[QUOTE=plaidLeather420]ionop if i missed this but arent Circle jerks as well? or is this just british bands[/QUOTE]
circle jerks were hardcore punk, not street, great band though...ive never been too fond of street punk, although there have been a few bands that ive liked before, main ones being the Varukers...great [i]f[/i]ucking band.... :chug:

Again this false history about streetpunk.

Look, Sham 69 started streetpunk, not Exploited or Discharge or GBH or, god forbid, Disorder.
First streetpunk bands were Sham 69, **** Sparrer, Menace, UK Subs, Angelic Upstarts, Cockney Rejects, Ruts, Stiff Little Fingers... Bands from second wave of punk, not the third wave as you first mentioned here.

Umm mate, none of the bands you mentioned are street punk bands. Im talking hard hitting street punk, not 77 or oi.

Yeah I know what you mean, but more people associate street with uk82, here anyway

[QUOTE=Alley McSqueal]In the mid 90's, A Global Threat hit Maine, The Devotchkas hit NYC, NY Rel-x hit NYC, LCB started up in Texas, etc etc etc. Basically in the 90s, street punks popularity exploded. [/QUOTE]

I couldve sworn they were from boston... :confused:

but theyre still my fave band. nice history meg! :thumb:

Started in Maine, moved to Boston.


UK82 is/was street punk.

UK 82? As I see it:

Hardcore punk: Discharge, Exploited, GBH, Abrasive Wheels, Varukers, Chaos UK ...
Oi punk: 4 Skins, Business, Partisans, Last Resort, PTTB, Ejected...
Anarcho punk (usually not the bands people mean when they say UK82 bands, but they were thereat that time, so...): Conflict, Icons Of Filth, Rudimentary Peni, Sub Humans, System...

Some bandsfrom that time were more on the poppy side of punk, but I wouldn't call them pop punk (but neither hc punk or oi), like Adicts, Chron Gen, Erazerhead, Newtown Neurotics...

STREET PUNK HISTORY!

After the original punk movement's hype had died down, (Or should I say when Sid Vicious 'fell off the perch', hahaha), punk as it was known turned into this new wave, romantic stuff, that most pioneers of the original movement couldnt bare.

All around the UK in the year of 1979 there were punks coming together, forming bands whose sounds were alot more rough and aggressive then the original 77 sound. In Edinborough, Scotland, the Exploited came together, in Nottingham, England, The Varukers came together, Discharge came together, etc etc. It can be said The Exploited, The Varukers and Discharge are the pioneers/ "founders" of street punk, and has influenced to be what we know it as today. The youth of the original punk movement obviously fell inlove with the sound of these aggressive bands.

The punks of the 80's adapted a bit of a new fashion sense then the original punks. Studded/painted jackets, mohawks, bondage pants, doc marten boots. Studded/painted jackets were actually used to advertise youre own band to the rest of the scene, but then more punks took the look on, and most were found with a studded and painted jacket. Doc Martens were worn because they were/are a sturdy work boot. Back in the 80's Doc Martens werent fashionable. The punks are what made Doc Marten's fashionable to the general public. It's the same with piercings. In the 70s punks were wearing safety pins through all parts of their bodies, and in the 80's people discovered that professional piercing could become a business oppurtunity!

These punks were given the name street punks, because they didnt have alot of money, and alot were on the streets/living in squats. They didnt have ripped pants because it was cool, its because they were living in poverty. Bondage pants werent in fashion back then, so they all didnt cost 100+ dollars a pair. It was very different to what it is now.

All through out the 80's in the UK, many street punk bands were popping up all over the place, including, Chaos UK, Chaotic Dischord, Disorder, Anti Pasti, One Way System, The Accursed etc etc etc. Street punk was huge in Britain during the 80's, and of course it wouldnt be to long until it hit America!

In the early 90's, New York didnt have the punk scene it does today. Then came the Casualties. In all seriousness, if it wasnt for them, I dont think the USA would have the street punk scene that it does today. After the Casualties started gigging, street punk basically burst into the USA. In the mid 90's, A Global Threat hit Maine, The Devotchkas hit NYC, NY Rel-x hit NYC, LCB started up in Texas, etc etc etc. Basically in the 90s, street punks popularity exploded. Thank you America....hahahaha

Now-a-days theres street punk scenes all over the world, in most states of the USA, Canada, Australia, ALL over England, Ireland, etc etc.

Street punk started out as a left wing movement, and alot of the bands still are very left wing, but nowadays most people see street punk as chaotic and apathetic, which it has become. Theres still bands like The Varukers, Chaos UK and Disorder, who keep politics in the game though.

Oh off course.We must divide everything.That's a negative thing to do.
Punk-rock is one movement and it can't be divided.
Punk started as a rebellion, a social rebellion.Today money is important.
And the colour of your hair and bands on your jacket.This is not punk.
It's a fashion freak show.
Every kid in US can buy punk gear in some store and instantly he's a punk
:lol:

Punk has always been different,been tolerant and there are many different bands that make punk scene today.
But for most of US kids,punk is about clothes and lifestyle.
So hurry up,colour your hair,buy your boots,leather jacket and order some casualties cd's!

Street punk :lol: :lol: :lol:
