History

Historical Context

The punk rock movement began in 1976, emerging as a reaction against mainstream music's overproduction and corporate nature. Influential bands like the Sex Pistols and The Ramones shaped the genre's raw sound and anti-establishment ethos. By the 1980s, bands such as NOFX, formed in 1983, continued this legacy, highlighting punk's enduring cultural impact, as seen in their documentary "40 Years of F**kin’ Up."
