      Nah, punk is an ethos, it never died, and the “punk” aesthetic has little to do with punk. For example Ms Rachel is punk as fuck, whereas this clown is just corporate.

      But we’re saying the same thing I bet.

      There are still people trying to do things independently, just nobody sees it because we’re not posting on TikTok and Instagram.

      I work as a technician in an independent venue, lots of manual labour, doing twelve hour shifts, and also run a cassette label. I record everything myself, dub the tapes myself, make and print all the artwork myself, ship it all internationally on my own. I’ve organised unions and gone on strike at venues, won tribunals against employers.

      I will agree though that a lot of libs exploit the good will of DIY community in bad faith.

        As already mentioned he was the founding member of Minor Threat (legends of the 80s hardcore scene) and Fugazi (seminal post-punk), but his uncompromising ethos was what truly made him punk. He was the founder of Dischord Records, a fiercely DIY label that set hard price limits (about half the industry average for CDs and vinyl) and refused corporate distribution channels. Now a lot of indie labels also follow this practice, but what made Dischord so unique was the massive amounts of money thrown at them from major labels during the height of the 90s alternative rock boom. Fugazi turned down a $10 million deal with Atlantic to retain their independence when every label was frothing at the mouth to sign them. They refused to work with Ticketmaster and other commercial outlets despite their growing popularity. All of their shows remained $5 and all-ages for as long as it could be sustainable.
