We all recognize the pattern of musical genres that have contributed to the development of new genres, how new genres have emerged from existing genres and how multiple genres have contributed to a new genre and so on, bla, bla.
Independant opinions free from the influence of/or the attempt to "google" for the information is what I find the most interesting, and thats what I am looking for when I visit different music forums.
I find the Rap Rock genre interesting and all, but I really have a hard time connecting the originality of Raprock evolving from the Punk genre?
It would seem common that bands like The Clash, etc. would of course play a major part in music as a whole, but I am not very well versed in the Punk genre, I actually dont know very much about bands like The Clash and so on, so the question I am asking is, "what is your opinion"? concerning the Punk genre as the origin of Rap Rock, who are some of the major Punk Rock bands of influence? (Thanks in advance).
