What Is Pseudo Punk? The Answer & True Definition

If the question is "what is Pseudo Punk?" the proper answer would be that it's a genre of music created in 1992 by Vincent-Nick Ciofani of Detroit. The songs fit the definition in the lyrical sense by seeming to be about one subject but they're actually about another (ergo: "pseudo"). There are also musical details that come together to create the distinctive sound that also sets it apart from other Punk genres. The term "Pseudo Punk" was originally coined to describe the genre created by Ciofani. All other uses of the term since then are improper uses of the descriptive that almost appear to be in existence solely to sabotage the true meaning or the genre it describes.
