The punk movement failed when in 1975 it became an exported commodity to American youth. The
, particularly Sid Vicious, are often portrayed as emblematic representations of anarchy. The
' music has often been perceived as a response to the manufactured pop music of the mid-
1970s. Ironically though, the band was conceived and managed by Malcom McLaren, the anti-Dick Clark.
They are a forth generation fabricated boy band, following The Monkees, The Jackson Five and The
Osmond Brothers, and the signify punk's demise with an ordered sense of marketing. This converted
the movement from a statement of philosophy into one of fashion, lifestyle and capitalism. The contemp-
orary punk ideology exists as a form of tourism. By that I mean through fashion, one can nostalgically
symbolize and therefore participate in urban fantasies of anarchy.
