Punk+Rock

​​ Punk Rock: It is a rock music gender that first developed in the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States. It began from garage rock and prtopunk during the years 1974-1976. During the following years this derived gender from rock became globally known and a cultural phenomenon in the United Kingdom during a short period of time. Punk rock is commonly identified by its short songs with stripped down instrumentation. Another typical characteristic that usually appears in the lyrics of this type of music is its hard political opinion of anti-establishment and anti- authoritarian governments. Here is a quote from Joe Strummer’s; “Punk rock is meant to be our freedom.” Right after this big movement of punk rock started emerging, magazines and similar movements also started appearing. Such as punk sculpture, that characterized by specific styles of clothing, focused on demonstration their rebellion. John Holmstrom was the editor that fundated the magazine “Punk”, one of the first ones that talked about the punk rock movement.
