    There is nothing more punk than criticising punk. One of the earliest anarcho-punk songs, "Punk is Dead" by Crass, is a scathing critique of the punk culture of the time and a declaration that punk in its original form had run its course and become an aesthetic rather than a force for change.

    I love the way no-one ever gets upset at being “analysed” by Frankie.
    The fact it’s all just good natured fun is what sets him apart + makes his stuff great.

    Good on you Frankie, and NAMASTE...

    Some of the best advice I ever got was, "You're not hardcore just because you wake up early to spike your hair."
    A torn-up vest and jeans hanging on by a thread doesn't make you punk rock. The clothes you wear don't make art.
    You really want to be a punk, treat everyone with kindness and respect even when the world doesn't give it back to you, because punks are actually nice people pretending to be mean.

    This needs a part two and/or an extended version; as do your metalhead and hippe cultural observation videos! Ha.
    I don't know who you are, but you're quite entertaining. You remind me of some obscure version of Nardwar - you both do heaps of research before you interview anyone or present anything!
    Punk is something I've loved most of my life. Thanks for accurately educating the world about us! Punk's not dead; just old, tired, and asleep on the subway.
    P.S. - Do people actually listen to The Sex Pistols and/or regard them as a band? They're the boyband of punk. 😂 They were created/formed by a recoed label in an attempt to popularize punk, therefore bringing it to the mainstream to capitalize on it.

    When I lived the true Punk lifestyle, poor on the streets and the whims of fortune, I hardly knew more than 3 or 4 punk bands and the social movement, as well as the rest of the 1980s, went by me completely.

      Depends on where you live, and what you're looking for. I live in Louisville KY and we have a thriving Punk/DIY Music Scene. Some ppl like doing the battle jacket and crust pants or goth looks, but a lot of ppl just dress normal/in current trends like Frankie mentioned. The younger kids who keep joining like to dress up but not usually in the 70s/80s punk aesthetic. Doc martins are still popular tho lol
      The bands here have a wide variety of subgenres but if you ask me punk is more than anything about the DIY aspect, making art just to make it, and a pro working class/anti oppression attitude. Moshing is fun too.

      @@justsomedudeyouknow8372 battle jackets are those denim/leather jackets or vests covered in patches, buttons, studs/spikes and stuff
      Crust pants are just jeans with the same kinda patches all over. Might be another word for the pants but that's what I've heard them called
      Also sometimes instead of patches they'll have stuff painted on
