Who is the best punk rock band ever?!
Question: The Faction kicked ***
The Dead Kennedys kicked ***
Minor Threat rocked
The Descendents rock
The Misfits rock
The Sex Pistols are pretty good
The Clash is original.
The Ramones were pretty badass
(note the name trend)
As for best band? As in actually answering the question? =P
I'd go with DK.
But it all started with the clash, and the sex pistols and soon after the ramones an misfits.
-EDIT-
and the Pumpkins are... all over the place. But certainly not punk. They're most definitely 'Rock' and could probably fall under 'Grunge' or 'Metal' at certain points... but i think theyre best described either by name or simply 'Rock'.
-EDIT#2-
Like what you want, and think what ya want- but none of the punk bands around now are really "Punk". music like good charlotte, fall out boy, and avril lavigne is all pop-rock or (if you REALLY wanna push the name) pop-punk. but none of them are "Punk" and its almost an insult to the original dumbasses to say so. Listen to DK's "Pull My Strings" (great song btw).
its not about how you dress. not even REALLY about how you act. more about how you THINK.
seems like my whole generation missed that concept. >.<

sex pistols
Rancid
Sex Pistols.
Sex Pistol or the Ramones
Ouch hummmm The pixies
U.S.A. / The Ramones
U.K. / The Sex Pistols
The Clash, Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, Echo and the Bunnymen, A Flock of Seagulls, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, X, Blondie, The Slits, Patti Smith, Nirvana, Hole, L7, etc.
I've always been suspicious of claims that the Smashing Pumpkins were punk/grunge. Their early records sounded like folk, blues, psychedelic rock, art-rock, metal and pop mixed together. Nothing like grunge, new wave or punk, not that I do not respect their talents but it wasn't punk. Talking Heads and Television had a few good singles but watching the lead singer of the Heads in video drives me nuts.
Duran Duran and Depeche Mode started off as new wave bands. I do not discriminate.
oh my god.
i can't . . . i won't choose!!!
but a couple are leftover crack and the misfits, DUH,and the dead kennedys.
and minor threat.
OH, I CAN'T PICK JUST ONE
Bad Religion.
The Clash
The Misfits.

Cotterall: A Flock of Seagulls, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, Nirvana, etc...are not punk.
and to gpibama: the Ramones were around and playing shows, in England no less, before the Pistols. ;)
