Punk... A Genre That Made Popular Again In The 1990s Thanks To TheOffSpring

The OffSpring helped bring, 'Punk' in to the 1990s!

I would say that between the early to mid 1990s what was popular was, 'Grundge', and as the middle turned in the final years of the 1990s, as well the final days of the new millennium, that it finally turned over to Goth for some, and R&B for others...

But I would say (and this was true for a couple of different genre's that found this to be true... There is just one that I was thinking of that really was unfairly underrated that really did a nice job of keeping us kids entertained... That being Punk!

Punk... Now in the past Punk was a super star, in the 70s and 80s with bands like, 'Pink Floyd', you could say Punk really carved out a nice niche for it's.
Well by the 90s, they were still doing good, but not the same as it was when, 'Dead Kennedy's' were producing such amazing albums as, 'Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables' (1978)...

Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables was an amazing album that came out during the heyday of the Punk genre in the 70s! 

The fortunes of the world of punk in the 1990s began to change though with bands such as, 'The Offspring'... I mean these guys began producing some truly amazing music that would make it's way in to the hearts and minds of not just the music world, but also in the world of movies and TV...

A couple of classic examples of this of course being there appearance in 1997's classic Horror/Comedy, Idle Hands (1997), when in the dance scene, you can see The Offsrping clearly as the band that is playing at the concert hall... Also another great example of this is when they did a song for the classic 1998 soundtrack for the movie, 'The Faculty'!

There are a lot of great examples of punk out there, but to there credit, I do believe that The Offspring helped bring the world of Punk to the final years before the new millennium!
