Street Punk

What is Street Punk?


1.

A form of harder, faster, more angry type of punk music. Street punk derived from "the streets" (hence the name)Usually working class or poor, street punks know how life is out on the street and are aware of the world around them.

Though the roots are not exactly known, most street punk music began in the UK with "The Spirit of '77" and "UK '82", which is a name for the eras of street punk.

Street punks usually have the most colorful of outfits, out of all forms of punk. Usually street punks wear leather jackets or denim jackets with studs and band logos or beliefs either painted or sewn on. Street punks also usually wear plaid pants, or tight stretch jeans, along with boots like doc martens. "Mohawks" and "Liberty Spikes" are among the many hair styles worn, as well as hair dyed radical colours.

Street punks may have a "tough" image, but most are the nicest people you'll ever meet. Usually the most accepting also.

Though their image is the main thing that sets them apart, Street punk is more about unity, acceptance, diversity, and fighting for what you believe in, regardless of the consequences.

Street punk is the strongest form of punk today. Bands like The Unseen, A Global Threat, The Casualties, Cheap Sex, and Lower Class Brats play street punk. Street punk music is DIY, loud, fast, offensive, and often talks about the Street Punk scene, politics, or violence. Street punks tend to hate bands such as AFI, Greenday, and all those other non-DIY bands. The lifestyle of street punks is layed back, fun, and strong. Street punks tend to drink a lot of beer, except some. Street punks are also divided, slightly. Street punks tend to be the nicest and most accepting of the subsubcultures, as long as you conform with the most important issues. Street punks tend to dislike the other "punks." Street punks live punk to it's fullest, and believe in every aspect of old-school punk. Street punks often hate pop-punks (Sum41), skate "punks," (Greenday) modern-horror-punks (AFI) often because their music and conformity is different than what punk is supposed to be. (Sorry kids, but AFI isn't DIY, 3-chord, fast, and loud like punk is supposed to be...)

Street punks tend to wear Docs, hair, leather, plaid, bondage pants, patches, and other stuff like that. Although, if you ask any street punk they'll tell you that the clothes don't make them punk, the clothes are simply a sign that attracts unity and detracts unwanted people.

Street Punks were originally Punk, but now less 'punk' bands have taken over the term Punk.

Street Punks have mohawks, spiked hair, chains, peircings, Doc Martens, leather jackets and listen to bands like Oxymoron and The Casualties. The common symbol they were is the Anarchy Symbol and they are usually interested in politics.

"Wow those street punks look scary, and a bit like clowns, they probably wouldn't bash us though."

4.

A street punk is the last of a once noble and respectable subculture that's now been almost thoroughly commercialized. Still listens to genuine music made by genuine people without the frivolities of fancy recording equipment and without the shackles of a major record label. A true, untrammelled seeker of freedom. Many are hard drinkers. Most can shoot a boot to your temple faster then you can count to three. They are frequently some of the nicest, most open and accepting people around. But they can still whoop your ass in heartbeat.

Ian is a dyed-in-the-wool street punk, through and through.
