Punk rock in Britain coincided with the rise of Thatcherism, and nearly all British punk bands expressed an attitude of angry social alienation.
Punk rock was also a reaction against certain tendencies that had overtaken popular music in the 1970s, including what the punks saw as superficial "disco" music and grandiose forms of heavy metal, progressive rock and "arena rock." Punk also rejected the remnants of the hippie counterculture of the 1960s.
A few musicians and fans also included Nazi -connected elements in their outfits, primarily the swastika, the Iron Cross and German Army helmets, but many of them claimed (somewhat disingenuously) not to understand the connection nor why people were so upset.

The term "Punk rock" was originally used to describe the primitive guitar-based rock and roll of untutored US bands of the mid-1960s such as The Seeds from Southern California and The Standells from Boston.
The roots of punk rock also lie in the abrasive, dissonant style of the Velvet Underground, the Detroit bands The Stooges and MC5, the UK pub rock scene, and glam rock groups such as The New York Dolls.
Punk rockers rejected what they saw as the pretension, commercialism and pomposity which had overtaken rock music in the 1970s, spawning superficial "disco" music and grandiose forms of heavy metal, progressive rock and "arena rock".

Punk rock is the anti-establishment music movement of the period 1976-80, exemplified by The Ramones, the Sex Pistols, The Clash, and The Damned.
This term is also used to describe subsequent music scenes that share key characteristics with those first-generation "punks." The term is sometimes also applied to the fashions or the irreverent "do-it-yourself" attitude associated with this musical movement.
An important feature of punk rock was an evident desire to return to the concise and simple approach of early rock and roll.

 punk music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Preceded by a variety of protopunk music of the 1960s and early 1970s, punk rock developed between 1974 and 1977 in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, where groups such as the Ramones and Sex Pistols were recognized as the vanguard of a new musical movement.
The first wave of punk aimed to be aggressively modern, distancing itself from the bombast and sentimentality of early 1970s rock.
However, second wave punk bands—including bands from both the post-punk and hardcore punk subgenres—often sought to break from that format.

Smith's group, and her first LP released in 1975, directly inspired many of the mid-70s punk rockers, so this suggests a path by which the term migrated to the music we now know as punk.
Punk rock also emerged as a reaction against certain tendencies that had overtaken popular music in the 1970s, including what the punks saw as superficial "disco" music and grandiose forms of heavy metal, progressive rock and "arena rock".

 Hardcore punk
It was, for a while, a difficult choice of lifestyle, in which those who dressed punk only on the weekends, or only for shows, were derided as 'poseurs' from a place of genuine moral gravity.
Moreoever, it was believed by these die-hard hardcore punks that these new long-haired intepreters of hardcore were merely engaging in contrivance and attempting to mimic emotions, such as raw anger, that they truly did not feel.
In this case, the sense of liberation that many of the grunge bands felt, that you didn't have to be the world's greatest musician to form a band, was at least as important as the music.

 Post-Punk Music
The focus of rock histories and television retrospectives is often on the punk years themselves and with good reason; punk forever changed rock music, and allowed true, rebellious rock and roll to become basic and non-commercialized once again.
As the restrictive measures of punk, and all the cliched fashion statements it entailed, came to a close, post-punk groups took up the gauntlet.
As gothic bands delivered new wave records from England to the United States, Bauhaus were trying to break out of the very genre they had created.

 Black Punk Time, Part 1
Seismic Waves' body of work deserve a place in punk history based on their titles alone; you have to acknowledge songs named, "Cable TV Was A Ripoff," "Lipsynch To The Go Gos," and "Fat Girls." Guitarist Pat Baptiste was also African American, making the band 66.7% Black.
New Wave can be said to be an afterbirth of punk, though in retrospect, the quirky art rock of Eno and the electronic experiments of Kraftwerk in the early '70s seem to lay the groundwork.
A more limited definition, one which looks at New Wave as a marketing of the oddness of the underground to the masses, can be said to start as soon as Malcolm McLaren's Sex Pistols experiment blows itself up and he and much of the "punk" world use their energy in less abrasive projects.

 A History of Punk
While their heavy sounding music was not particularly original (they were extremely derivative of the current sound of The Who), their attitude inspired many future punk bands, prophesizing the Sex Pistols' conflicts with EMI and Virgin.
Punk may have cosmic and sometimes conscious artistic ties to past radical movements, but most of its significance lies within the barriers of language and expression that were broken down.
Their determinedly non-commercial musical course was described as "abrasive or dirgelike," and while they "joined the ranks of other die-hard rock conservatives," Harron went on to espouse the virtues of disco.

A second album for Armageddon, the aptly titled Loud, followed in 1981; it matched the brothers' atonal squall and stream-of-consciousness compositions with a supporting cast of free jazz musicians.
Featuring many of the same musicians, the follow-up, 1984's Sing No Evil, was an even greater concession to accessibility (relatively speaking, of course) with its improved sense of songwriting and structure; it's still acclaimed by many as one of the band's best works.

 Does hating rock make you a music critic? - By Jody Rosen - Slate Magazine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
To me, music is music, and the "rockist" point of view of actually having a large hand in creating the work you perform long predates rock and roll.
I think this is also why politically-charged music gets a pass; folks can sound smart by spouting their political views, and since it's always framed within the context of rebellion, it's okay.
Such was the case when I was an active music reviewer between the 70s through the early 90s, and from the vantage point of advancing geezer-hood I have to say presenting rock and roll as the model of "authenticity", an epicenter of real music made by individuals from unincorporated communities of the soul, is ironic;

 tsenft: Third Wave Feminism: 1983-today.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Especially among men over the age of 35, there is a belief that the gains of second wave feminists have gone too far; so much so that women now effectively rob men of rights under the guise of sexual equality.
One of the biggest problems facing third wave feminists (particularly from those who want to revive the second wave) is the charge that third wavers "do nothing" to change things politically.
That many third wavers are well aware of the important criticisms launched at the second wave for being too closely allied with "white women's politics" complicates matters further, and for the better, in my personal opinion.

Their early works (the In A Car EP and Meat Puppets LP) were wholeheartedly punk, with vocals so feral in their delivery they were often indecipherable, but ultimately humorous and ingenious once discovered.
The band's exciting experimentation with psychedelia, acid rock, and quieter tunes on top of a core western-style thrash sound, gave them their one acknowledged classic album, and propelled the record to legendary status.
The Meat Puppets burgeoning musicality led to more intricate and melodic efforts on 1985's Up on the Sun, which was a cohesive collage of songs that further demonstrated their abilities to capture a sound that had all of the wonder of the desert.
