Punk was a reaction to the stuff that came before it. The punk rock 'sound' is over 30 years old. If the Sex Pistols had came along & made music that sounded like it was 30 years old they'd sound like Glenn Miller.

Very good point. Some genres cant really be surplanted from the historical context that inspired them and still remain relevant. I feel that today's punk, true DIY punk. is more about personal and communal empowerment, and while I really don't care for the music, I love the culture, and what it represents.
