    Rock music sis still created though… You’re basically saying “70s rock could only happen in the 70s so therefore punk doesn’t exist anymore”. The “70s rock” part of that sentence isn’t even true, let alone the jump from it to the back half.

      Exactly! And they’re constantly adding new songs to the canon! Hell, they’ve added some nirvana and foo fighters tracks!

      No, what I’m saying is that in the 70’s, what we know now as “classic rock” was simply called “rock” music. I thought I explained this pretty well already.

      Similarly, in the 70’s punk was called punk. What we have now that is calling itself punk- in my opinion, can’t be punk. Because punk WAS. Like how classic rock WAS.

      There are no NEW classic rock bands. Ergo, there are no new punk bands.
