Except the drumming material is simple. Even the bass material is simple. While they showed later on more technical ability, the original stuff isn't some great big technical master piece. It's simple material that sounds good.

Can someone summarize the last few pages for me, because I don't want to bother. And somehow we got to talking about Black Sabbath and Bathory?

It does involve DIY, but the punk attitude also includes having a lot of energy, generally protesting the system, and usually angst/anger towards society. |

Okay, so attitude of punk is [see above], and sound of punk is 4/4 tempos, simple and repetitive chord patterns, general loudness, and bad vocalists. Anybody have any counter-examples that will force us to add to the list?

I think Ramones are EXTREMELY overrated. I've listened to their debut 5 times to get why it's so popular besides the fact it influenced a whole wide realm of music, and all I can give it is a 6.5/10. I even gave it a higher rating simply because iot was so unioque for its time. Lowest was 1, I believe. My first rating was 3.5. All I'm saying is, I don't wanna listen to the same song made of the riffing techniques and redundant, poor lyrics for half hour.

Some bands are so great that when you read something like that it really says I will never be able to see greatness even as it stands right before me. If you can't get the Ramones without having it spelled out for you you might as well not even bother listening to music. The helplessness expressed there is just too deep. No rope can reach the bottom of that well.

My favorite genre is punk (probly biggest punk fan on this site) and I only kinda like one Ramones song come at me.

Ramones are severely overrated. Sex Pistols are better.

The lack of appreciation for The Ramones debut album expressed on here is shocking and demonstrative of some sort of retardation. Get help, people.

I've gone back and forth on what is and what isn't punk, but I think the only thing that makes sense is to apply it to what it was made to be applied to: the Sex Pistols and their contemporaries, and all the bands who jacked their sound like the fad that the punk scene was. Whether that means Television and Wire get called punk too is debatable, but it doesn't really matter anyway. Quote:

Art rock is a dumb term.

What the hell makes a band art rock? I've heard that term applied to so many bands, but i look up the meaning on Wikipedia and it never matches the band the term is being attached to.
