I would have to go with Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the UK just because they had the balls to play it in front of the Queen

I voted Viva La Revolution by The Adicts. They're one of my favorite bands as well.

I'm goin' with either "The Decline" by NOFX

or "Pull My Strings" by The Dead Kennedys

And, I might throw in "Unity" by Operation Ivy

I would have to say 'Anarchy In The UK' by the Sex Pistols, now I dont really rate the Sex Pistols but when that was the song that immediately came to mind when I read the question, second i would say The Clash's 'White Riot'.
I aint really that big on punk although I do like The Clash and a lot of Joe Strummer's solo work (especially with The Mecaleros). I also like The Fall although I realise they are mostly regarded as a 'Post-Punk' band which most Punk pureists would hate. I suppose its the likes of the hardcore grunge fans who would hate bands like 'Creed' as they take a lot of their sound from Pearl Jam & Eddie Vedder. I dont mind Creed but can understand how people would hate them, also I personally hate the band 'Godsmack' as I think they are a total rip off of Alice In Chains.(including their name).

"White Riot" is a good tune. Was that on the list? I didn't check.
Yeah, Creed is basically a joke, and although I did like Godsmack when I was 13, I had to come to realize what a ****e band they are. I mean, they took the name of an AIC song for their band name and had a song called "Bad Religion". What the ****?
