Aug 17, 2021 · The 30 Best Punk Bands of All Time. Punk has continued to evolve over the past few decades (we also avoided pop-punk, for the most part, for this particular list), but the essence of a great punk song remains intact: fast-paced music, lyrics rooted in anti-establishment, and a welcome sense of danger.

Watching home videos can be a good way to look back on fond memories and feel a sense of nostalgia. It can also be a way to chart the development of yourself and your family. You can see how much your children have grown and bemoan the fact you have more wrinkles and less hair. Right now, we are going to be doing something similar by considering 12...
The Damned has the distinction of being the first U.K. punk band to release a single ("New Rose") and an album (Damned Damned Damned). They also recorded a promo video for their 1976 single, "New Rose". The video does a nice job of capturing the essence and energy of The Damned. It also displays the gothic aspects of the band, which ended up being ...
"God Save the Queen," off the album Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols,truly helped define punk rock. The song definitely has a strong anti-establishment tone, which was a prominent feature of many punk bands to follow. In that sense, The Sex Pistols helped establish punk as a form of protest music. The video for the 1977 single highli...
When compared to their U.K. punk counterparts like the Sex Pistols and Clash, Sham 69 was somewhat overlooked. That being said, they are considered to be highly influential within the Oi and street punk movements. Their 1978 single, "If the Kids Are United," was the band's biggest hit (#9 on the U.K. chart) and it prominently featured the football/...
"I Wanna Be Sedated" was from The Ramones' fourth album, Road to Ruin (1978). The song became one of their trademarks and highlights what's so infectious and endearing about the band. The Ramones helped write the blueprint for punk rock, with many following in their footsteps. The video was filmed in 1988 to help promote their essential greatest hi...
"London Calling" is the title track from The Clash's third studio record, a sprawling, ambitious, two-record set that showed that the band was growing musically. An indictment of a number of social ills plaguing late '70s Britain, "London Calling" was one of the songs that established Joe Strummer as the Bob Dylan of punk rock. (Fittingly, Bob Dyla...
"Holiday in Cambodia" was actually released as a single in May 1980 and then re-recorded for the Dead Kennedys' debut album, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables, which came out later that year. Both the song and album firmly established the band as founding fathers of hardcore punk, especially in the Bay Area (they were from San Francisco). The live...
"TV Party" originally appeared on Black Flag's landmark debut album, Damaged(1981). The song was goofier and catchier than most of the band's material, which made it easy to overlook that the lyrics satirized TV's dumbing down effect on society. The video certainly add to that message. Just like with the Dead Kennedys and Alternative Tentacles, Gre...
"Banned in D.C." is from Bad Brains' self-titled 1982 debut album. It was originally only released on cassette, but was subsequently released on CD, vinyl, and digitally. Bad Brainsis very important in the development of hardcore. Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys was even quoted as saying that it's "the best punk/hardcore album of all time." The "Ban...
"Institutionalized" was from Suicidal Tendencies' self-titled 1983 debut. It is considered to be the first hardcore punk video to receive significant airplay on MTV. The band has also proven to be influential within the skate punk scene and in the formation of the crossover thrash genre (also referred to as punk metal). Like the lyrics, the video i...
