Punk isn’t dead, it has just evolved!

Music is an unavoidable ingredient in everyone’s life - whether it’s the music we play by personal choice or the music we hear in supermarkets.
We've all accepted the fact that our current generation judges and categorizes its peers by the music that they listen to. Ever asked yourself: “Why is that”? Because music isn't just something you listen to anymore, it's who you are.
Whenever I want to listen to music, I just can’t help but imagine the rebellious drum’n’bass combination ringing in my ears. In the end, I’m stuck on a punk background. And I enjoy it constantly.
But what exactly is PUNK? Technical definition: A rock form characterized by aggressive volume, short, angry vocals and emotional content.
If you ask me, that’s a bit too summarized.
What do I think Punk is? Punk is thinking for yourself, sincere aggression and kindness at the same time. It’s about being open-minded and accepting change. Punk is being different without trying, embracing a “do it yourself” ethic.
Surely, you’ve caught the main idea by now.
So that’s all. A punk never dwells too much in one place!
