Back on topic, I think that punk's ideals have grown to be something of a cliche at this point with teenagers picking it up every generation. I don't think that it's a bad thing necessarily, but when a punk band sounds like 98% of the other punk bands in his area, it's hard for me not to laugh when they start to use words like "unorthodox".
I kinda meant "unorthodox" more along the lines of emracing taboo subjects. How relevant that is in today's punk is questionable though.

The majority of the punk I listen to is post-hardcore though. Not a lot of generic bands there.
