PUNK

We called punk to a musical movement that develops beetween early eighties and late seventies, I apologize for the mess of the dates, but I try to keep an internal logic in relation to the motion-acracidad such a moment of musical history when things seem stagnant. They lost the last echoes of May sixty-eight, the hippie movement, and the old rock'n roll was repeated in instrumental virtuosity; comfortably in a world divided into blocks, with an international situation, but frankly stressful, not doomed to Thanks to massive war danger pump "democratic"-the nuclear threat. Everything went smoothly-squeaky.But in this historical period characters that emerge based on an amalgamation aesthetic in which contributions were united great myths unclassifiable as T-Rex, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed or David Bowie, dare to go on stage without knowing just touch a instrument, taking notes of their crazy gadgets they come out of the nose, often infamous - both nostrils as the notes - and throwing away their irreverent lyrics all the myths of the society in which they live.Two hammers Satanic born at that time: God Save the Queen and Anarchy in U. K. Sex Pistols, two hammers heretics like Tor real cause storms, directly and mercilessly beating the two most respected institutions in Britain, and that gave suck to the English from the cradle: the monarchy and hierarchy, fundamental on the islands, without which it is very difficult to conceive of social existence in these.Anyway, the gentlemen are allowed to offend the most sacred symbols of their surroundings and, in the name of what, because in the name of nothing, because there is nothing to fight for, the world is already divided and theirs was unemployment and garbage-Punk with safety pins as a symbol and its slogan "No Future" become champions of dead rats, is the birth of a new kind of criticism of the system, more intuitive than intellectual, not based on a review books, but stimulants and experience, and as a means of expression had vinyl, not paper. If Kant raise his head-he could see, he was so fond of criticism-a critical process carried to its logical conclusion, and also in a much more casual than his. This is not to rebuild a world criticize decadent society simply can not be reconstructed. We come to the end: No future.A theory created by a ragged with spiky hair and full of amphetamines and other things modern cynics who would be proud the same Diogenes the Dog, if this had the childishness of pride in something. They announced the end of history before anyone else, of course, this "end of history" came to another and has nothing to do with Sex Pistols, Exploited and The Clash, as in the vaunted academic version is a more rather optimistic, the concept of who makes the pasta teaching and writing. So if you can see a future world and perfect uniform. But Sid Vicious was not, certainly, a stomach so grateful as Fukuyama.What Why this tirade? Well maybe you have felt nostalgic for those days where I was just a kid who saw me arise over hitherto unknown effervescence. Perhaps it is due to a feeling of being back in decline - the nineties have been finiseculares in its broadest sense and have not brought anything new, unless more wealth for the rich and more poverty for the poor and the first decade of millennium has brought an apocalyptic crisis. Or, rather, I remembered that is not Joey Ramone Ramones leader, the man long as a sentence, with its matted, his jeans and his glasses broken glass ass revolutionized music and society on the basis Letter dirty and ramshackle rock'n'roll or group colleagues Dee Dee and Johnny, and Joe Strummer, leader of The Clash, and many others who rocked the skeleton and consciousness.

  The music is not irreverent or original. I miss those scoundrels who left no stone cold. What a difference between then singing Sex Pistols God Save the Queen and Elton John singing a ballad a few years ago (beeeeee!) Dedicated to Lady Di!P. D.Joey, this is for you: Let's go!
