i know the genre takes a lot of heat for having no talent but I think this is a little harsh and stereotypical. Some bands like Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers (early punk), The Bad Brains (early hardcore), and the Cramps (psychobilly) have musical/vocal talent that you can't really deny..
Discuss?

No punk posers have no talent. A shitload of punk bands have talent, look at stuff like the clash, dead kennedys, stiff little fingers, etc etc.

For example, Ramones is a big joke. I can't understand why people love them. There's so many better...

The genre takes alot of heat for having no talent _these days_ more than ever. The reason for this, undeniably, is because these day's it just doesn't. People are right. Back in the day, it held a little credit due to a few gems in the genre, but these days the genre has degenerated into samey songs, played the same way, to the wail of a whiney voice. Punks over, sadly.
Punk had no talent back in it's glory days? Maybe.
Punk has no talent now? Undeniably.

Punk is dead. Accept it. Or don't, nobody really gives a shit anyway.

i don't get how punk is dead when there are still bands that play the genre worldwide. sure, there is alot of regurgitation (see the numerous d-beat bands) but i think it's still going strong for an underground type of music.

Punk as a concept died a long time ago. The genre of "punk" is just a blanket term thrown on the bands that haven't realised this yet.

Sadly, the spiked hair, the safety pins, the ripped shirts, the skater shoes and pierced ears are just about all this generation knows about punk. Once upon a time, it meant something other than a fashion sense.

Punk wishes it was cool. it tries to be cool. Until everyone realizes that all the bands sound the same.
Punk is out, and metal is somewhat back in. It's slowly edging back.
I hope<3
