Punk By Sub-Genre
Punk rock quickly became a platform for unafraid, unapologetic, creative geniuses (in my opinion) who aimed their sights at the dysfunction in our society. Its DIY (do-it-yourself) ethos encouraged many aspiring musicians to form their own bands, start independent record labels, and organize their own gigs. Punk spawned various subgenres like hardcore punk, pop punk, emo, horror punk, and plenty more opening the doors to countless fans eager to join the movement.
Punk Rock Venues
In the past, punk rock venues have served as the birthplace for raw energy, rebellion, and counter-cultural movements. These venues laid the groundwork for allowing stages to be a place of complete individual expression, paving the way for future generations. Many venues have been lost throughout the years, others still carry the torch and are home to musicians, communities, and misfits.
