Punk Rock

One of the original, and currently largest, punk communities on Lemmy. The purpose of this place should be obvious from the title. Self promotion is ok, but spam is not, so keep it reasonable.

The goal is to help everyone find new tracks from around the world. Post new music, or your old favourites, but hopefully as you browse the group you'll find something you haven't heard before. Think more crate digging than top 40 streaming services.

Where possible please try to link to Bandcamp, so others can support the bands you love.

Is this an example of everything wrong with punk rock in 2025 or proof that old punks never die? (Fear - Live 04/07/2024) (www.youtube.com)

I can't decide, honestly.

Updates to add:

  1. I am basically old. I saw X and TSOL and Black Flag live in the early 80s in Southern Cal. So if this was ageist of me, then I guess I'm disrespecting myself too. But it's not because...

  2. This is just about making money, nothing to do with the punk spirit. Lee Ving gets to pay his rent / have a little fun still, the concert promoter and the hall got some and paid their staffs (which is all fine, everyone's gotta eat) but there's nothing punk rock about this performance, other than the songs from the late 70s. And anyway...

  3. There's no age limit I suppose, but I hate to see artists still plugging away at this age (late 70s). I just saw X here a few months ago, they billed it as their last tour. I actually loved the show, but if they tour again next year, I will be disappointed in them. Time to do something else, imo.

I love that many of you still love to see this kind of thing, so I'm glad I shared it here; you do you. This is me.
