Three rockers on Chelsea Bridge Two mods on a scooter. Mods and rockers were two conflicting British youth subcultures of the late 1950s to mid 1960s. Media coverage of the two groups fighting in 1964 sparked a moral panic about British youth, and they became widely perceived as violent, unruly troublemakers.
The mods and rockers conflict led sociologist Stanley Cohen to use the term "moral panic" in his study about the two youth subcultures, [5] in which he examined media coverage of the mod and rocker riots in the 1960s. [6] By 1965, conflicts between mods and rockers began to subside and mods increasingly gravitated towards pop art and psychedelia.

The mod revival is a subculture that started in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s and later spread to other countries (to a lesser degree).. The Mod Revival started with disillusionment with the punk scene when commercialism set in. [citation needed] It was featured in an article in Sounds music paper in 1976 and had a big following in Reading/London during that time.
