Right, this thread is about picking the top 10 definitve punk tunes. That means don't just choose tunes you like personally but tunes that define punk. Songs that are recognisable. Tunes like Dead kenneddys- California uber alles or the Clash- London Calling. Don't include teen pop-punk bands, this is purely true punk or hardcore punk bands, you can include however pop-punk bands like the Ramones. Iggy and the Stooges also count, being teh godfathers of punk in general.

There ya go..Post!!
