I'm not sure why anyone would want to listen to new 'ordinary' punk music. Didn't they make enough records of that already? Just listen to one of those.

The more appropriate question may be: what type of music is now being made for which you can't find a lot of stuff like it from the past to listen to?

Having operated a record shop in the 90s it's kind of amazing how many "exiting", "original" new bands sound just like a lot of indie stuff from 15 years ago that-- unlike KBD punk -- most of these records are just filling 25 cent bins now and totally unknown to most kids making/buying the new music in the same mold (aside the few chosen canonical reps). 

For me, I tend to listen to more old stuff but it's the community and the (occasional) fun of new bands writing and playing that's important. 
I'm a whole lot quicker to criticize a band as being no fun than derivatory.

How many people who don't listen to punk rock does it take to change a light bulb?
