No, punk started in the mid-to-late sixties with the Velvet Underground, The Stooges, and The MC5, had its heyday in the seventies with The Ramones, The Heartbreakers, The Dead Boys, Richard Hell and the Voidoids, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, etc., etc., and was over by the early eighties. There were still punk bands around -- The Ramones, for example, continued touring well into the nineties -- but punk as a movement was over by 1982, at the latest.

A faster, thicker and heavier version of punk rock. Hardcore punk developed in the early 80s, in the wake of the first era of punk.
