Being a teenager who has a particular love for Crust Punk and old Emotive Hardcore, I can say with some certainty that I would have never heard of acts like From Ashes Rise, Wow, Owls!, Oroku or anything like that without old listeners of the genres to give me recs.

As for my response to this thread, I'm a teen who likes punk music but I don't necessarily consider myself a punk. If anything, I'd be called a prep by any punk. But I love the music.
It's been a long time since I was a teenager and these are not the kinds of issues that really impact me, but I will say I appreciate hearing teenagers who understand that you don't have to wear a particular uniform to enjoy any particular type of music.
