Punk emerged in the early 1970's with Iggy Pop as the father of it. Post New Wave in the 1980's is all about melody & experimentation with musical electronic instruments (i.e. drum machines, efx boxes, sequencers, loops, and music video for the first time, etc.). Things evolve; then someone says "Hey, we need some more bass here!" and it sticks. Heavy bass is now. That will come and go like other music trends. The only thing I noticed, as far as drugs go, was that the Beatles, Rolling Stones, et al's music became increasingly sleepy as they got off booze and moved into LSD & Js. It was like the energy got zapped out of their music. A lot of mellow groups evolved during that time. You may now call their music fit for the elevators.
