Punk has a "Do it Yourself" ethic that says anyone who likes music should pick up instruments and start a band. Other forms of rock n roll are highly commercial, and most punk is anti commercial/capitalism. Punk is also more aggressive and progressive than rock n roll, which makes it more shocking. I personally think punk is similar to what rock n roll used to be.

That is just my opinion.
