It's not dead. What a stupid question.

I turned on the radio to see what was on and my ears were assulted by some idiot singing in an irritating voice with some other asshole playing the same ridiculously happy four chords over and over again on his guitar and some chucklehead abusing the snare drum on his drum set.

I'd say that "punk", "pop", "popunk", "crap", or "whatever it's called now" just won't die.

Um,popunk..what the hell is that shit? Like Simple Plan? That's not even punk,that's just wanna be.

Sex Pistols
Dead Kennedys
Crass
Test Tube Babies is the real old school punk. It's still amazing. At least the people I know who listen to punk listen to them at least a little bit.

The whole "discussion" on whether punk is dead or not is really something you can argue about. It's hard to classify a genre into miny genres because someone will argue that those miny genres don't exist or that their favorite band is not "wanabe".

All bands now are just "wanabe" anyway. The only thing that wouldn't be would be the first person to ever create a single note of music.

If you like the music then listen to it, who the fuck cares if they're "posers" or something? I recently found a band, The Superphonic Spree, that sound nothing like the stuff I listen to and a couple of my friends made fun of me today for listening to them. But who the fuck cares? I enjoy listening to it, that's what music is about.

Fuck them and buy all the albums so you can piss them off.

Punk is still well alive and around today. Real punk music can't be found on radios that play popular or current (i.e. pop) muisc. Most of today's punk is all underground, and some of it is really good. Look for local punk bands if you like that genre, you'll be sure to find it, easily.

But Metallica is(was, yada yada. whatever. blah blah) thrash, which was influenced by hardcore, which is closely related to punk.

True story.

Punk and Emo are definitly two different genres, just because there isn't a lot of popular punk, and there's tons of popular emo, doesn't mean punk had become emo.

Right, as sub-genre, not one that took it over.
