When punk turned to new wave and new wave began to lose it's edge, grunge came along and reminded people about the rebel nature rock needs once again...

Another great punk band was the Plasmatics. Wendy O. Williams was one of my idols growing up. She committed suicide leaving this note.
"I don't believe that people should take their own lives without deep and thoughtful reflection over a considerable period of time. I do believe strongly, however, that the right to do so is one of the most fundamental rights that anyone in a free society should have. For me much of the world makes no sense, but my feelings about what I am doing ring loud and clear to an inner ear and a place where there is no self, only calm."
