Punk Attitude

Everyone has a different definition of punk and has different views of how it all got started. I could agree with this because in the video we watched, it seemed like everyone who was being interviewed had different opinions of how things began. It was a different type of music because these bands were willing to go crazy with their music and break the rules. Some popular bands were, The Stooges and MC5. These bands open the eyes of many people in the 60s due to their political and violent ways. Many Punk bands dressed like no one had ever seen before. Punk Rock broke a lot of the rules and it seemed like a new type of music that was outrageous but people loved it. The first Punk Rock scene was in New York. A famous place for bands to play in New York was called CBGB. Over in England, times were rough and people needed an escape from the harsh reality. This is when people became rebellious and this is where punk fashion started. A new outrageous band that started in this time was the Sex Pistols. They became one of the most popular and famous Punk Rock bands. I think that the history of Punk is really interesting, because i do not ever really listen to it. It is cool to learn about other types of music and how it all began.
