The MC5 formed like, 5 or 6 years before that), so I don't see how The Ramones can be called the first punk band, unless you don't consider the Dolls or the Stooges to be "true" punk bands, which is a conversation that belongs on the Discussion page, not in this Answer box.

What NYC club is said to be the birthplace of punk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I think you must be talking about CBGB's (full name CBGB-OMFUG, which stands for Country BlueGrass Blues & Other Music for Upstanding Gormandizers). That's the legendary club where some of the first punk rock bands -- like the New York Dolls, the Ramones, the Dead Boys, Television, the Heartbreakers, the Dictators, etc., etc. -- played back in the seventies. There was another club that all these bands played at called Max's Kansas City, but it closed in 1981. CBGB's kept on going strong until 2006, until its owner, Hilly Kristal (who died of cancer in 2007), finally gave it up to CBGB Holdings Ltd. Supposedly the problem started with complaints from Kristal's landlord regarding unpaid rent.

I have included links to two articles regarding the closing of CBGB's, and the rather ugly court battle between Kristal's next of kin over his estate.

Asked by Wiki User

Because it's awesome. People might think punk is about the clothes, the fashion or whatever, but it is about attitude and standing for what u believe in. It had a big influence on people. The punk bands were telling us don't take crap from nobody. punk was the best thing that ever happened in the 70's. It got people a chance to be themselves and not caring what people thought. Punk was incredible, brilliant, and rebellious.

Who influenced punk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Punk was born because of a few reasons.

1- Punk was born out of the rebelion against the music scene of the time. Bands like the Ramones and the Sex Pistols hated the fact that bands like Simon and Garfunkel were considered rock n roll.

2- Punk bands also refused to dissconect themselves from their fans and sign with major record labels. That gave punk the raw sound that we have all come to know and love.

3- Alot of early punk was influenced by 60's garage bands. Also alot of punk bands grew up listening to bands like the stooges and the mc5 who were early forms of punk rock.

4- When the Ramones released their first album they influenced alot of punk bands. Many punk musicians taught themselves to play by listening to the Ramones, and that gave alot of punk bands their fast paced loud sound.

How do you write a pop punk song?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You basically just need to think about the society, the things around you, like people, politics, the things that are happening in your country, etc. It shouldn't take you that long to write a punk rock song. All you need, is to write something from your own experiences, for example, whether you are angry at the society, if something is annoying you, if you want to change something, make anarchy, etc. A punk rock song can be about anything, basically. If you listen to some punk rock songs, you will see that the lyrics speak about freedom, anarchy, society, politics, love, doing what you want, etc.

Are goth and emo people the same?

User Avatar

Asked by Gaby241

No. The punk movement began in the 70's and 80's, with music with a political anarchist feel.

While Emo's look similar, Emo culture emerged in the 21st century, and is darker and more depressive, death obsessed feel.

How does one use his or her false vocal cords for screaming?

User Avatar

Asked by ZAKxOFxTHExDEAD

First you need to know if your cut out for screaming. If you smoke, stop otherwise screaming will never be easy and can be quite painful. Next, do you sing? Sometimes screaming can take away from you singing abilities, although that has never been proved. Last, do you have breathing or respiratory problems like asthma? Screaming takes a lot of air when your in your first year or so of practice, meaning your breathing heavy after songs.

If your okay to be screaming, heres how you do it.

You start, every single time when your learning, by warming up. Anything will do, just get your throat ready. Find the warmup that suits you, I would recommend pressing the keys of a piano in one octave, c to b flat, and go up and down twice without going into falsetto (the voice you would use to do a mario impression).

Then you need water, which can be any temperture but preferably lukewarm just because cold or chilled water can constrict your vocal chords which is okay when your good at screaming but can be painful when your learning.

Then, and you have probably heard this millions of times if you looked at youtube tutorials, you breathe in through, not into your diaghragm. Ait goes to your lungs. Always has, always will. By diaghragmatic breathing I mean breathing in so that your stomach pushes out. A lot of people say that when they do that their stomach goes inwards. If that happens then either your doing it wrong or something is medically out of place. Figure out which.

Once you've done that, learn how to push the air out using your diaghragm. I cant help you with this, its something you have to just work out for yourself.

Then once your doind that, go for it. Try to achieve a rough sound. Note, if its painful your doing it wrong, although sometimes pain can just be because your learning. If after a week of practice pain is still there, try experiminting with your method a bit and find a way of making it painless. And really thats it. Dont expect to get it immediately, like I can do stuff like this naturally, yet some people cant do it at all however long they practice. Just dont force yourself.

Emo is not a disease it's a lifestyle. You feel it inside you. People go emo for a lot of different reasons.

  • I went Emo because It's the way I am
  • Some people want to be a cool they're just posers
  • Some think it's and answer to all their problems
  • Some think its cool like the music style and fashion and think it suits them and accurately describes the way they are.....like me
Hope this helped :)
