The Punk Education Thread (bass, u2, Russian, screamo, bands)

I seriously hope all this is a bad joke because regardless of what punk fans say punk is at its heart, a genre of music not some super anti-establishment feeling.

A travesty? That is a little over board.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but really the only difference between any "Christian" rock genres is the subject / lyric matter (I will be nice enough to not make 1 additional difference - quality of music). "Christian punk" is not a completely unique style of punk as post-punk is from pop-punk, but is simply a different variety due to the lyrical content & lifestyle.

You're not wrong at all, you hit the nail on the head with the punk rock hammer.

I've always seen the connection between Gregorian Chants and the DIY attitude.

Exactly. And its revival in the 19th century is largely analogous to the appearance of Punk in the 70s.

so i have a question and maybe im wrong but i was always under the assumption that these bands:Circle Takes The Square, pg. 99, She Died Really Pretty, IWouldSetMyselfOnFireForYou, Hot Cross, Heroin, Usurp Synapse, Mohinder, Angel Hair, Funeral Dinner, I Hate Myself, After School Knife Fight, Orchid, Saetia.

were "original" screamo not what kids nowdays get confused with bands like the used and such...

Anybody taking lessons for Punk? I teach and I have a punk student. I started playing punk, but I haven't played it for a while. I'm just wondering if there are any drills or a fresh punk bass player anyone could suggest. Thnx, PEACE!
