"Plastic punk" nghĩa là gì?


"Plastic punk" -> nghĩa là cố gắng nhưng lại thất bại ở việc cố bắt chước các phong cách, thái độ, xu hướng nổi tiếng trong các thập niên 70 và 80; nghĩa khác là nhóm nhạc, ca sĩ rock, punk cố bắt chước, tái tạo lại các phong cách của các nhóm nhạc rock, punk từ những năm 1970 đến đầu năm 1980.

Ví dụ
Surely he would see that I was nothing but a poseur (người điệu bộ, màu mè), an art-school plastic punk who’d only recently thrown away his Tonto’s Expanding Head Band albums (which I would have to buy again – at great expense – years later) and his flares (which I wouldn’t).

At this point, backhanded compliments from critics were boilerplate for Idol. A perusal (nghiên cứu kĩ) of contemporary reviews of classics like his self-titled debut, 1983’s Rebel Yell and 1986’s Whiplash Smile, reveal a pervasive attitude that Idol is an enjoyable poser, a two-dimensional peroxided plastic punk.

Sadly, most of them are too colourful for a family newspaper, but buy the book and check out the 1982 story of Billy Idol, the A-list actress (nữ diễn viên) and the head and shoulders photo! “Some people thought Billy Idol was a plastic punk but he was the real deal,” says Chris. “The stories of debauchery (trụy lạc) are endless.

Now I’ve said previously that IDLES aren’t to my taste. They insist (khăng khăng cho rằng) they aren’t punk, post-punk, hardcore or post-hardcore without specifying what they are. Well, to me, they’re plastic punk.
