The punk scene has not died but rather has changed and even split. The ramones and sex pistols all had a different sound than what might be labeled punk today, suck as anti-flag and against all authority. Another problem is the fans. Guys, just because a band succeded does not mean that they lose "punkness" or whatever... it does not mean that they had to sell out either. Blink-182, in my mind, is as punk as nofx. Sum 41, however, is alternative, which is essentially a class inbetween the styles of elvis and marilyn manson(yeah, wide gap). Now, will someone explain to me why the hell stuff would be labeled "gothic"?
