It’s ironic that there are so many prerequisites and requirements to be a fan of punk, while being a punk musician requires nothing. You don’t even need to know how to play an instrument or sing.

Just don’t be a right-wing loser and you’re welcome to any punk rock show, wearing a tuxedo or a space suit if you want.

Went to a show last week and a guy in a button up and corduroy pants started talking to me. He was new but I embraced him as much as a fellow punker as I would someone with torn up jeans, dyed hair and studs. In the end you should be able to wear what you feel comfortable in, whether it be a suit or a crust punk fit

Unironically.
“As something of a punk myself,” there is waaay too much cynicism in the modern world.

I really think that that’s mostly just a loud minority being asshats. In my local scene the focus is more on being and expressing yourself in a way you like. Sure the music might be a bit more extreme than popular punk bands but in the end we all stand for the same common goals of equality and self expression, and excluding people for “not being punk enough” is a shit take and should die out real quick

im sorry but no one that listens to punk calls it punk rock.
Slab_Bulkhead@lemmy.world 1 month ago
well just thats not very ‘punk rock’ of you.
texture@lemmy.world 1 month ago
i agree
Diddlydee@feddit.uk 1 month ago
They don’t, however, that’s the correct genre name. Punk is an ethos rather than a genre.
texture@lemmy.world 1 month ago
correct?
FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 1 month ago
True, which is funny bscause it makes it seem like lois lane has adapted her vernacular to communciate clearly with Clark and his old fashioned ways.

I mean, I’ve been listening to punk since I was 10 and I do occasionally say punk rock. Usually in a phrase like “Hell yeah punk rock!”, it’s just not as common as saying punk.
Chezus9247@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Yeah, I usually just say Punk.

Would be especially odd to include the “rock” if you have another modifier before it (ie: folk punk, pop punk, crust).

Apparently some things I listen to are, or have a bit of that kind of vibe? I still don’t really call it that

Not include Goldfinger’s “Superman” into a Superman movie claiming “punk rock” themes was a huge missed opportunity
Cosmonaut_Collin@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I don’t think Superman is pretending to be a super man though.
Overkrill@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 month ago
what have i missed? why is superman in any way associated with punk?
nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de 1 month ago
They have a discussion about music, and this is how it ends.
Please, watch the film it’s amazing.

I remember being one of the youngest of a group of boy scouts, sitting in a tent, huddled around a battery-powered, mono-speaker tape deck, in 1978, listening to a bootleg copy of Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols. I’d never heard anything like it. No other music has surprised me in the same way since.
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
Nevermind the bollocks was good, but that whole project was just Malcom Mclaren building around a fashion movement of staged rage.
The Ramones first album was two years earlier, without any bullshit agenda or fashion cues.
Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 1 month ago
Cool. Cool, cool, cool, but I didn’t hear the Ramones first album in the 1970s.

What has superman to do with punk rock?
MountingSuspicion@reddthat.com 1 month ago
In the newest Superman movie he and Lois go to his family home. He has punk band posters that she claims are normie or poser or something. The following scene comes later: youtube.com/shorts/2LivEfhnW9k

webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 1 month ago
Exactly, i would love to discover some new punkrock, should i go and watch superman or something?
Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 month ago
The new Superman movie has a side plot about Superman and Lois disagreeing on the meaning of “punk rock”. Lois thinks it’s about questioning everything, telling truth to power, getting angry. Clark thinks in our modern political climate, being kind and hopeful and loving is “the real punk rock”. Clark’s musical tastes are still pretty normie tho

Goldfinger reference?
