RE: We don't need your technical eliteism!!! Original Punk Rock blasts onto the scene [Metal Tree: 6]
I know this post is really old but if you read this and are into or interested in punk/hardcore check out my page.
I'm a long time musician. While I appreciate some of the things Punk brought to music, it did not appeal to me particularly as it was super easy to play. As a musician it often was like a child learning to color and first messing with crayons was becoming famous when in reality the musicianship was not very impressive at all. Now there is MORE to punk than just musicianship. It is mostly about attitude. They also had speed. Some of my favorite genres of music would not exist if not for Punk, so I am thankful there is punk, but it doesn't particularly appeal to me as I can play most of it almost in my sleep. :) I like to be challenged a little bit.
