The Clash or London Calling is the best punk record.
or:
The Ramones(pop-punk-esque)
Desendents
Lifetime
Kinda:
Green Day(pop-punk)
Nirvana(punk-esque until they had lots of fame)
Goldfinger(under-rated)

there are two acceptable answers to this question.
either the clash or the ramones.
and for the record, nirvana had very much a punk influence (pat smear was in the fuckin germs for god sakes) but by no means would i ever refer to them as a punk band.

06/02/06, 10:22 PM
The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Skumbagz, The Remnants, Zeke, NOFX, Rancid, Against me(well, thats folk punk), and way more :D:D:D
Besides the Clash, Sex Pistols and ramones, which is ur typical top 3.
MC5, i cant believe they've been mentioned only once. and Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Fugazi, Misfits, Bad Brains, minor threat, Husker Du, Minutemen, nation of ulysess. Newer bands would be at the drive-in, nofx, refused, old AFI, ect.
And the best punk album to me is Kick Out the Jams

I honestly don't get how the Ramones get so much praise. I think they did a lot back when punk was still a fairly new thing but for the most part all their songs are way too similar.
I'd say Bad Religion, even though they put out a string of not so hot albums for awhile and I lost interest in them. Process of Belief got me caring again, but then the album after (forget the name) I wasn't too big on.
So LATELY Strung Out is the only punk band that consistantly appeals to me.
The answer would be Minor Threat.

Personally I think you can't really rate the best punk band ever , because you first have to argue what punk is because the lines have become so blured and there is so many branches off the original sound.
If we are talking about the best band to follow the origianl punk sound then my vote is The Clash , but as we get into the other branches of punk it is alot harder to decide cause there is Hardcore the best hardcore band is The Dead Kennedys .
Then there is Post-Punk bands , my vote for that catagory is Joy Divison . Then there is OI punk for that I would have to say The Dropkick Murphys , then there is Pop-Punk ..the winner for that group is Blink- 182 . There is also the genre of Skate Punk , the best skate punk band is Rancid . And then there is Ska-Core the best Ska-Core band is The Mighty Mighty Bosstones .
So there is really no best punk band ever , the question should be what are the best bands from the different types of punk music.

Personally I think you can't really rate the best punk band ever , because you first have to argue what punk is because the lines have become so blured and there is so many branches off the original sound.
If we are talking about the best band to follow the origianl punk sound then my vote is The Clash , but as we get into the other branches of punk it is alot harder to decide cause there is Hardcore the best hardcore band is The Dead Kennedys .

you had some good thoughts here, until you said the best pop-punk band was Blink-182,
once again i have got to say to some one, Blink was not punk, they were Super pop, power pop, whatever you want to call it
someone tried to explain to me that the genre pop-punk was just a bunch of bands most people think are punk but are not, trying to justify that blink was pop-punk, but i didnt buy it.
pop punk is punk with a "poppy" sound to it, which is not Blink 182, They do not deserve the "best pop punk" title
and you may say they are punk, and you may not, but the majority of people i know who actually give a shit about music will agree with me, then you have the people who dont care and are fans of blink, and they think what they want
and i believe you can compare any genre of punk, the only time i think you cant cross compare is when its the base genre, such as Funk, punk, alternative, elecronica, etc.....
bet you even have bands that cross the base genre
creating stuff like
electro punk,
and i think if you had to put a top band in this sub genre it would either be
Atom & his Package
or

That doesn't make sense. Pop = popular. That's it. They weren't some gamour band or anything. the fact that they became a pop band simply meant that they became popular. They were pop punk. Popular punk.

ok, first of all pop does not equal popular, it equals pop, a GENRE of music
now, my step brother is the only other person who has said to me what you just said,
everyone else agrees with me that pop is a GENRE, so pop punk is punk with a "poppy" sound
but even according to your logic, how are they pop punk, if they were popular, shouldnt they just be pop,
now, my step bro said to me, that pop punk was just a bunch of bands that everyone THINKS are punk, but ARENT, so even he admitted that they really arent punk
its just that people misunderstand pop punk,
so if they arent punk, they dont deserve the punk name, so they are Super pop, or Power Pop,
Pop = Pop , not popular
jeez your an idiot
and attention to all you who are going to fight against me,
you will not sway me, because this is a forum, and all i need is the reasurance that most of the punk population agrees with ME, and most of the NON PUNK population agrees with ME.
I dont care what the Blink fans think, especially the ones who listen to emo and hardcore, and say that they like a few punk bands and name Blink as their favorite punk band. In fact the a lot of the blink fans agree with ME that they arent punk,
so please SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
besides compared to most punk bands, in my opinion, blink is not on the top best list,
yes they may have a talented drummer, but put with the rest of the band they sound bad
This thread annoys me, I hope it hurry up and dies or gets locked.
it annoys me too, if you cant tell, its completely gotten off track,
i am sick of declairing blink not punk, and putting up with Panic fans

Some of the bands u guys listed , haha, the word pop and the word punk should not even go together!There are a few in my book, The Clash, Ramones, Black Flag(before Rollins), The Damned, and Crass(sucked at playin there instruments) but they got their message across!!
the damned are fucking brilliant. machine gun etiquette is a (near) perfect album.
