Black Flag's anthem for me was My War, I think its sums up thier career neatly.

While not my favorite, my vote goes to Blitzkrieg Bop. Even non-punk fans know it, and who doesn't like yelling "Hey Ho Let's Go!" at the top of their lungs?

I actually agree with this, I love the intro.

Alternative Ulster is a great song, brilliant into too. Great to shout along to.

From that list it's gotta be Blitzkrieg Bop. It's the only punk song that people who aren't fans of the genre can sing along to.

Although not my favorite (I voted for Blank Generation) Blitzkrieg Bop would probably qualify as the most anthemic.

Everyone can chant... hey ho! let's go!

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

Hey - ho! Let's go!

edit :

And I agree that New Rose by The Damned is good. I still would've gone with bop, though ..
