skate punk
Fast rebellious boarding music
Skate punk is a subgenre of punk rock associated with skateboarding culture, characterized by fast tempos, melodic hooks, and lyrics about skating, youth rebellion, and suburban alienation.
Bands like NOFX, Pennywise, and early Offspring defined the sound that dominated skate videos in the 1990s: The skate punk soundtrack made every kickflip feel epic.
