My mate's brother plays in UK Punx and my wife's cousin plays in Oi Polloi neither are to my taste, but you may appreciate them. ____________________ My claim to fame: Austin Vince nicked my pen... |

The original and best Punk Band(s)... The Ramones, Sham 69, Sex Pistols, and The Clash.
No one really comes close to The Clash!!

Yeah, I mean... having an opinion different from yours is soooo gaaaay, amirite? I guess some of us just aren't alternative enough
Dischord: If you like the bands you listed, pogo along on to Fat Wreck Chords, run by Fat Mike of NOFX. Pretty much any of the bands on that label will do stuff you like, judging by the few bands you listed above.
Also, try Alkaline Trio, early Brand New (the later stuff is better, but the early stuff is more the right genre), and Goldfinger, maybe try New Found Glory, Valencia, SR-71, Houston Calls, Less Than Jake and Jimmy Eat World... basically there are dozens that all offer that kind of sound. EDIT: Try Yellowcard too, they've just come on my itunes and I think they're awesome.
And don't forget The Offspring, if you haven't listened to them already. ____________________ TARMAC - Automotive blog *UPDATED 26/3/09 - Abandoned fuel stations to go electric? ~ Buy my eBay stuff!

Many of the bands mentioned previously are more 'New Wave' than 'Punk' - whatever those labels mean.
Whoever mentioned the Clash must surely have been having a laugh - they are about as far removed from punk as can be. The phrase 'sell-out' springs to mind. The only decent thing they did was grasp the coat-tails of roots, especially the DJ style (Mikey Dread for example)
Really, you only need 2 groups, from the USA it has to be the Dead Kennedys, from the UK it just has to be Crass. Of the 2, Crass are without doubt the finer.
Anything else is just a pale imitation. ____________________ Space Monkey #7

Thanks for the suggestions so far, gonna check out these bands! I've been into Punk music for years, have delved into all the sub genres and the only reason I requested pop punk is because it's really uplifting!
If any of you have soulseek let me know your username and I'll check out what you've got!  ____________________ 2012 KTM EXC 250

Clash.
RAR. Sell-outs. Fakes.
From 'White Punks on Hope':
They said that we were trash,
Well the name is Crass, not Clash.
They can stuff their punk credentials
Cause it's them that take the cash.
They won't change nothing with their fashionable talk,
All their RAR badges and their protest walk,
Thousands of white men standing in a park,
Objecting to racism's like a candle in the dark.
Black man's got his problems and his way to deal with it,
So don't fool yourself you're helping with your white liberal shit.
If you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand,
You'd see we're all just niggers to the rulers of this land.
Punk was once an answer to years of crap,
A way of saying no where we'd always said yep.
But the moment we saw a way to be free,
They invented a dividing line, street credibility.
The qualifying factors are politics and class,
Left wing macho street fighters willing to kick arse.
They said because of racism they'd come out on the street.
It was just a form of fascism for the socialist elite.
Bigotry and blindness, a marxist con,
Another clever trick to keep us all in line.
Neat little labels to keep us all apart,
To keep us all divided when the troubles start. ____________________ Space Monkey #7

You can help selling out. If you sell loads of records, that's not selling out. If you change your principles in order to do so, that is.
AJI, I was taking the piss out of people who say things like pop-punk is gay. Music is music and you like what you like. It's hard to get that across on t'interweb though. ____________________ Don't practice it until you get it right, practice it until you don't get it wrong.
