100 greatest punk bands list
www.digitaldreamdoor.com/pages/best_punk.html
what do you think about this list? what bands would you switch around to make it accurate in your opinion? |
^ this list sucks. they put crass at 75 and the cramps at 77. that's bullsh*t. they put goldfinger and reel big fish before these guys. and they put green day ahead of social d, bad religion, op ivy, rancid, nofx, descendents, etc. some of these groups arent even punk (rbf, goldfinger, at the drive in, blondie, butthole surfers, much more)..gbh is at the bottom of the list- def dont agree with that.
|
yeah i think it pretty much sucks too.
the clash was #1 which i have to disagree with because I think they suck. GBH should've been higher up. A lot of bands should've been higher up. And like Oi said some of them weren't even punk. |
where the hell was dri? and what the hell tsol #1 p.s. afi licks uninut. http://www.freewebs.com/waynegrow/
|
Screeching Weasals at 92? WTF! This list is obviously biased. I agree with most of the top 10 though. Switch Sex Pistols and MC5
|
lol ew.
|
rites of spring is 79?
and green day is 22? worst ever |
Typical emo kid
|
this list does suck is my point. a local radio station has this thing on fridays at noon called anarchy lunch and they know nothing about punk. they do play black flag, circle jerks, a global threat, and a few other good bands. but they play ska with it like sublime and less than jake crap. they ask for people to give them good songs cuz they no nothing and its sad. i found this site at their site. i'm suprised gbh was at the bottom
|
more like panicrcy lunch if they call that punk
|
That list eats ars Three Slice Toaster isn't even on it key rise t.
*/ |
This list sucks anyone that thinks Greenday is better than :Crass,Adolescents,Fear,Wire,X-raySpecs,The Germs,The Descendants AND WERE The **** ARE THE SLITS (also dropkick murphys don't deserve to be anywhere near any top 100 lists) is very stupid.
|
D.O.A. should've been higher, closer to Bad Brains, Minor Threat and Black Flag.
It looks more like that list was made rather hastily and the creators just started throwing out names of better bands towards the end and didn't feel like changing the order on the list. |
What a load of whinging bores you are. You sum up the worst aspects of music fanatics.

Blondie was playing what was essentially punk before 99% of the bands on that list. |
Honestly, Rancid shouldn't have been on that list period. They are terrible
|
Does anybody know of any radio stations that actually do music any form of justice at all?

I think it's a decent list, I don't agree with all of it, but trust me, Rob is a smart guy when it comes to punk, he's no idiot. If you're gonna take this list seriously and I don't know why you should, just sign up for the forum and give your opinions, just as long as you don't come off as a ranting fanboy, he can be reasoned with, he updates the list a lot I'm sure. |
lol @ there being 100 'great' punk bands. You know you are scraping the bottom of the barrel when you resort to including Millencolin. God this is awful, I'll need to put my hand in a blender to start feeling things again. Apparently Bad Religion are greater than Crass... *slaphead* I bet this was a public vote wasn't it? Only people could be this thick
|
You've got to be kidding!! The Clash?? Number1! I don't think so. The Stooges should be there instead. I was actually surprised to see that they made it to #5. That entire list pissed me off.
|
Not a public vote, but a collaboration between posters and mods. Chemical Ali (rob, the editor), Dipsoid, Dreww and some others, I give my two cents every now and then, but because I'm not a real punk person no one ever listens to me. :(
I do agree that Bad Religion above Crass is lame. And if you guys think this list is so bad, why not make your own? I think when it comes to rock subgenres its probably more logical to do a top 50 instead of a top 100. I surely don't think there exists 100 good punk bands let alone 100 great ones. Quote:
If we're talking personal opinion then also no, cuz The Stooges are mediocre and The Clash are awesome. |

nofx above big black?
surely this is PREFERENCE, not GREATEST, then? there's some surprising inclusions on the list too... Heroin? I mean I like them, but... i'm not really criticizing it, as it's quite a cool list. i'd be interested in seeing the criteria behind voting, but quite frankly can't be bothered cuz lists suck anyway. |
It's NOT a preference list, and no it's not perfect, but no list can be perfect in everyones eyes.
|
Yeah, no list can be perfect, but what respectable human being thinks NOFX or Green Day are greater (in any way) than Big Black?

I have no idea who those are, and I have no desire to find out. =D
|
Putting The Explioted & Anti-Nowhere league as 45 & 46 in a list of greatest punk bands is a bit like putting Spinal Tap & Tenacious D at 45 & 46 of a greatest rock bands of all time list.
|
Green Day Is Above CRASS! and they Call it "Anarchy Lunch"?!?
|
The Unseen. Hahahaha!
|
Where the **** is blink-182????
|
The Clash, The Descendents, Social D, BLACK FLAG!, Nofx, Rancid, Bad Religion, Screeching Weasel, Blink 182, Operation Ivy, The Queers, 311. Some of my top greatest punk bands
|
Green Day is above the Adicts...
WTF? |

Ow...seeing Crass ranked right after Green Day kills me.

I agree with the top 10, but the Jam is way too low. Top 15 at least. Come on, Paul Weller is a god!
