Thanks for making this forum better.
I'm not saying that at all. Folk and country, as labels, predate rock and can be distinguished by a number of things. Indie, well, some indie IS rock and some is not.

The main point I'm making is that punk in particular doesn't seem to have any meanings and general connotations that aren't to ALSO be found in plenty of subgenres of music widely accepted as falling under rock.

I'm not even saying this to start some fight. I'm just making a point that I feel is entirely valid.
