Originally posted by gumble Nu-rave (New Rave) is just NME labelling for stuff like Klaxons and Hot Chip.... Some of it is ok I guess. I think the succesion of punk house went something like: electro, electro-house (which isnt really electro), electro punk, punk house. its basically the same shit, but electro house got really big, really quick and turned a lot of ppl off. so what better way to get the kids back in then to label the same shit punk house. (i read the term punk house in a review of the riot in belgium and for tonite only MoS cd) its a stupid name because it doesnt mean anything. punk is a way of life, not a nintendo synth under a 4/4 beat. punk is also a freedom in music. well traditionally anyway. and then theres (the new) emo, which is now just pop-punk (take punk and give it padding so noone gets hurt, whinge about some girl that dumped you kinda stuff. nothing political here please). emo was cool once upon a time, when it was a real genre, not a tag to give to anyone that has a fringe and wears black...

quit whinin you emo

Until this thread, i hadn't heard anyone use the term 'punk house'.

punk house/new rave is the stupidest classification i've ever heard: they're both the same thing, but unrelated to the names they're given... klaxons are apprently "new rave" (only named as such by NME, despite most people disagreeing with the label)... genre-creation is lame

if anything, this genre should be labelled "indie-electro", or "electro-indie"... those are your choices genre-labellers!!

Punk = attitude towards establishmentism, the clothes worn, the ideals and values (do and say what you want) etc etc, all expressed through the music and the image.

it's not about the clothing gumble... as the ramones said, they didn't wear torn pants cause it was cool, they wore em cause they couldn't afford new ones: punk is about ideology alone: the look and sound etc comes from that...

note: johnny rotten said that ironically, anyone who claims be punk, isn't because a true "punk" is anti-labels... hehe, what a gun

I wasnt saying the clothing makes a punk, its all expressed through that tho. Thats the outward expression of inward ideology.

And yer, punks dont call themselves punk, but they are quite happy for other ppl to call them that.
