I found this web page is very interesting! the ranking is very random and it does include a lot classic punk bands! Worth to take a look! But bear in the mind that this list is based on personal opinion so no need to get mad at it!!!

It is a good starter for newbies (including me) who are desperately searching for any punk band to start with. It does include a short BIO for each punk band and when you click on the icon it shows the album.


This is a list of the top 100 punk bands ever voted by the users of the punk forum on musicianforums.com


I think we should generate a list of the top xxx punk bands too! that will be cool!!

I will add a few more bands that I think should be on the top list too (personal) :

The Offspring (few songs)
Dead Boys
X-Ray Spex
The Stranglers

and......

how about you fix that link before you repost this same comment a 3rd time.

Sorry, i think i fixed it now!!

hmmm sonic youth, the velvet underground, suicidal tendencies in the top 50 of your top punk bands ever....

yet, nothing by all, or the descendents, or my personal favourite - nomeansno.

not to say that the VU or SY weren't influential but i don't think many people would call either group 'punk'. and if you're going to have suicidal tendencies as a list of the top punk bands ever you might as well include fishbone, the red hot chili peppers, and mr. bungle too.

well, like I said this list is very random and there are a lot of personal bias.

I don't think the list is very accurate. As sos814 said, the list seems really random.

eh ...?

Is Sonic Youth now considered Punk ...???

fak !, i know i've been off the scene for a while ... but when did that happen ?????

You could be amazed with what people call punk these days...

There's a lot of good titles in there, but they're all jumbled up and out of order!!

Then what is your personal ranked top 10 punk bands ever?
