its not like they ripped of their sound entirely, they just borrowed alot of influence. They took what the clash did and made it faster, more aggresive and in some cases more ska.

man paint steve green it the crazzist punk ska band out there i cant begin to believe no one has said them :)

did the clash acctually play any ska? Didn't they only do reggae?

[QUOTE=KNuPRoCKeR]Hey Punkerz .. Getting straight to the point.. I play Punk stuff, from general to every subculture... any instrument.. got my own studio.. but I need some knowledge from you guys..

The thing is.. I love punk. the lifestyle.. the music.. but lately its been so monotonous.. saaame shiiiiiiit... all these bands... and I realised that in rock.. ppl just seem to notice metalheads as the best musicians technically.. as in speed and skill in playing instruments..

But Im sure there has to be at least one GREAT punk band out there.. one that'll just thrash all when it comes to musical [I][B]ingenuality[/B][/I]... one where every toher band seems to have failed in cloning or copying coz theyr juz so **** good...underground or popular.. THE BEST.. musically.. if not technically (eg. fast playing, leads, crazy bass drives, hectic drumming).. some depth in their songwriting..

I'm just looking for the different now.. I want to hear the punk equivalent to the best musicians of every genre. I know some of u guys are pretty cold and will just tell me to F*** OFF.. but I just need this one help from you guys.. and it's much appreciated.. thanks[/QUOTE]

i had no idea this was a word

*searches high and low for dictionary*

Ingenuity, he meant.

give or take 3-4 letters

Well he either meant ingenuousness or ingenuity. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and asumed ingenuity.

..ohh yeah.. typing fast... i teached myselp how to spoke english..

.those are really alotta help guyz... but i juz wanna know.. i seem to notice DK's popped up alot.. what do u guys think they have that no one else duz? what can they do that no one else does? and yet.. they never surfaced fully mainstream... obviously coz theyr punk..

Dead Kennedys
Minutemen

Go with those two, probably the most 2 original bands in punk. While the ban is not being in the mainstreem.ds have gotten more popular over time they never got big because it's part of being "punk"

The Dam ned. All one word...

Senses fail

^Do not listen to this person^

[QUOTE=Sk8SkaNJ]^Do not listen to this person^[/QUOTE]
onetwothree

definitely leftover crack/choking victim, morning glory and indk

Angel City Outcasts are pretty ****in awesome instrumentalists

The misfits! there the only punk band i like...being a 'metalhead' and all. and I also so if your going to listen to misfits get some micheal graves misfits, danzig is pretty good but micheal is just better

[QUOTE=whats her face]I think the Misfits are over rated, people in my town all claim to love them, but no one here listens to thier music, its like my freinds little sister and Bad Religion, she has a bunch of merch (that daddy bought her) but Ive never heard her play BR. ****ing wanna-be's[/QUOTE]
Holy Sh'it. We must have the same fuc'king sister.

[QUOTE=Bullet In_The Head]Holy Sh'it. We must have the same fuc'king sister.[/QUOTE]So does that make you guys like inbred?

The Toy Dolls Are So Good It Will Blow Your Mind

way to type in all caps, tardos.

fugazi

The Ramones (not technicall with flashy drum solos or any of that stuff but thats what makes them great)
Clash
Dead Kennedys
Sex Pistols

husker du
black flag
urban waste
mission of burma

Here have a band:
*Gives Band*

**** sparrer!

Technichally Bigwig and Strung Out kick everyone's asses. Lagwagon are very good also but not that much

Social Distortion
Fugazi
The Clash

[QUOTE=TheNowhereman42]did the clash acctually play any ska? Didn't they only do reggae?[/QUOTE]

See (listen to) Wrong 'Em Boyo.

Also gotta go with BR on this (only counting bands still around. But that doesn't really make any difference anyway). Best vocalist in punk. Best songwriters in punk. Best backing vocals in punk (at least on albums anyway). Best lyricists in punk. Some excellent lead guitar from Brian Baker and the tightest rhythm section in punk (If you see 'em live you'll know what I mean). Also with Brooks Wackerman on drums they now have arguably the best drummer in punk, and the drummer with the best surname in punk. And they've done it consistently for ages. If you disagree with this, you are wrong!

I'm sorta getting where Bad Religion and Dead Kennedys are comin' from..

Yeah, I agree

BAD BRAINS!!! dead kennedys , the ****ed, the buzzcocks

why is the d'amned censored?

[QUOTE=germocide777]why is the d'amned censored?[/QUOTE]
Because it's a naughty word!

in my opinion, these bands are great for instrumentals:

DOA
Dead Kennedys
Flogging Molly
Propaghandi
Anti-Flag


and NOFX, even though i like them, are horrable at thier instruments.
