Honestly, Punk has to be one of my most favorite movements music wise. It was radical, transformative, loud and trashy and not afraid to show it. On top of that, it stood for something outside the realms of the music world. Punks were not happy about the world and with politically loaded songs such as Bonzo Goes to Bitburg by The Ramones, a song protesting the Ronald Raegan's visit of Bitburg which was a soldier cemetery where numerous SS officers were buried, they took a different approach to what the world was used to up until that point with regards to voicing their ideas of social protest. (The Flower Child movement being the stand out voice against social injustice prior to Punk's briskly booming popularity.) Bands like the Sex Pistols, The Clash or The Ramones are very much alive in our consciousness even today and rightly so. The Punk movement was in its own right, a highlight of the late 20th century.
