Punk funk (also hyphenated as punk-funk) is a music fusion genre that typically combine punk rock and funk influences. It gave way to and is closely associated with dance-punk, avant-funk, and funk metal, all of which are also alternatively described as punk funk.[1][2][3] The term punk funk has been used to describe Cansei de Ser Sexy by CSS,[4] Minutemen, whose nimble punk funk was compared to Gang of Four by music critic Simon Reynolds,[5] and "Precious" by The Jam, described by Uncut as "hypnotically, itchy, punk funk".[6]
