Pop punk - Pop punk Pop punk is also referred to as skate punk or, (less frequently and less accurately) Cali punk. Pop punk is generally considered by fans of hardcore punk to be a sellout of the original punk ethos. However on closer inspection, pop punk's legacy can be traced back as far as The Ramones.

Punk rock - Punk rock Punk rock (from 'punk', meaning rotten, worthless, or snotty; also a prison slang term for a person who is sexually submissive) usually refers to the anti-establishment music movement of the period 1976-80, exemplified by the Sex Pistols, The Damned, The Clash and The Ramones, and to subsequent music scenes that share key characteristics with these first-generation "punks." The term is sometimes also applied to the fashions or the irreverant "do-it-yourself" attitude associated with this musical movement. The term "Punk rock" was originally used to describe the primitive guitar-based rock and roll of untutored US bands of the mid-1960s such as The Seeds from Southern California and The Standells from Boston. Probably the first use of the term "punk" music was in Lester Bangs' 1971.

For each city, significant local events, bands, record companies and venues are listed in alphabetical order.

Vegan Reich - Vegan Reich were a 1980s American punk band formed by Sean Muttaqi, embracing something similar to a straight edge philosophy (they did not drink/do drugs), but taking it to a more extreme conclusion, ie, advocating the developement of a vegan society, where people that violate the laws of that society could possibly face 'extermination'. Followers of the band where sometimes also involved in the deep ecology movement called Hardline, expressing a rhetoric that seemed to be a strange hybrid of both anarchism and extreme authoritarianism (if you violated someones rights, you could be subject to losing your own). None of their record releases ever dented the Billboard Top 50, and for the time being omnivores the world over continue to sleep safe in their beds at night. See also: hardcore punk.

When Dave Mustaine formed Megadeth, he recorded the original version of "The Four Horsemen" called "Mechanix", for Megadeth's first album Killing Is My Business (1985). "Mechanix" is somewhat less complicated structurally than "The Four Horsemen." An early re-issue of the album by Elektra Records added the songs "Blitzkrieg" and "Am I Evil?". Kill 'Em All peaked at #120 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, but not until 1988 (see 1988 in music)..

Jihad - remove obstructions impeding the propagation of Islam in non-Islamic countries." As Lt. Col. M. M. Qureshi points out in his Landmarks of Jihad, "only a war which has an ultimate religious purpose can be termed as jihad." (Shayk Muhammad Abu Zahra, Egyptian member of the Academy of Islamic Research). There is nothing historically unique about this position, although such clear (and popular) advocacy of forced conversion and proselytization is not permissible according to the laws of Islam. See also the "Reputation and evaluation" section of Crusade for a discussion of how the terms "Crusade" and "Jihad" are perceived differently in the West and the Islamic world. Many analysts hold that the severe economic and governmental differences between the Islamic world and the rest of the world contribute to fueling this notion.

Zack de la Rocha - and also to help his father destroy his paintings -- paintings which had helped him establish a sense of Chicano identity. After a while, he was unable to cope with this lifestyle, and stayed with his mother in Irvine, which at the time was "perhaps one of the whitest cities" in Southern California. The lifestyle Beto forced upon Zack brought on culture shock, and an identity crisis. He was alienated from the Chicano community, and was an outsider in the California suburbs where Chicanos were typically only seen doing menial work. In high school, he became involved in the punk and hardcore scene, and played guitar and sang for a straight edge band called Hardstance. His interest in bands like the Sex Pistols and Bad Religion turned into an appreciation for.
Inside Out - Inside Out Inside Out was a hardcore punk band from Orange County, California, most notable for being the first band for which Rage Against the Machine's Zack de la Rocha was the frontman. (Before fronting Inside Out, he also played guitar in a straight edge band called Hardstance, and another band called Farside.) Their existence was relatively brief -- they released a single 7" EP, No Spiritual Surrender (album), in 1990, on Revelation Records. They played several shows and even toured the east coast once before their breakup in 1991. They had written material for a second record, to be titled Rage Against the Machine (whence the name for de la Rocha's next band came), but the band broke up shortly after their guitarist, Vic DiCara, left the band to.

Heavy metal music - song "Born to be Wild", or the William S. Burroughs story "The Heavy Metal Kid". The word "heavy" (meaning serious or profound) had entered beatnik/counterculture slang some time earlier, and references to "heavy music" -- typically slower, more amplified variations of standard pop fare -- were already common; indeed, Iron Butterfly's 1968 debut album was entitled Heavy. The fact that Led Zeppelin (whose moniker came partly in reference to Keith Moon's jest that they would "go over like a lead balloon) incorporated a heavy metal into its name may have sealed the usage of the term. Regardless of its origin, heavy metal may have been used as a jibe initially but was quickly adopted by its adherents. Other, already-established bands, such as Deep Purple, who had origins in pop or progressive.
