Punk 'n' Roll (Punk Rock 'n' Roll) is a subgenre of punk rock that mixes elements from Proto-Punk, Hard Rock, Glam, Streetpunk, NYC punk, and American Oi!.[citation needed]
Punk 'n' Roll's main influence comes from both the New York Dolls and Iggy Pop & The Stooges. The New York Dolls gave Punk 'n' Roll its driving energry, while the Stooges song Search & Destroy set the standard for the Punk 'n' Roll sound. The Proto-Punk bands, such as The Stooges and England's Glory can be placed under the term of Punk 'n' Roll, as well as NYC punk bands, such as The Dictators and Wayne County.
Hard Rock bands, especially AC/DC, have inspired many Punk 'n' Roll bands. That influence is emulated by the band The Backstreet Girls, a Punk 'n' Roll band that began in 1984.[citation needed]. The Punk 'n' Roll sound began to shift over the years, showing the influence of American Oi! and streetpunk. One example of this is The Bodies, a Sonoma, CA, band who mixes the two genres into one.
