I love The Ramones, but I couldn't put them on my list because somehow their music made into every television commercial under the sun,(you can probably hear their music in a Raisin Bran commercial) and that is so un-punk I could just puke. All those yuppie stiffs deciding to putThe Ramones in their commercial campaign to sell Bed sheets from JC Penny. ACK!!@
Most of them are gone now, but whichever existing Ramones member selling the music should be very ashamed.

1) Operation Ivy
2) Minor Threat
3) The Minutemen (Double Nickles on the Dime)
4) The Clash (London Calling)
5) Reagan Youth (A collection of Pop Classics)

Also, I love Irish Punk so I've gotta mention The Pogues and Flogging Molly.

Whats the best deadmilk men album? I've been meaning to pick one up but I've been waiting for a recomendation. Surprised no one said Husker Du or the Stooges.

All right, other browncoat punk fans!

1)Rancid
2)Tiger Army
3)Dropkick Murphys
4)AFI (Pre-Sing the Sorrow)
5)Flogging Molly


Best band live: Dropkick Murphys. They put more heart and energy into their shows than any other band I've seen.

Now, I know I'm supposed to name old bands like Op Ivy, the Clash and the Misfits, but while I like them, i just don't think they're that great.

Well everyone's entitled to their own opinion I suppose, I'm not a huge fan of AFI, dropkick murphys, tiger army or most new punk bands but here is what I've gotta ask you...What Rancid albums do you like? They'res a huge schism in their material and though I aboslutely love Rancid and Rancid[2000] I can not stand Out come the wolves or whatever the hell that new bullshit is. So what is it man?
