22/09/05 - 'Punk' music has always been blamed for having a negative effect on society; things like public violence and extreme ways of dressing have given it a bad reputation. But can we blame people's actions purely on the music they listen to? Is the media that much of an influence on today's youth? I thought this would be an interesting topic to look into, so I asked seven bands and three music promoters to give me their opinions.
