How could I forget the Dead Kennedies and NoMeansNo. They're the 2 bands that started it for me. California Uber Alles is still a Saturday night must listen for me.

Now, I pretty much just stick to either old school punk, or experimental stuff.
No disagreement on my part. I definitely left Bad Brains (already mentioned) and The Ramones off of my original list.

I'm much more partial to what could be called "happy punk". Not a huge fan of going to a show and having to fight for my life, or decide someone elses. Love the quote from one of the Queers lately, to paraphrase....

"Punk sucks nowadays. You've got this Irish-Dropkick BS where everyone just wants to go to a show and kick teeth in. No one can have a good time anymore"
