Hi there,
 

The only I like out of the list you gave was green day. Not much of a fan with the other bands you listed. I think Strike Anywhere is a really good band.

Do any of you people know any strike anywhere bass tabs? because i'm having a hard time finding some, so if you could please send them to my email.
Thanks

Take Care,

I'm a little late on this topic but Rise Against is my favorite band of all time!

Good punk bands:Rise Against(sorta hardcore but who cares), Anti-Flag, Propaghandi, Against All Authority, Sick Of It All, Whatever It Takes, Intro5pect, Endless Struggle, The Clash, The Sex Pistols, The Casualties, Sub-Humans, ZSK, The Damned, Siouxi and the Banshees...the list goes on and on...

then only bands there that are punk is greenday and something corperate

is you want good punk get....

Anti-Flag
Sublime
Thrice
NOFX


... just to name a few

Everyone has their own opinion on what is and what is not punk. In my opinion Greenday and Something Corperate is not punk. Punk bands, in my opinion =) are bands like Anti-flag, GG Allin, The Sex Pistols, The Ramones, The Misfits, Social Distortion, etc...

"Anti-flag, GG Allin, The Sex Pistols, The Ramones, The Misfits, Social Distortion, etc..."

Truly a list of bands that "i want kids at school to think I'm a punk rock kid"....not denying the music, just sayin that is what kids think is "cool as punk" since bands like blink and others have been shot down. With the exception of Social distortion, i feel that way strongly.

I dont want kids at school to think im a punk rock kid or whatever, I just like those bands, and listen to them, so I listed them... I understand what your saying, but that is not the situation here =) I like other bands those just popped into my head...

O my fault, I didn't want you to take it like that. I'm just saying more and more "punk rock kids" are listening to those bands when there is more than just a "few" great punk bands out there. The best way to find good music is checking out the local scene (depending on where you live)

Is it a bad thing that more people listen to some of those bands?

i was simply refering to the bands that were named, they are the closest to punk that were there.

Bad thing that they are listening to them? Half the kids who say they "like" the ramones, misfits, sex pistols, or anti-flag couldn't name you 5 songs by each artist if they tried. punk is become more of a fashion than a type of music, that is why it's best to stick to local bands who are just there because they like playing the music.
