However, the emergence of punk groups in the first half of the 70s, the word punk was used to describe anything different, anti-popular, controversial, anti-established. To deny any association with the mainstream, punk music was born and raised in the area local, clear, energetic and vibrant scene in London and New York, echoing the attitudes of a rebellious youth music insured scandalous and outrageous.
UK SCENE EXAMINATION

U.S. STAGE REVIEW
U.S. punk scene is the result of the huge impact of British punk scene in the world. Although most immature and definitely less controversial than its partners in the UK, U.S. punk groups rose in the East and West Coast of the communication of the need for a substantial audience in the States of origin, hard, not easily absorbed and completely against the grain of the music.
In the U.S., the punk was fundamentally different than the scene in the UK in relation to violence and the outbreak. The U.S. political system at that time was rather affecting Afro-Americans in urban America than white children socially acceptable in the suburbs. Basic knowledge of music is reflected brilliantly simplistic, however, surprisingly dominant points of the Ramones always a generation minimalist punk sounds catchy. At the same time, the U.S. punk musical groups and introduced the song speed soon to launch their revolution.
The largest groups of U.S. punk scene are the Ramones, The Dead Kennedys, Blondie, Talking Heads, The Stooges, MC5, and New York Dolls, which have greatly influenced U.S. post-punk and alternative bands like Sonic Youth, Green Day, Nirvana and others.
Punk inevitably deflated in the 80s, being hijacked by commercialism and fashion. Become a tool to increase profitability, punk soon became conventional and expected. A Despite efforts to heal wounds with alternative rock bands, the punk movement died long ago as their struggle against the establishment of philosophy long while being integrated into the dominant culture.
