History
Punk funk emerged in the late 1970s, however, it was eclipsed in the 1980s by dance-punk, avant-funk, funk metal, and later in the 1980s, all of which are also alternatively described as punk funk. Despite this, punk funk has been occasionally used in more recent years to describe bands such as CSS and their 2005 album Cansei de Ser Sexy.
Beginning in the 1980s, punk funk itself metamorphosised into dance-punk, avant-funk, and funk metal. Almost all punk funk bands were swept up into these new genres, Gang of Four has been described as dance-punk,[7] as well as CSS. The Jam split up in 1982, and its member Paul Weller formed The Style Council a year later, which saw Weller take his music in a more soulful direction,[8] which was only hinted at on later Jam releases. Following Minutemen's 1985 breakup, George Hurley and Mike Watt would take their music into a more experimental vein with Firehose, although hints of Minutemen's blend of punk, funk, and free jazz could be heard.[9]
