On the edge of the 30th an­niver­sary of punk rock, Punk's Not Dead takes you in­to the sweaty un­der­ground clubs, back­yard par­ties, record­ing stu­dios, and yes, shop­ping malls and sta­di­um shows where punk rock mu­sic and cul­ture con­tin­ue to thrive. Thir­ty years af­ter bands like the Ra­mones and the Sex Pis­tols in­fa­mous­ly shocked the sys­tem with their hard, fast, sta­tus-​quo-​killing rock, the longest-​run­ning punk band in his­to­ry is draw­ing big­ger crowds than ev­er, "pop-​punk" bands have found suc­cess on MTV, and kids too young to drive are form­ing bands that car­ry the torch for punk's raw, im­me­di­ate sound. Mean­while, "punk" has be­come a mar­ket­ing con­cept to sell ev­ery­thing from cars to vod­ka, and dyed hair and pierc­ings mark a rite of pas­sage for thou­sands of kids. Can the true, non­con­formist punk spir­it still ex­ist in to­day's cor­po­ra­tized cul­ture? Fea­tur­ing in­ter­views, per­for­mances, and be­hind-​the-​scenes jour­neys with the bands, la­bels, fans, and press who keep punk alive, Punk's Not Dead dares to jux­ta­pose pop-​punk's mu­sic and lifestyle against the roots in the 70s and 80s, re­sult­ing in un­ex­pect­ed rev­e­la­tions.
A DIY search for the soul of a sub­cul­ture and a cel­e­bra­tion of all things loud, fast, and spiked, Punk's Not Dead shows punk is stronger and more rel­e­vant to­day than it's ev­er been.
