Second Wave Punk

Circa 1985 and after.

The second wave of punk rock encompasses the said music genre and sub-genres in the period from 1985 to present. A generation immediately following the first wave of punk which saw bands such as Black Flag, Circle Jerks, The Clash, Dead Kennedys, The Descendents, The Ramones and The Sex Pistols shape and reshape this unique form of rock music.

The second wave of punk rock music has seen arguably one of the toughest challanges the genre has had to face in its history. It was to be a period where punk rock and the values tied to it would slowly enter a decline as it, like so many other pure and raw forms of music, were to be raped by the mainstream. In an age where pop-culture, the general media and youth networks (see: MTV) have a disturbing degree of control of the minds the world's youth, the task for the punk rock scene to hold its original principles and values whilst continuing to thrive was always going to be a difficult task.

Nonetheless, despite the aggressive attempts by major music corporations and MTV to 'steal', rape and redifine punk rock as a money-making mainstream fad (see: Faux Punk)the resiliance of punk has shone through and the scene is holding its ground with countless talented underground bands continuing the "DIY" tradition and blasting out the tunes for punk aficionadoes everywhere.

Examples of bands exclusively from the second wave include:

NOFX, Pennywise, Propagandhi, 98 Mute, Pulley, Dropkick Murpheys, Face To Face, Millencolin (pre-2002), Bigwig, Lagwagon.

Examples of bands that are NOT second wave punk or, for that matter, punk at all. Bands bred by the corporates to take punk, rape it, redifine it, and use it for their own purposes (see: MTV, Faux Punk, Poser, Homosexual):

Green Day, Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Sum 41, Busted, Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, Blink 182.

wave the white fag

When a homosexual performs a sexually explicit action or makes a verbal comment that results in a straight man having to walk away instead of punching the homosexual in the face.

After my gay friend deep throated his french fries I had to walk away and wave the white fag.

Toronto Tidal Wave

When a group of women ejaculate on someone's face. The person can be either laying down or on their knees while the women would be surrounding the person in a circle or in single file line. Similar to the male version of this, the bukkake.

I just got a Toronto Tidal Wave from a lacrosse team who happened to be from Europe.

Google Wave

A hand gesture made to simultaneously say goodbye to someone and express sorrow for having failed their expectations.

Honey, I'm sorry I wasn't the man you thought I was. I guess it's time we part ways. I guess it's time to... Google wave.

Fifth Wave Ska

I believe fifth wave ska is spanish-ska. There are many debates about if there is a fourth wave ska and nth wave ska. I say it's agreeable that Streetlight Manifesto defined fourth wave ska has ska heavily influenced by horns.

Fifth wave ska probably should be spanish-ska because if any one attended spanish-ska is it's own culture and it is big community already.

Fifth wave ska, La Resistencia, La Banda Skalavera, Red Store Bums, La Panteon Rococo, etc.
