"Cocky punk rock"
[edit]The article has this unbalanced sentence in it since 2011 (the "an agressive" part was removed in a recent edit):
Performing for hundreds of crowded and sold-out shows, The Knockouts have been described as delivering a “cocky punk rock” sound with [an agressive] rockabilly technique.
I have trouble sourcing this and it's unclear who described The Knockouts as such and where the "cocky punk rock" thing even comes from. Searching for "The Knockouts" "cocky punk rock" -wikipedia gives AI-generated slop wikis and user-generated descriptions from Amazon, eBay and YouTube, all of which most likely sourced the claim from this very article. "cocky punk rock" does sound catchy and is funny to say out loud, so it makes sense why people (and AI) would snatch it.
I think the claim should be removed, but I'm not sure. Can anybody find an origin for it? — EmoryNB (they/them) talk contribs 13:30, 1 August 2026 (UTC)
- The same quote exists in the other article, The Knockouts, where it has been marked as CN since March 2014:
