Oh and before anyone starts: yes, you Septics invented it - but (as has frequently been the case) you largely failed realise what you'd got or to do anything particularly useful with it until us Limey's took it, rationalised it, repackaged it, and sold it back to you!

Not if they're swaddling themsevles in the iconography of the Punk Rock that happened two decades before their birth it isn't.

Fair enough, but lots of that stuff itself was ripped off of WWII imagery from the British military. I'm talking more about specific band names. I.E. you didn't see the Vibrators walking around with Small Faces t-shirts on.

This could be its own thread. I think they were given a helluva hard time and were rather quick to distance themselves from it all....but that same thing could be said about droves of bands.

Jesus, this blathering about how punk is this or that is such crap. It's a cultural template that people impose their own ideals and dreams upon. Lester Bangs put it best... it's all about some kids who want to be fried out of their skins by the most scalding propulsion imaginable, for a night they can pretend lasts for the rest of their lives.
Over and out.

You are now two lines into writing your first street punk anthem, but you don't really get it, do you?

Two lines into the worst fucking song ever? For the smallest group of the biggest dipshits on the planet? Great.

and relentless OTMFM by same.
There are vast legions of crusty punk kids in continental Europe. As much as I despise them (the dirt and aimlessness, but especially the begging with dogs thing which I find totally unpunk) I suppose it's still better than if ""we"" lost them to the banking industry/insurance business/insert globally nefarious job here.Oh and
Also -- they throw good parties.-- A|ex P@reeneFuck no they don't. You're disgusting. Maybe the rich US trendy-style punks do but I seriously doubt it.
This is so not about the UK, the US, or even music anymore AND IT SURE ISN'T ABOUT CLOTHES. Once a punk always an anarchist, it's one of those things.
And to be 100% perfect, this post should read :sexpistols r the fucn creatrs of punk in mi eyes nd there aint no cunt what will tell me different-- yazmin

blunt -- please note that European crust-punks /= American crust-punks. The ones I'm talking about often have jobs and run co-ops and fix bicycles and shit -- they don't beg. They do put those stupid fucking bandanas on their dogs, though.
