Punk

Punk is a genre of music that emerged in the mid-1970s. It is characterized by fast, aggressive, and often politically charged lyrics, as well as a DIY (do-it-yourself) aesthetic. Punk is often associated with anti-establishment and anti-authoritarian attitudes, and is often seen as a reaction to the mainstream music of the time. Punk bands often use distorted guitars, fast tempos, and unconventional song structures. Punk is also known for its DIY ethic, with bands often producing their own records and distributing them independently.
