What are your opinions?Your favorites?Your defintion of the genre?Just thought id post a topic for us since most of this forum is dominated by hip hop and metal.Get at me!

out of personal opinion rather than what's considered critically great i would go for black flag

my vote = stooges. but punks not my thing so half those bands im not that familiar with

im more fond of modern Punk, but id say the stooges or the dead kennedy's

I'm a massive fan of all of those apart from Sex Pistols and The Misfits, but personal favourites would be The Clash, The Buzzcocks, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, NOFX and maybe Crass.

Minor Threat.

-AC

NOFX are pretty good,as far as modern punk goes,Pennywise is a good band.I loved all of their "From the Ashes" album.I can't believe I forgot to put Bad Religion on there though,theyre one of my favs.

The Clash for me.

The Clash for me. Same

Personal favorite is the Dead Kennedys. As far as who is the best, I would say if not DK, then either the Clash or Minor Threat.

The dead pets, Rancid (or lars frederksen and the bastards) Deathbed repentence,Subhumans, Street Dogs, Mustard plug, operation ivy, streetlight manifesto and darkbuster are the punk bands that generally fill my listening ears lately.

The Ramones and Sex Pistols.

punk rock christmas and its a wonderful world kick ass

Rancid is a great band.I still havent heard Lars's side project though but i've heard theyre awesome.

Lars Frederiksen and the bastards produced some very fine punk over two albums. You should definitely give the two albums a listen if you are a fan of melodic punk like Rancid. Is Rancid's new album still releasing in June?

Out of those listed on the poll, The Stooges are easily the best but I'm not sure I would classify them as old school punk. Dead Kennedys and The Clash are also among the better ones on the list.

DK, Black Flag, Bad Brains, Flipper, Circle Jerks, Minutemen and Misfits do it for me

nice sig, magic

thanks

Hmm, The Ramones is amazing. But like many others said, Rancid is awesome too. From the list, The Ramones, but I like Rancid as much or even more.
