"Although punk is distinctly more rough-edged than glam rock with its metal spikes, black leather, and mohawks, it was still heavily influenced by the 1970s counterculture championed by David Bowie. Glam rock is about all things flamboyant and androgynous, and what's more flamboyant than a mohawk, anyway? Glam rock was born in Britain, where rock-n-rollers took to glittery makeup, platform shoes, and outrageous costumes. They defied all social expectations and gender norms to strut about in metallic outfits. Glam rock later diverged into various different subcultures, most notably punk rock in the mid-1970s. Punks were anti-establishment, anti-consumerism garage rockers who represented the extremes of young rebellion. Rather than glitter, they flaunted offensive and vulgar clothing and were often associated with S&M and hard drugs. These movies are an ode to punk and glam rock, featuring characters who ditch their ordinary lives to pursue their dreams of musical chaos." - whatnerd.com
