punkier
Having more attitude
Punkier is the comparative form of punky, meaning more characteristic of punk rock style or attitude—more rebellious, raw, or aggressively unconventional: Her new album sounds punkier than the last one.
It can also describe something more decayed or spongy, like rotting wood, though the punk rock sense dominates contemporary usage.
