Getting into punk music

[Necky379]

Murder City Devils:







Blood for Blood:





Accustomed to Nothing:



Diesel Boy:





The Distillers:





Officer Down:



All my other recommendations have already been covered I think, NoFx, Guttermouth, The Misfits etc. If you like pop punk The Wonder Years have some great tunes.

I used to know a lot more but I haven't listened to much punk in a couple years. Death Metal will always be my #1.

I like crossover punk myself:

 

[Ill-Gotten James]

Oh wow now this is my type of thread. Punk Rock is what got me into playing guitar in the first place.

One of the more recent punk bands that sparked my interest and by recent I mean in the 2000's. Tiger Army



Turbonegro is another great band. There older albums that is.





The Business is another great early punk band.



And of course while I am not a huge fan of the music I cannot forget about GG Allin.


The Swinging Utters and the ode to being young, trying to find yourself.


And last but not least D'Generation.

 

[DANiMALxMD]

Propagandhi

This. Especially if you want good guitar work for a punk band.

Many great bands have been mentioned already. Imho The Misfits, Black Flag, Bad Brains and The Ramones are as essential as it can only get.

I'll add some (not essential, but stuff I like):
