    Sex Pistols.

    My sister is really into punk. I'll go ask her later, haha.

    For now I can tell you these ones: Antiflag, Circle Jerks, Toy Dolls, Replacements, Sham 69, Generation X, Dead Boys, Stiff Little Fingers.

    I know there are others but I don't remember the names. I'll find out.

    Yeah, so I asked my punky sister and this is what she had to say:

    Sorry if some bands were already mentioned...

    Operation Ivy (you can actually download a lot of their music at their site.)
    The Dead Milkmen
    T.S.O.L.
    The Adicts
    Against All Authority

    Street Dogs
    Toy Dolls
    Crass
    The Distillers
    The Germs
    Angelic Upstarts

    Black Flag
    Anti-Nowhere League
    Anti-Flag
    The Business
    Peter and The Test Tube Babies

    X

    Subhumans
    Throw Rag
    Husker Du
    The Vandals
    The Vibrators

    Those are all I could think of,
    but there are TONS more out there.
    Even if you don't like myspace,
    sometimes it's a good place to find music!
    Don't do a music search though, that got me nowhere.
    Just click people with mohawks and blue hair,
    and you might just find yourself knowing a new punk band from their page xD
    AND: http://www.punk77.co.uk/linkpage/punkbands.htm

    Husker Du - Zen Arcade. It is a semi-concept album about youthful rites of passage. It rules. It will keep you busy for a little while.
    One of the greatest albums of all time. I LOVE the piano interludes in the latter half.

    social distortion, dropkick murphys, flogging molly, the misfits.

    Personally I think anti-flag sucks. My buddy took me to a show once and like someone else posted it was half music, half him preaching about how much bush sucks.

    A few mentions for Throw Rag. I gotta admit I had never heard of them before, but saw them open up for the Pogues about 2 weeks ago in Anaheim. They put on a very good show, impressed by them.

    And speaking of the Pogues, if you mention the Dropkick Murphys or any type of Irish punk, it goes back to the Pogues/Shane Macgowan.

    And to follow up the Dead Kennedys mention, check out Jello Biafra & The Melvins. Even heavier music than the DK's, with Jello's usual straight on take on current events.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    stay away from the Sex Pistols. They were the Backstreet Boys for 70's punk. Bunch of fucking losers

    you're an idiot. They did it better than almost any major punk band in history. Just because they aren't sloppy and shit musicians all around doesn't mean they aren't punk.

    christ what a dumb thing to say.

    you beat me to it.


    The Sex Pistols were SHITE! They were terrible musicians and wrote the single most overrated punk album ever. Quite the career.
    Hello, I love you. Won't you tell me your name?
