I think I should make the dsiclaimer right now. By Punk I mean GENUINE PUNK ROCK GROUPS OR ARTISTS. None of that sceney weenie emo bullcrap they play on fuse or MTV(even thoght MTV doesn't really seem to care about music anymore. Ironic isn't it? )

Anyway to kick things off I guess I'll start with mine. It's tough to say because frankly I have four main heroes within the genre: Darby Crash of The Germs, Sid Vicious of The Sex Pistols,Joey Ramone of The Ramones, and Justin Sane of Anti-Flag. To me those four artists are physical manifestations the true spirit of Punk. Justin Sane and Darby Crash represent the political and social voice that the genre has always considered to be of the utmost importance but at the same time Punk also came into existence asa backlash against the pompous bands of the time who took themselves way to seriously so bands like The Sex Pistols and The Ramones represent the idea of it being about the music first and foremost as well as the attitude behind it. They were blatant advertisements of the idea that you shouldn't have to be a virtuoso to go out and play rock n roll. Rock is meant to be a fun way of uniting those who feel like outcasts or misfits. Either way all four musicians made huge contributions to rock n roll at times where change was desperately needed. So let's hear it. Who do you consider to be the best and the brightest stars in Punk Rock history?

I love Greenday. My favorite song by them is St. Jimmy. They are pretty good and have always been to me. I really want the Greenday version of RockBand.

I think that Rocknrollzombie specified not any artists that have indulged into pop. I think that takes away Green Day. Where as they USED to be punk and hardcore and all that stuff, they aren't anymore.

I like The Casualties (get it?) and the Sex Pistols.

I like Ian MacKaye and his projects a lot so I'd have to say that Minor Threat is probably my favourite Punk band. I wouldn't really consider Fugazi punk, but if you do, then them. The Misfits I like as well (they actually formed just a few towns away from where I live).

I don't really know of any bands I would intentionally classify as punk, but if I had to choose from a few bands I know I'd say Aiden, Hawthorne Heights, and Senses Fail might fall under than category.

Replies have spread across the spectrum from people i now wish to have a beer with to people that make me wanna smash a beer bottle against my head XD. Aiden and Hawthorne Heights are not punk by any means and its KURT Cobain,not Kirk.It irritates me that Green Day is always the default because while I love them they've really evolved from a punk band to mr of an arena rock kinda thing which is awesome but not punk by any means. Whoever you guys are that said Ian Mackaye, The Casualties,Iggy Pop,Patti Smith,Refused and Screeching Weasel I f***ing love you all lol

Gotta start with the influences of punk, like Iggy and the Stooges, New York Dolls, Richard Hell, and good stuff like that...then you got the Sex Pistols, the Clash, The Dead Boys, the Germs, FEAR, The Damned, The Professionals (Steve and Pauls band after the Pistols) the Anti-Nowhere League...then you move onto anarcho bands like Flux of Pink Indians, Nausea, Charged GBH, The Varukers, Discharge, Conflict, Aus-Rotten and Dirt...then onto the hardcore...must say BLACK FLAG, the Descendents, Circle Jerks, Dead Kennedys, Agnostic Front, Murphys Law, Cro-Mags, Millions Of Dead Cops, POISON IDEA, Bad Brains, god there's so much more...then present day punk like the Casualties, the Krum Bums, the Unseen, Rancid, Lower Class Brats, and Blanks 77...real PUNK ROCK music!!!
