Very punk of you
Punk. Thanks.

Thank you. I'm in a very anti-fascist mood and this is what I need.
Might I introduce you to The Muslims - Fuck These Fuckin Fascists
The inclusion of Chumbawumba is scrambling my brain. Explain please.
Most people only know them from that one single that got popular back in the day. They've never been a pop band though. They're actually an anarchist art collective that's been around since the early '80s. The podcast Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff did two episodes on them. It's worth a listen. They're much cooler than you think they are.
No pat, wingnut dishwashers, or johnny hobo. Turn in your crustpants!
/s - obviously :)
love Defiance, Ohio

Sleater Kinney
Fugazi
Jawbreaker
Rainer Maria
The Thermals
Honourable mentions: Bad Religion and The Clash
REFUSED!!!! I discovered them way too late. They were a band ahead of their time!
I actually don't like the '90s stuff they made. Their album War Music in 2019 and the 2020 Malignant Fire single songs are amazing though, and I love Useless Europeans from the Freedom album as well.
If anyone else here ever tried Refused but didn't get it, try their modern stuff, it's way different, lyrics hit harder and the production sounds more similar to that loud Samurai feel in CP2077.
I was thinking of posting all NoFx and here it is already
Minor Threat
Buzzcocks
Circle Jerks
Misfits
Sex Pistols

Bad Brains are SO GOOD
(Dishonorable mention to Justin Sane. Anti-Flag was a huge part of me developing my sense of ethics and social justice. Sad about what a dick he turned out to be.)
Rancid, Face to face, Nofx, Alkaline trio, Pennywise
I used to like anti flag, but fuck Justin sane, the rest of the band are fine but can't listen to his voice anymore. Fucking pedo.

I can't believe that I scrolled the whole thread and didn't find Operation Ivy.
Well, they had one albums worth of songs then one member quit. Then other members just added Lars Fredrickson and became Rancid. Like, I love op-iv but rancid scratches that itch and people prob want some more diversity in their list.
Aren't they ska?
Ska punk is splitting hairs for sure. Legit saw someone with the specials on their list lol
In no particular order but still in my top 5:
Anti-Flag (RIP)
Billy Talent
Sum 41
NOFX
AFI's earlier stuff was my jam.
Anti-Flag (RIP)
Except for Justin Sane, he can rot in hell
ITT: A whole hell of a lot of people not knowing what punk is.
If it fits a strict definition, is it really punk at all?
Preach
I was like this. It is the worst thing about the music scenes. I try not to be like this anymore.
Yeah, everyone knows that Bad Religion is a prog rock band
I don't see your top 5
