within the larger society with which the larger society must

contend. 

A subculture group is a social-cultural formation that exists as a sort of island or enclave within the larger society. 

The common elements of a subculture include:
 relatively unique values and norms, 
 a special slang not shared with society, 
 separate channels of communication, 
 unique styles and fads, 
 a sense of primary group belonging seen in the use of 'us' and 'them', 
 a hierarchy of social patterns that clarify the criteria for prestige and leadership, 
receptivity to the charisma of leaders and
 gratification of special unmet needs.

1960s that was characterized by nonviolent anarchy, concern for the

environment, and rejection of Western materialism. Also known as flower power, this movement originated in San Francisco, California. This group formed a politically outspoken, antiwar, artistically prolific counterculture in North America and Europe. Their colorful psychedelic style was inspired by drugs.This style emerged in fashion, graphic art, and music by bands such as Love, the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and PinkFloyd.

it is asked who the first band of this grouping

was, many persons would answer that it was the Sex Pistols.      This group formed a style to disassociate themselves from society. They refused to dress conservatively, wearing clothing such as ripped or torn jeans, t-shirts or button-down shirts with odd and sometimes offensive remarks labeled on them. This clothing was sometimes held together with band patches or safety pins, and the clothing rarely matched; such patterns as plaid and leopard skin was a commonplace. It was not unusual to see a large amount of body piercing and oddly crafted haircuts. They dressed (and still do) like this to separate themselves from society norms.     Young people belonging to this group believed in separating themselves from society as much as possible; thus the odd dress and/or rude style. Many times these young people are associated with anarchy. Although most of them were about anarchy, They believed that government was evil, and that a government society could never be perfect; the government was as far from Utopia as one could get. By the early 1980’s, they went underground and underwent many changes. These changes were the formation of subcultures.
The music they played was aggressive form of rock music that coalesced into an international (though predominantly Anglo-American) movement in 1975-80..     Black leather jackets adorned with shiny metal spikes and studs, combat boots, spike multi-colored mohawks (mohawk - a strip of hair left on the top of the head, running from front to back).

of the punk scene. Their music differs from punk to

the effect that it eliminated the chainsaw sound of punk and replaced it with a droning sound of guitar, bass, and drums. The Young people of this group also believed that society was too conservative, but they also felt that no one accepted them, so they viewed themselves as outcasts of society. They are preoccupied with introspection and melancholia. They are inclined to speak poetically of 'beautiful deaths' and vampiric sympathies. They wear almost nothing but black, perhaps with a little white or even red. Girls have a penchant for nets and lace and complex sinister jewelry; with their long black hair, black dresses and pasty complexions, they look positively Victorian. Boys have long hair and often wear black leather jackets and can at times be mistaken for heshers. They dye their hair black and wear black eyeliner and even black lipstick. They usually apply white makeup to the rest of their faces. The music they listen to also carries the name “….." and seems to have descended from Joy Division, but typically the vocalist uses an especially cheesy 50's Count Dracula enunciation pattern.

a thick, abrasive, distorted guitar sound. Grunge evolved from punk

in the Seattle, Washington, area and came to prominence with the chart success of the band Nirvana in 1991. Grunge is said to have originated as marriage between Seattle's hesher and punk scenes. Characteristic of most of these bands is punk rock drums and vocals, hesher hair and guitar, and working-class clothing that is rarely washed. Lyrics frequently confront such uncomfortable subjects as unpopularity, alienation from divorced parents, disease, the hypocrisy and allure of religion, heroin, and raw lust. Grunge may or may not be a useful term to describe a segment of youth delinquency, but with historical perspective, it is best used to describe a record company phenomenon. Grunge was a revolution, the revolution where punk rock was decisively injected into mainstream rock and roll. Numerous culture makers embarrassed themselves in the rush to exploit the most vital white youth culture in years. Grunge "fashion"--the perennial flannel shirt/combat boots/ripped jeans uniform of suburban burnouts everywhere -- was suddenly used as an exotic novelty by designers.
