@pbsnews: How Black musicians have influenced punk music Punk music is known for its raw, aggressive sound, edgy fashion and mosh pits. It’s also known for being predominantly white, but that's changed a lot in recent years. Resurfaced music from its earliest days underscores that punk has always been influenced and shaped by Black artists as well. Stephanie Sy has the story for our arts and culture series, CANVAS. #pbsnews #newshour #pbsnewshour #punk #music #CANVAS #musichistory #purehell #badbrains #alttiktok #blackpunk #altmusic #ramones #talkingheads #detroit #philadelphia

Death is an insanely underrated band. I interviewed ‘em years ago. The nicest & humblest guys. I’m glad they’re getting the recognition they’re getting. ✌✌✌

I actually found Pure Hell thanks to Wendell and Wild. There's a sticker on the Cyclops boom box and I wanted to see if they were a real band.
They didn't influence punk, they created it!

They’re a great band but they barely influenced other punk bands and there were punkier bands in the 60s

I'm curious how Death influenced punk if their album wasn't released and they didn't play any live shows. Serious question.

These guys were from Detroit and yet somehow no one mentions the influence of The Stooges or The MC5?
