Both? There's not only two types of punk. There are various genres. Ska-punk, Skate-punk, surf-punk, emo-punk, hardcore-punk, Christian-punk etc. I'd have to say I'm emo, ska punk. The Get Up Kids, Dashboard, Thinktank, A, Thursday, Taking Back Sunday, Hey Mercedes, Millencolin, The Early November, Straylight Run, Noise Ratchet, Starstruck, Silverstein, etc.
*shudders* ..... There aint that many types of punk... the big ones are emo, ska, hardcore, old school, prog, and pop

punk these days shouldnt be called punk though, the vast majority of punk has lost what being a punk was all about, The Offspring, Green Day, The Ramones..etc, were the ones whom i still listen to, the old school ... and some new prog punk such as Mars Volta on the side.

Bob Dylan (Especially from Freewheelin' Bob Dylan to John Wesley Harding.)

Do Make Say Think
Talking Heads (More people really should be into this band, beyond their later hits. You'll be Byrne'n Down The House even. :D)
The Clash
The Flaming Lips
Massive Attack
Portishead.

I prefer to classify in terms of bands rather than genres, seeing that almost all musical genres have a minority of good groups worth listening to....And much that isn't, shall we say.

WERD!!!!!

:) .... im quite varied nowdays, whereas a few years back i was mainly grunge/metal, i have since branched out into everything except Dance/Techno/RnB/HipHop/Rap....

i just dont like those styles....

I despise Rap music nowadays. The lyrics are only to do with sex... and don't let me get started on those video clips. Like where the black guy grabs his crotch and rubs himself up against 20 different barely clothed women. yuk... definately not my cup of tea.
Anyway...
I really like rock music i.e Red hot chili peppers, heavy metal i.e. Marilyn Manson, NIN, Korn and Chill out music i.e. Enigma.
And yes, sadly enough sometimes pop music when they get stuck in my head. Damn you Kylie!

& I have to agree with you smokedsalmon about rap music nowadays. I hate those video clips with the women being barely dressed & all
