i have trouble comparing the clash and the ramones because they certainly set out to do different things. its like in the space race how america was obsessed with getting to the moon and the russians really didn't give two ****s. the clash really experimented with punk while the ramones stuck with and were happy with straight three to four power chord song structures (of course there are exceptions with both of these bands but in an overall sense)

and i would disagree that streetlight is just ska as well, but i don't see them as punk at all. their newest album isn't even ska (imo), its really more alt rock.
