Punk Rock...

[a nirvana fan]

Punk Rock is a very weird kind of music as the bands always differ from each other for example there's the 1970's bands like The Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Adverts, X, and other various to the modern punk bands like New Found Glory, Blink 182, and there's the inbetweens like Black Flag, Bad Religion, Green Day and others...so what are your favourite punk bands, singers, guitarist and other things based around Punk Rock.

My favourite bands are
Misfits
Green Day
Black Flag
The Sex Pistols
The Ramones
The Clash
Bad Religion
The Adverts
The Jam
Goldfinger
Pennywise
And I could name about 20 more but the above are my favourite ones

I really dont count a lot of those as punk, but whatever floats your boat. I love punk rock, I live for it. I go to shows almost constantly, and I love my pretty mohawk.

Some of my favorite bands... Narcoleptic Youth, The Adicts, Swindle, The Unseen, The Buzzcocks, GBH, US Bombs, UK Subs, The Skulls, Subhumans, 46 Short, 8 Bucks Experiment... offhand, those're my faves.

I love punk. Especially circle pits at awesome shows.

I'd be glad to show you more, tell me what you think of these.

I've found almost all of these bands by going to shows almost constantly. In my town we have a venue called Showcase Theatre, and nearby towns have Glass House, The Scene, House of Blues, and so on. I've been in the punk scene for a long long time, so I've had exposure to a lot of local bands and had the pleasure to see a lot of old time vets (like The Adicts).

Punk Rock got cancer the day Black Flag broke up and died the day Kurt Cobain passes away. This new 'Punk Rock' doesnt have my respect.

[TheAbominatrix]

None of what I've listed is 'new' punk rock. The punk scene is still going strong, and bands like The Adicts who've been around since the late 70's are still playing. I saw The Adicts live just a few months ago, and Subhumans are playing a my local venue in March. Punk is still going strong, just because it isnt in the media doesnt mean it isnt still around. And I mean real punk, not these pop-rock bands claiming they're punk.

And what the hell does Kurt Cobain have to do with punk rock? He was an excellent artist, but he was grunge, not punk. He had no impact on the punk scene in the least.

[Death Penalty]

I asked my friend about that and I typed what he told me cus I dont listen to rock accept old school Jimmy.

green day sucks ass!!!

i'm not a punk so i don't listen to it

[TheAbominatrix]

Well your friend is wrong. Nirvana came after the heyday of punk, and they were grunge. Black Flag, while having a huge impact on punk, would not make or break the scene when there are so <i>so</i> many good bands out there, especially ones that still tour.

Oh, and Nirvana Fan, you may also wanna check out Cock Sparrer. God knows how I forgot to list them, they're one of my top three. They're of the more melodic punk variety.

Chemical Romance are classed as emotional rock(EMO)

and whoever said Punk got cancer when Black Flag finished and when Kurt Cobain died, well how come it's because Cobain died? he was a grunge singer, rite?

[Brian The Pink Shark]

Grunge is essentially a branch of punk

[nik0tine]

I love my punk rock about as much as I love my Bach, and man do I ever love my Bach.

Off the top of my head my list would be as follows: The Casualties, Anti-Flag, The Unseen, The Sex Pistols, The Conflict, Ramones, The Virus, Bad Religion, Dropkick Murphies, Misfits, and The Dead Kennedies.
