alright,welcome to my punk thread.first of all,people need to make more punk threads.

anyway,i need to know your favourite punk bands and why.And i dont want to hear stories of the lame AFI kids or the fall out boy kids.

My favourite band is tough,but right now it has to be bad religion.They've been a band for around 25 years,and still writing rad music.I love their music,and especially their deep lyrics,which are associated with social issues,religion,and politics.they seemed to get better when they reunited in 2002 to make "the process of beleif".And their new album is very good as well.Well punkers,now its your turn.

The Ramones all the way! Great band, too tough to die.

The Black Halos for me. (and no they didnt take there name from the Kamelot album, they were around before it). Id been listening to them since I was 11 or 12 (back when I was really into punk.
There from Canada and almost have a glam rock sound to them (very vague but its there). They had a hit a few years ago called 'Some Things Never Fall'. I dont know what else to say about them, there great.
Songs to check out:
Three Sheets To The WInd
Some Things Never Fall
Bombs Not Food

hmmm this was hard for me. If we're talking about pure punk, I'd go with old (late 70's/early 80's) The Misfits or maybe older Pennywise, just because they were one of the first punk bands I heard. If hardcore counts, then Minor Threat might be my favorite. I like their aggression and respect their themes. But then again, Bad Brains keeps on reinventing themselves while still putting up good material, and Agnostic Front is fierce, so it's hard to me to decide. In the end though, I got to go with Minor Threat.

Realy hard to tell because IOm noty into punk but I enjouy more 70ties punk like Sex Pistols, Undertones, New York Dolls, The Damned, The Clash, Buzzcocks and Exploidet
But moustly I like Sex Pisstols and band who sing a song about new Rose GnR make a cover

if someone then The Offspring...i really loved them before i started with metal

and other quite good bands i know are Blink182 (and similar - e.g. Anonymous from this year Eurovision), slovakian Horký?e Slí?e and czech E!E

I agree but only early albums, thay was/are great but i prefere more 70ties punk,

i mean especially Americana, this is their album i loved the best

Swedish Ebba Grön for me. I've always liked Joakim Thåström's voice and they have a lot of catchy songs.

Old Misfits
I'll be seeing them in concert in Toronto on the 25'th. Can't wait<3

@Chris Amber
Yeah I love The Offspring too, I think if I just discovered them now I wouldnt like them, but everytime I listen to them I get a huge flood of childhood memories that almost make me wanna cry. (as unmetal and cheesey as that sounds), especially 'The Kids Arent Alright', that song almost describes the street I grew up on as a kid perfectly.

Misfits
+Michael Graves
-Glenn Danzig
Shit

honestly, i'm not sure. growing up in the 80's, the Dead Kennedys had the biggest impact on me, but over the last 10 years my favorite punk band would have to be The Vandals. They aren't as hard or edgy as they used to be - but I've always loved their sense of humor, the fact they put out albums frequently and tour even more frequently.

From older punk, I also really like FEAR, Circle Jerks, Bad Religion, Black Flag, GBH, The Exploited, The Misfits, and Minor Threat. Suicidal Tendencies comes to mind as well, but they had only the original album that both qualifies as punk and as one I really like. I like a couple of their late 80's releases, but they were mostly thrash metal by that time.

From the newer stuff, Dropkick Murphys, NOFX... then again even these bands are old now.

I absolutely love Angel City Outcasts, but really, they're hardly punk. It's more like upbeat riff-heavy rock with a southern tinge and a punk attitude.

For more "real" punk, I guess, I really like the crust band World Burns to Death. I saw Fenriz from Darkthrone recommend them in an interview, so I checked them out. Very aggressive, but in my opinion they manage to be kind of catchy in a nasty crusty sort of way.

I like greek punk band but dunno name
Here its song sorry for video, its salf maded

Circle Jerks for me. I like them because they were one of the first punk bands I ever got into when I was like 10 years old..so they have been with me for a while! Hmm I dono what else..I think most punk is pretty similar to each other but CJ stand out a bit more to me.

The Offspring, maybe some Green Day and Blink 182, Sex Pistols, The Exploited and some other stuff. Band Ritam Nereda from Serbia is Oi!, I don't know whether it could be classified unther this thread.

Ok, I'll take a look... Someday... Not much time these days.

The Misfits. I prefer the Danzig years, but I'll listen to any Misfits song.

I'm a big fan of the founding fathers of punk: The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, The New York Dolls...but then I'm also a fan of the punk revival scene...bands like Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, The Offspring (older)...there are a lot of post-punk and punk revival bands that I like but just can't remember their names...

Totally untrue...through the punk movement of the early 70s, punk bands and managers were constantly going back and forth from Europe to America and were constantly making deals...the last thought I didn't understand...

I dont' know much about punk, but I would say Bad Religion and The Offspring are my favs... Bad religion being a traditional band, as far as I know, and The Offspring is kinda funny and uplifting...

True about The Offspring, like "Shiny happy people", always getting your mood up

I love Punk music, not as much as I love Metal but still, I listen to a lot of Punk sometimes. Depends on the mood I'm on.

My favorite bands: Misfits, Horror Story, Nekromantix, Bad Religion, Mad Caddies, Ramones, Donots, Offspring, Green Day, NOFX, Lagwagon, Millencolin, Gogol Bordello, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Michale Graves, Lunachicks, Pennywise, etc.

Anybody knows Lars Fredriksen and The Bastards?
