Punk #punk
Punk is a genre of rock music characterized by short, fast songs, simple chord structures, and a raw, aggressive sound. Emerging in the mid-1970s, it is defined by its stripped-down instrumentation, loud and direct performance style, and often anti-establishment themes. Punk emphasizes energy and attitude over technical complexity, with vocals that are typically shouted or heavily expressive and production that is intentionally minimal or unpolished.
