    haha, you so silly Mui.

    I kind of agree that Velvet Underground had a major role in shaping what was to become punk.... but it's music so it's hard to say anyone invented anything.

    People toy with things, they'll add something new or create something off the wall, or blend styles in a way that sounds fimiliar to a genre, yet unfimiliar. I honestly can't think of a soul who sat down and "created" an entire genre of music.

    punk was "invented" in the sixties, 30 years before avril lavigne
    punk albums from that time:

    mc5 - kick out the jams (1969)
    the stooges - the stooges (1969)
    the velvet underground - the velvet underground & nico (1967)
    the velvet underground - white light / white heat (1967)
    the deviants - ptooff! (1967)
    the monks - black monk time (1966)
    the fugs - the fugs (1966)
    the swamp rats - disco still sucks (1966, released in 2003)
    the sonics - here are the sonics!!! (1965)

    and various compilations; back from the grave, pebbles, nuggets, teenage shutdown, ...

    Some of them sound very different from todays punk, but keep in my mind that this was proto punk and garagepunk. this was the stuff that influenced the punk bands from the 70s.

    I'll overlook the lack of mention of the Cramps. For now.

    I think it was the Ramones or the Sex Pistols, there is no such thing as punk music nowadays, its just gay pop music labeled as punk

    Actually, before he became a pop singer, Billy Idol was in a real (and quite good) Punk band: Generation X

    And I hope this guy MUI is kidding. It would be so sad if he's not.

    I actually found an interesting article, claiming that jazz actually started punk. The Jazz-Punk Connection

    Gloom, it was a fucking joke man, chill out.

    The Cramps are great, some of my favorite Ohio people right there...they still put on a great show too, unlike some vintage bands like The Damned.

    There are decent punk bands still, but I believe brokenwingz is referring to the Good Charlottes of the world, in which case I would definitely agree with him.

    in sweden we had punk bands that where called things like: "en slemmig torsk i en brödrost"
    wich in english means:"a slimy cod in a toaster" i mean its just simply to have some slightly chocking and weird name.

    Good Charlotte have as much to do with punk as the Sex Pistols. They whore themselves for money. It's a punkish attitude. So either they're both punk, or neither are. I know which I'd go for.

    nope, the sex pistols were definitely punk, and I don't think they made that much money...Good Charlotte just flat out isn't, their music is not.
