punk was not just a musical form, but an ideology, railing against the safe, bland tedious establishment!.
i know, cos i was there!.
britannica concise encyclopedia:
"Aggressive form of rock music that coalesced into an international (though predominantly Anglo-American) movement in 1975 – 80!. Originating in the countercultural rock of artists such as the Velvet Underground and Iggy (Pop) and the Stooges, punk rock evolved in New York City in the mid-1970s with artists such as Patti Smith and the Ramones!. It soon took root in London — where distinctly "punk" fashions, including spiked hair and ripped clothing, were popularized — with bands such as the Sex Pistols and the Clash, and later in California, with X, Black Flag, and the Dead Kennedys!. It is often marked by a fast, aggressive beat, loud guitar with abrupt chord changes, and nihilistic lyrics!. Variants include new wave (more pop-oriented and accessible) and hardcore (characterized by brief, harsh songs played at breakneck speed); the latter continued to thrive through the 1990s!."
