Adelaide punk is an energetic subgenre of punk rock that hails from the streets of Adelaide, South Australia. It's known for its raw and unapologetic sound, blending traditional punk's fast tempos and attitude with the distinct Aussie spirit. Known for its gritty and forthright lyrical content, the scene addresses themes from everyday struggles to socio-political issues with a sense of camaraderie and local pride. With bands like Bad//Dreems and West Thebarton, the genre embodies a garage-rock feel, while others, such as Teenage Joans, add a pop-punk infectiousness to the mix. Adelaide punk often showcases gritty vocals, driving guitar riffs, and a fierce rhythm section that captures the do-it-yourself ethos and the tight-knit community from which it originated.
