The Embodiment of Punk Rock: The Green Police

Rock music has evolved so much in the recent years that you have so many types already: metal, hard rock, grunge, pop and the list goes on. One of them is punk rock. It developed between 1974 and 1976 in the US, UK and Australia. Coming from garage rock roots, punk rock bands show the extremes of what is now known as 70s rock.

Punk rock have fast, hard-edged music with short songs usually with political lyrics. As you remember, the 70s is the era of citizens knowing their rights and asking for more freedom. The UK has punk rock with Sex Pistols and the Clarks while in the US, Ramones of New York City. Right now, punk rock has gone mainstream thanks to Green Day and the Offspring.

One of the greatest 80s punk rock band is the Green Police. Coming from Claremore and Verdigris, Oklahoma, the band is composed of Duss Rosencutter on vocals/guitar, Drew "the Screw" Wilson on guitar, Chris Pixley on bass, and Evan Campbell on drums. The Green Police’s influences include The Buzzcocks, X, and 60 style Garage & Surf music. Their music are often fast-paced, with distorted guitars, complex bass riffs and trademark harsh but fun vocals.

Hi! My name is Jane and I’m married to Joe.

The only form of exercise I get everyday is when I surf the virtual waves on the web and the only muscles I have in my body are at the fingertips.

I write all I can find on the web when I surf while sipping my coffee.

PS. And I love joining memes too.
