The origin of Punk
Nobody really truly knows who first started the punk revolution, but it started around the 70s when bands like The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, Blondie and Television. Unemployment rates of young adults skyrocketed and 60% of 18 year olds were left without jobs. This brought out a new generation of youth with strong opinions and a lot of free time.
