As an obligate night owl i really dig this. Sounds kinda like lunar punk dips more into biopunk than Solarpunk does, which is also epic. Thanks for covering this!
Genetically modified bioluminescent plants are also a big part of it. Also I personally think of lunarpunk as the yin to the yang of solarpunk. But still another solid video. PS: Solarpunk has become more definable in its details, like permaculture being a major part of it, not just lunarpunk. But I would broadly sum it up as a counter movement for a harmonic balance between human society, wild nature, and advanced technology for the wellbeing of all. It’s a never ending process for balance, rather than a utopian destination.
I would generally agree due to it's darker undercurrent, however for it to be Lunarpunk it does need to be more Utopic instead of dystopic or ambitopic. Otherwise it's more Gothpunk or just straight up horror.
We NEED stories to understand stuff. From the man buying 15 watermelons (teaching math) to the man breaking into a house and suing the homeowner when he cut his leg (teaching law) and ect.
idk why but i stated watching this and suddenly rememembered getting dragged out of class by my arm in 2nd grade dragged me into the office, because i wouldnt stop singing "youre flag decal wont get you into heaven anymore" by John Prine (i knew every word already, I grew up in a musical family with my first recorded vocal on a hippie/christian/liberal charity fundraiser album. around the same time period. like 1982, it would be 1989 before i discovered punk, after a short hip hop fling followed by a couple years of Iron Maiden worship, although i had already been obsessed with punk fashiom after seeing a group of punks in SF on a road trip with my parents age 10, in particular a really hot 20 something year old (or could have been 17, when your ten it looks about the same, but she had a 10 inch platinum pink mohawk and tight leather pants, studded jacket and a midrif torn leopard print top, freud would probably credit my obsession with leopard print to that isolated moment of pre teen early onset puberty horniness, in fact just maybe i would have never discovered punk otherwise, no way to know unless i had a time machine, but thats when punk became equated with "cool" in my horny little brain.
no, go to a show, punk in any of its incarnations can only be truly understood or appreciated if you go to some shows and talk to the people you meet, and if its your first realize some will be asss holes and scenesters that will cold shoulder you, esp until you are a familiar face at shows, but others are open and welcoming and willing to give you a chance as long as you dont look like a cop or come across as fake, I live in PDX where we still have couple good venues and get national acts, including those that are DIY but our local and underground scene is faltering, (but still alive) most of the punks i grew up with are dead, and those left have mosttly died now from fentanyl leavung my generation bedly wounded and destitute, we need all true subgenres of punk to come together and support eachother, no one else is going to save punk rock from factionalism and exploitation followed by discardment and becoming a footnote in a history text, except all of us working together. Peace and love to all the real punks.
lol na man I didn’t mean the punks themselves. we are indeed a warm welcoming people, mostly. I ment the subject matter of the songs in Folkpunk and even then that’s not a fair assessment either. Maybe it is the evolution of hippies but I ain’t say it.
thats not fair, firstly cuz there are no remaining hippies, they all sold out and bought in, and disco and cocaine finished off those who didnt. it happened because real punks gave up or lost the comforts of homes and jobs and still had the need to create, so they found a way to to it while train hopping, hitch hiking, or rubber tramping the country, i mean, just my little 15 watt tube combo amp is like 35 pounds, and my 4x12 cab i cant even carry up a flight of stairs (a short one even) without help, would be a little hard to travel with unless i had a van that ran reliably at the least, and good luck to a drummer trying to hop a train with their kit, it was an innovation born of necessity like all the best ones are.
With biopunk, I have to mention one of my favorite unexpected biopunk games: ULTRAKILL. Yes, Ultrakill is biopunk: V1 and most other robots are fueled from blood and have INTERNAL ORGANS, Demons are literally twisted flesh made animate by Hell... quite biopunk despite its mostly machine-based exterior
If there is Pharmapunk Content I, A Baby Bat Goth, Would like to Recommend, It Would Be Galerians: Rion. It Also has Other Punk Subgenre elements in it Too. (i.e. Biopunk, Decopunk, Cyberpunk, etc.) I also Would like to See Your Take on Gothpunk, That is Unless You already Have done so. With That, I bid You Farewell. 🪦🧛♂️🦇🩸💀
Don’t know that one but the name sounds interesting. Haven’t covered gothpunk yet it’s on the docket for October . But I have done Dreadpunk What's Up Punks? Dreadpunk Remix ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qJ5-dfoeOMU.html
Not as much of a fan of the music genres as i am the scifi/fantasy/science fantasy fiction genres; but still an awesome video nonetheless! 🎉 Keep up the good work fr
Crust punk is my fuckin JAM! Ya'll should check out Fall of Efrafa once ya can. It's crust, but with cellos, and their songs are all inspired off Watership down. Seriously, they slap so hard.
Can you make a video on a punk i recently discovered? It's called theopunk. Quick rundown is that it's basically something to do with religion (usually of the christian variety)
Biopunk strangely has a 90s feel to it. Like it’s the reaction to the culture and zeitgeist of the time. Has there been biopunk stories before and after, definitely, but I can’t help but notice it a lot in 90s movies.
Not a bad video. I maybe disagree on your take that splatterpunk stuff doesn't have endings but agree to disagree. I also would argue Splatterpunk/Splatter media isn't exclusive to Horror. 80% sure is but when you have movies like Riki-Oh, Starship Troopers, VFW, The Judge Dredd Comics (or most 2000 AD comics really), Toxic Avenger or even Robocop which sure have really intense splatter and gore but are contextualized in a different genre, there's an argument that Splatter media isn't just a Horror thing however a majority of them are for obvious reasons.
@@NylasWUPMirrors Edge is a pretty fun game, but yeah, it does actually have some NanoPunk elements in it, it’s mostly relating to the story of the game, I don’t want to spoil it though.
This is also my favorite fictional subgenre. I'd recommend Larry Correia's HARD MAGIC series in addition to the Arcane Casebook for book series of this type. Dark City was excellent. Thanks for shouting it out.
@NylasWUP The Machine Games ones New Order, Old Blood, New Collisus (we don't talk about yung blood cause it was bad.) I feel like those are good examples of dieselpunk.
They are and they would have made it in if at the time of making the video I had played any of them. I did give them a shout out in my video on Decopunk
Bloodborne lore not necessarily a fan of how these narratives are told but it's also really good when u find out its kinda of like life in that way u know what u seek answers too
Question: Is there such thing as "Strandbeest-punk"? Like the stranbeest things made by Theo Janson but all technology is powered by wind and compressed air the same way?
