Changes

'''Punk music''', or '''punk rock''', originated in the United States in a club called [[CBGB]] in [[New York City]] in the mid-1970s with [[Television (band)]] and [[The Ramones]] followed by the still popular [[The Dead Kennedys]]. It was seen as a response to the cultural sterility of [[progressive rock]] and other highly commercialized forms of rock. Although punk had limited popularity in America, it quickly spread to the [[UK]] where bands such as [[The Sex Pistols]], [[Siouxsie and the Banshees]] and [[The Clash]] became massively popular.

While many punk bands are apolitical, or may even be conservative, a number of punk bands are associated with far-left movements such as [[AntiFa]] or racist [[skinheads]].<ref name="Horn2017">{{cite book|author=David Horn|title=Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Popular Music of the World, Volume 11: Genres: Europe|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WKc0DwAAQBAJ&pg=PA598|date=5 October 2017|publisher=Bloomsbury Academic|isbn=978-1-5013-2610-3|pages=598–}}</ref> Examples of AntiFa punk bands include the anthemic Los Fastidios,<ref name="Kuhn2011">{{cite book|author=Gabriel Kuhn|title=Soccer Vs. the State: Tackling Football and Radical Politics|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=HWj7BgAAQBAJ&pg=PA246|year=2011|publisher=PM Press|isbn=978-1-60486-053-5|pages=246–}}</ref> while among left-wing racists the band Blue Eyed Devils is prominent, with explicit album titles such as ''Aryans vs. Aliens''.<ref name="Dyck2016">{{cite book|author=Kirsten Dyck|title=Reichsrock: The International Web of White-Power and Neo-Nazi Hate Music|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sREVDQAAQBAJ&pg=PA116|date=3 October 2016|publisher=Rutgers University Press|isbn=978-0-8135-7473-8|pages=116–}}</ref>

However, some punk bands embrace a more uplifting and conservative message, particularly as scene in the [[Straightedge]] movement which eschews alcohol, smoking, drugs, and premarital sex as well as liberal social engineering (c.f. [[Minor Threat]]'s "Guilty of Being White" which rebuts the "white privilege" narrative).<ref name="Kuhn2010">{{cite book|author=Gabriel Kuhn|title=Sober Living for the Revolution: Hardcore Punk, Straight Edge, and Radical Politics|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Rp_tVcHOV0oC&pg=PA272|date=1 February 2010|publisher=PM Press|isbn=978-1-60486-343-7|pages=272–}}</ref>
