Best punk bands?

My favorites are The Clash, and Television. I don't know if Iggy pop and the stooges count as punk but if so then them as well.

of course iggy pop is punk

clash, sex pistols, mc5, the misfits.

The Stitches!

look look look, i KNOW THAT POP-PUNK IS CONSIDERED NOT REAL PUNK, but I choose early Green Daylonewolf604

I like their early albums like Dookie, I think they get a bit too much crap for their new stuff. The are not the worst band around and I can easily tolerate them.

The Clash, The Ramones, New York Dolls, Dead Kennedys.

i was into punk for awhile
thought i get into it more but never did
but i really love the sex pistols and ramones

The Clash, The Ramones, New York Dolls, Dead Kennedys.

The Dead Kennedys are more along the lines of speed metal. I think they are "speed punk"

Dead Kennedys is hardcore punk with an annoying vocalist. Not speed metal, not "speed punk" (or speed cabaret, for that matter, because I know what you're thinking).

Whatever they are, I think they're great and I like them :P

Black Flag, DRI, (early) Suicidal Tendencies, Hellkrusher, Misfits.

Black Flag

i like

f'd up, refused, gang of four, dead kennedys, a certain ratio and iggy and the stooges.

I like Rancid, NOFX, Vandals, Pennywise, and early Offspring. There are many, many others, but those are the ones I've listened to the most. Nerf Herder is good too (think the Buffy theme song) but they're not amazing or anything.

I saw someone above mention the New York Dolls. I've never heard any of their music but kudos. They did a lot for the punk "scene". Black Flag too.

Proper punk-wise I only listen to The Sex Pistols and Ramones but I also like pop-punk like NFG and Green Day.

Misfits, The exploited, GBH, The unseen (before Paul left the band), The Clash, Ramones, Varukers, One way system, Conflict, Abrasive wheels, Sex Pistols, Defiance, Pennywise, Doom, Nausea, Blitz, Dead Kennedys, Stiff Little fingers, are some good ones

I don't really like punk that much but I do enjoy the ridiculousness that is the Sex Pistols.

My favorites are The Clash, and Television. I don't know if Iggy pop and the stooges count as punk but if so then them as well.

The Clash and Green Day

Speaking of which, does anyone else find it kinda lame that Green Day literally model themselves off the Clash?
