It featured fast, hard-edged music with short, simple songs and stripped-down instrumentation. Punk embraced a DIY ethic with many bands self-producing recordings. By the early 1980s, faster and more aggressive styles like hardcore and Oi! had become dominant. Punk fashion was intentionally anti-materialistic, featuring unkempt hairstyles and plain, inexpensive clothing in contrast to hippie and disco styles of the time.

Dancing with Myself is a Punk - Rock song released in 1980. Punk rock is a rock music
