People... punk is a state of mind. Its not an outfit, a haircut, or hair-color. I would call these guys more punk than any band that has mohawks and safety pins... That is just another uniform.
If it takes you an hour to get ready in the morning, because you're putting on your punk clothes, then you missed the whole point.
@tombuttner I was just saying that yesterday to my friend! It's a state of mind, ingrained in your psyche. Your haircut or clothes don't always make you who you are, although personality and belief does come out in that.
So they all have to be the same guy to be labeled punk, and their music style is far from pop, pop is an outdated term used back in the day when mtv, now known as multimedia television channel actually played music. What people now call pop is actually just stuff that plays during reality tv shows. True story.
this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd
I would actually say this is kinda punk in the same vein of The Clash. It is more punk than all that Good Charlotte faux pop punk crap.

he says punk band because this was before indie was a big thing, and they probably didn't think about it.

I guess drinking beer and your drummer wearing a black flag t-shirt makes you punk.
Either way wolf parade = good band

well, if you think about it, it is pretty punk. indie rock is just punk with a pop sensibility.
