Punk Quotes

Initially, electronic music was anti-establishment, as punk rock and rock n’ roll were. The music was shut down; the police were against the parties Picture Quote #1

The words we spoke and our entire punk performance aimed to express our disapproval of a specific political event: the patriarchs’ support of Vladimir Putin, who has taken an authoritarian and anti-feminist course Picture Quote #1

I’m creative. I can’t relax unless I’ve got some project on the go. I’m somebody from art school, and art school during the punk era, when you just had a go at whatever came along Picture Quote #1

Can’t clean up after you anymore, baby brother, so don’t punk out. Make it count Picture Quote #1

Barry White, Smokey Robinson and Curtis Mayfield are big influences for me. But I’m also a metal head. I was in a bunch of punk rock bands. The Bee Gees, hip-hop and the Beach Boys are just as much of an influence on me as Smokey Picture Quote #1

In the early days, myself and my friends were into punk because we had no money, just very basic instruments and skills. It was more about the ethos and the energy Picture Quote #1

I was in bands, but they were punk bands, and you plug in the guitars, you turn them up really loud, you’ve got four or five other people on stage with you, you’ve got some protection from when they throw lighters. You can always hide behind the lead singer or the bass player Picture Quote #1

In general, we like to play as a band - guitar, piano, and voice. We also tour with a bass player, a drummer, and somebody who plays keyboard and guitar. We try to play all of our parts and flesh it out to get a lush sound, while also keeping the energy of a three-piece punk act. We want to be the best of all possible worlds Picture Quote #1

I was born in San Francisco. I was raised in Oakland, so I’m, like, super Bay Area born, and, you know, it’s just really multicultural up there, and there’s a lot of subcultures just from, like, anything, like from rockabilly to, like, crazy punk scenes to, you know, a huge rap scene, and there’s just all kinds of things you can do out there Picture Quote #1

Being a sexual icon is sort of like being the front man for an Orange County punk band: As soon as you can explain why you’re necessary, you’re over Picture Quote #1

People always had something to say about the fact I was odd looking, bigger than other people, that I was awkward. When I discovered punk, I bought into it. That look, combined with being fat, made me even less of what people thought a young woman should be Picture Quote #1

Punk rock and skateboarding took the ‘school’ out of living your life, and I related to learning as I went, doing a lot of different things that I liked, when I liked. Consequently, I’m mediocre at all of the above, but still stoked on being a lifetime student of music, skating, painting, writing, etc Picture Quote #1

I was into punk, but I didn’t go whole-hog. A lot of kids who grew up in small towns that were into punk music went the safe way - not doing drugs, being straight edge Picture Quote #1

I was the only punk rocker at my high school. And there were at least a handful of black kids who liked hip-hop. Both were kind of the new music of the day, and it was lonely being the only punk Picture Quote #1

Starting out really punk came from not knowing any better and listening to music like that, not knowing how to play music - well, still not knowing how to play music Picture Quote #1

It’s really hard to imagine there ever being the kind of impact there was when punk rock happened in the late 70’s. I wish there would be one big change like that again, but I don’t know if that’ll ever happen Picture Quote #1

Musically, New York is a big influence on me. Walk down the street for five minutes and you’ll hear homeless punk rockers, people playing Caribbean music and reggae, sacred Islamic music and Latino music, so many different types of music Picture Quote #1

I love country music, blues, and punk, and one day I might make those kinds of records Picture Quote #1

I went to school in Gainesville because it was a huge punk and folk town. So I went to class twice a week, and then I went to shows and wrote. I did a lot of music writing before I actually started playing music Picture Quote #1

I was really good friends with Matthew Ashman, the guitarist in Bow Wow Wow. He died, unfortunately. He was one of my best friends during my sort of punk period Picture Quote #1

The underground scene is still a cool way to meet a lot of cool people, see a lot of interesting bands and get a lot of food for thought, but people have to remain curious and get their brain activity food from other places besides punk Picture Quote #1

Growing up in San Diego, I can remember going with my brother to see bands like Pennywise and NOFX - good punk bands that were fast and tight Picture Quote #1

Science is the first expression of punk, because it doesn’t advance without challenging authority. It doesn’t make progress without tearing down what was there before and building upon the structure Picture Quote #1

Punk rock wasn’t a career choice. It was a hobby that we did for fun. We never thought we’d get as big as our idols in T.S.O.L. or certainly not the Ramones Picture Quote #1

When I was a teenager, science meshed with my developing ideals - such as the challenge to authority that was central to punk rock. In science, anyone from any walk of life could make a discovery that would overturn prevailing hypotheses. And that was a cause for celebration among scientists Picture Quote #1

I was about 16 when punk started to happen. It felt like you had this naÃƒÂ¯ve idea that you could change things just by wearing something Picture Quote #1

I remember seeing the full Daft Punk pyramid show in 2007. I went alone, drove up in my Honda Fit, bought a ticket off a scalper for $150, got on the floor, and had the best time of my life. I didn’t have a drink, no drugs. But I was high out of my mind. It changed my life Picture Quote #1

To see classic rock, you had to go to an arena. But punk was happening everywhere, even in little towns in the middle of nowhere in Maryland. I’d drive out to places I’d never been, just to go and see it Picture Quote #1

This isn’t CM Punk talking to Triple H, this is Phil Brooks talking to Paul Levesque Picture Quote #1
