Also Lou Reed, David Bowie, and Mike Patton.

I have a few Swans albums, also what genre of music is most of this? Currently i'm craving some garage rock :hphones:

The Sonics
Radio Birdman

Already listen to those bands, I also love DMZ which was heavily influenced by the Sonics (imagine the sonics mixed with mid 70s british punk), also I like The Monks alot ( the german garage band not the english pop-punk band (they both have the same name ) ITS Black Monk TIME :). I also am into the three head coats and the scientists hmmm , now that I think about it i think I have had my fix of garage rock for a lil while ( although any suggestions would be appreciated ). Any idea's for bands similar to the stooges (other than MC5)?

I don't think I saw these on your list there, but here are a few garage/punk albums off the top of my head that may interest you;

The Celibate Rifles - Sideroxylon
The Saints - (I'm) Stranded
Alternative TV - The Image Has Cracked
Richard Hell & the Voidoids - Blank Generation
Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakes - LAMF
Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual (joke)
The Adverts - Cast Of Thousands

"Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual" i unno if my fragile mind can handle such aggressive music, I asked my priest and he disapproved so you can take your blasphemy some where else :P ( Btw thanks )

Similar to Stooges:
The Nervous Eaters (start with "Loretta", "Just Head", "Get Stuffed")
The Modern Lovers (start with "Roadrunner", "She Cracked", "I'm Straight")

Good Garage:
Lyres ("She Pays the Rent", "I Want to Help You Ann", "We Sell Soul")
The Dogmatics ("Thayer St.", "Sister Serena", "****housed")

Other bands you may be interested in; you seem to have the same tastes as I did around senior year:

X ("Adult Books", "We're Desperate", "The Once Over Twice")
Vivian Girls ("Never See Me Again", "No", "Lake House")
The Replacements ("I Will Dare", "Unsatisfied", "Left of the Dial")
Times New Viking ("Teenage Lust!", "RIP Allegory", "Call and Respond")
Richard Hell and the Voidoids ("The Kid With The Replaceable Head", "Love Comes In Spurts", "Time")
Television ("Entire 'Marquee Moon' album)

Theres some stuff I listened to when I was first really expanding my music tastes combined with some stuff I listen to now that I'm sure 17 year old me would appreciate.

Thank you very much for your input, I really enjoyed The Dogmatics albums (where the songs were off of) you recommended, I already listened to the Replacements and Television (sorry for the incomplete list) and I plan on looking up the other bands you mentioned.:beer:

The descendents <3 - William Elliot Whitmore - The distillers. Cant go wrong with those three. I would list a ton more, but im drunk and tired.

I like the descendants ( one of the few popish punk bands I actually like ) btw what kind of music where the other two you mentioned

The Distillers is an early 00' american street band. Lead singer is a chick named Brody Dalle, who's voice is fairly burly and rough. She co wrote most of the songs released on all three albums. They are not the most remeberable groups out there, but it's still worth a listen.
William Elliot Whitmore is classified more-so within the blues/folk/americana area's. He's not really classified as punk. He has some political views in a couple of his songs "Mutiny" "Old devils"....... I dont know why i listed him :bonkhead: Still worth a listen though.

Ill post a ****load of artist's tommorow, finals are bogging me down.

I agree that they're worth a listen. Sing Sing Death House and their self-titled album are fantastic. Coral Fang is kind of a lame album though.

how about...

Bardo Pond, The Beta Band, Broken Social Scene, Dinosaur Jr, The Flaming Lips, The Jam, Guided By Voices, Operation Ivy, Pavement, The Replacements, Stiff Little Fingers, Swervedriver, Television, Thurston Moore, XTC

McLusky, Fugazi, Fleet Foxes, Bone Gunn, The Cinematic Orchestra, Fantomas, Bonnie Prince Billy. All these might be up your ally. Mostly because I think the better portion of the bands you listed fall under the category that I like to call: "good." So here are some bands that I thought of while reading your list that I think also fall into that category. Hope you find something you like! Enjoy.

Just saw him open up for City and Colour, and WOW he is awesome, he has such energy.

rudimentary peni

the magits

Did I not mention them Static age and earth a.d are some of my favorite albums
