It's not too late to bring punk back though. Start a band if you don't like the current situation punk is in. Yeah Green Day and Avril are lame and they're definantly corporate punk (actually Green Day used to be a punk band before American Idiot) but it's not like punk music is all that hard to play or write. So start a band. Anyone can do it!

Punk's dead and buried. It's just another genre at this point. Once the image/sound/attitude was bundled together and became what punk was about, the movement was null and void.

I think it could be brought back though.

Some would say that punk died when G.G. Allin keeled over.

if you honestly think it can be brought back then you've completely missed the point of punk.

Sure, if you have a Delorean and some plutonium.

I find it funny that Green Day are considered a corporate band since American Idiot, when the whole point of the record was bashing the corporations and government. That is very punk, I think most people are just jealous because they are the most successful punk band ever.

Ha ha. A band calling others to fight the machine, of which they are a part of. This is why bands like Green Day and Anti-Flag will NEVER be punk. Not matter how many mo-hawks, safety pins, or revolution calls they have they're still a part of what killed punk.
