Punk is one of those real confusing terms these days... Cuz To me Blink 182 and Green day are top 40 Bands... If you're from the west coast, the Descendants and Suicidal Tendencies are Punk, if you're from the East Coast, say New York, than the Ramones are punk, but if you're from the DC area, Bad Religion, Minor Threat, Fugazi and the like are punk. These bands are, in my mind, particullary innovative and influential, hardly the immature, whiney version of regular rock, that's emo  .
Now there's the whole blanket "Indie" statement, Indie Rock, Indie Pop, Indie Folk, is there such a thing as Indie Punk?
Me, I'm not a fan of any genre, I just listen to what I hear...
