Greatest punk band of all time???

What would you, the users of Gamespot, say is the greatest punk band of all time?

Anyone who knows me well will probably already know The Minutemen are the best, in my opinion, but there are still many good ones out there.

Feel free to post more than one.

Punk begins and ends with the Sex Pistols.Silent_Bob32

While I love the Sex Pistols, there a sooooo many other good punk bands.

I would have to go with the Sex Pistols as well. But I wouldn't say that punk ends with them.

Honorable mentions, New York Dolls and The Dead Kennedys

Patti Smith

I'm not a huge fan of punk but that's easy...

The Clash.

Blink 182

Good Charlotte

Avril Lavigne

:P

Just kidding! The clash. Romones.

Eh, The Clash is more pop-punk.

Oh and the Buzzcocks are a close second.

IMO:

1. Bad Religion, 2. Dead Kennedys, 3. Black Flag.

Although the Stooges are probably the most influential.

No The Clash is not pop punk.:|

LOL pop-punk

1 The Clash

2 The Misfits

3 Propagandhi

Ramones, The Stooges, Sex Pistols, The Clash.

Those are my favorite punk bands.

The clash, followed by the ramones.

Sex pistols aren't even worth a mention. To quote a music critic: Joe Strummer had more talent in his left buttcheek than sid vicious had in his entire body. Hell even if you are angry, making crap like "god save the queen and her fascist regime' with terrible guitar work, weak lyrics, and just general suckiness is no excuse,..

The Sex Pistols are the very definition of punk.

DaveyDeathblade

So the definition of punk according to you is a band that cant play their instruments well, has a crappy singer and spits on their fans?

Sex Pistols are important to the genre nonetheless....
