    If it is done by skinheads then it is automatically NOT punk. Just like No Doubt does not make “ska”, but especially, very much, absolutely more so!

      That’s an interesting take. I do agree that “No Doubt” is not ska. But than again, I’ve never thought that it might be ska.

      I think “skinhead punk” is a very succinct, very separate subgenre of punk. But punk nonetheless.

      I get why you deny it though, because punk is supposed to be the very political opposite of that. In that sense I do agree with you that skinhead punk is not punk at all.
