Punk rock emerged as its own genre in the mid-1970s by stripping rock and roll back to direct songs, simple structures and a faster, louder attack. New York and London developed different versions of that break, with the Ramones and Sex Pistols among the early reference points. Punk later fed into hardcore and indie-rock descendants. Fanzines and other DIY publishing became part of how punk scenes documented themselves and shared ideas.
Minneapolis band Supportive Parents push punk rock toward hardcore, while Vicenza’s All Coasted connect melodic punk with a local scene shaped by disappearing DIY spaces. Melbourne’s Racoonhead bring emo into the same field.
