Yeah, and new bands get added every year as time marches on. Your initial comment is insane though. Country, metal, electronica, they all continue on, but punk has died...? That's not how music works at all. Punk is still happening every day. From the classics you mentioned, to some shitty band who only formed last week and are still thrashing out their first song in their parents garage, it's all out there. Plenty of ways to find it too. Speciality punk record labels and record stores, punk venues, plenty of playlists to be found.

You’re not getting my point. Classic rock wasn’t called classic rock when it was new. No one in the 70’s were calling Pink Floyd a classic rock band. They were just a rock band.

Punk (music) was a thing that happened, not a thing that IS happening.

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.
