Oh yeah they were always punk. I do like the black album. But people refer to them as a goth band too often for my taste
  11:30pm
Dean:

I personally have issues with post-this and post-that. For example, I don't accept that there is such a thing as postmodernism. We will never escape modernism. It's what we are. Try hard, but you won't exceed it. Similarly, post-punk is at best a practical index to music. It doesn't help us characterize a distinctive style.
Avatar 11:32pm

yeah I mean people are still putting out "postpunk" albums, like you can't get much more post than 40 years later

I keep waiting for the post-Baroque trend.
Avatar 11:34pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

I think one major Movement / Era (what have you) has the seeds of the next & it's a sort of natural progression. A thing of beauty is a joy forever ? It characterized Modernism that one had a Manifesto - & these things were a matter of life or death - your Artistic Thesis & your Style. That implied the obliteration of all the previous things. But it characterizes PostModernism that one can pastiche any Style one wishes. & mix them up. Whatever ...& no one much expects it to change the world, I'm afraid.

Pastiche of any style has always been a tactic. I don't understand why it suddenly became a thing in the '70s or '80s. Modernism thrives on pastiche.

I happen to also be into Astrology - & some of us reckoned 'generation' wasn't the right term @ all. What is an actual generation ? 30, 50, 100 years? Some of us decided to use the term 'Age Group' to be more precise. & we delineate them by the signs the slow outer planets are in ...by which I am an Xer, whereas in the population demographic I am still in Nov. 1963 in the PostWar Baby Boom in population that lasted until '64...

In England in the early 1960s they did speak of 'Beat groups' actually.

...the question is how much TheBeatles were actually riffing on the Beats - the poets who inspired the Beatniks - Kerouac & Ginsberg et al. Also a nod to Buddy Holly's Crickets.

Very possible. Of course, we do have the Buddy Holly worship of Bobby Fuller

DavidS: Harrison gave credit in his opinion 50/50 to Lennon & Stu Sutcliffe ...I don't quite believe Royston ? Yet - he's proof they trafficked with Poets very early on.

The silent generation, MHLee, was my parents'. How does that fit you chronologically speaking? I really have a hard time accepting generational divisions. They seem to the most part to me to be meaningless.
