Anarcho-punk is a subgenre of punk rock that embodies a fiercely political ethos, advocating for anarchism and social justice through aggressive, often raw musical expression. Emerging in the late 1970s and 1980s, it combines fast, hard-hitting instrumentals with outspoken, anti-establishment lyrics. Bands like The Restarts and Subhumans amplify messages of anti-capitalism, anti-war, and anti-authoritarianism, employing DIY ethics in both their music production and distribution. Iconoclasts like Chumbawamba infuse their sound with eclectic influences, while Japanese pioneers like G.I.S.M. blend high-intensity punk with other extreme music forms. Anarcho-punk remains a subversive force, deeply committed to activism and community-building.
