Garage Punk

Garage punk marries the raw, unpolished energy of garage rock with the fast-paced, rebellious spirit of punk, creating a vibrant, gritty sound that's as infectious as it is unrefined. Characterized by its lo-fi aesthetics, straightforward riffs, and passionately disaffected vocals, the genre harks back to the '60s and '70s garage bands while injecting the velocity and attitude of punk from the '70s onwards. Artists within this sphere, like Protex and Royal Headache, showcase a range of sonic textures from melodic hooks to aggressive, fast-paced punk anthems. The lyrics often explore themes of disenchantment, romance, and social defiance, delivered with an earnestness that resonates with a sense of authenticity. Garage punk bands, with their raucous energy and DIY ethos, maintain a dedicated underground following, celebrating the genre's raw, garage-band roots while pushing its boundaries.
