punk for me is basically I, IV, V power chords played monotonally, a singer who can't sing, a straight 4/4 thwack drumbeat, one-note bassline

but I'm really just describing The Ramones, I suppose there's more to punk than that - I only really listen to them and the 1st wave of British punk and Refused
