3.X
4.fugazi
5.samhain

and please, nobody try and say the sex pistols or the ramones.

Dead Kennedys and Fugazi? Wha? And Samhain wasn't that good, they really don't deserve to be rated at all.

green day

^ Yeah, and Sandi Thom.

Gray Matter and Lion Of Judah

I liked Samhain alright. Better than Danzig. Certainly not overrated. Neither was X.

I DIDNT SAY BEST PUNK BANDS AND YOU KNOW THAT FUGAZI AND
THE DEAD KENNEDYS ARNT APPRECIATED AS MUCH AS THEY SHOULD BE, WHEN MOST PEOPLE THINK OF PUNK THEY THINK, RAMONES, SEX PISTOLS, GREENDAY, AND OTHER CRAP.
IM JUST SAYING THESE BANDS ARNT APRCIATED, YOU MAY KNOW THEM BUT MOST PEOPLE HAVE NEVER HEARD THEM.

Most people know Dead Kennedys, and recognition has nothing to do with being appreciated or being underrated.
And I highly suggest that freaking out at Crowquill, who is a mod, is probably a bad idea.

No need to shout! ^

Make your point without being rude...forum etiquette.

If you think the Dead Kennedys are an underrated punk band, I'm sorry, but you are an idiot.

I never said you said best, I was merely saying Fugazi and the Dead Kennedys aren't underrated, they're overrated and Samhain are fine with the rating they receive, though overhyped by Danzig fanboys they really aren't anything special. Most people have in fact of heard of DK, Samhain, and Fugazi, they sell DK patches in hot topic for fucks sake.

the gits, morning glory and the belltones

Beautiful list of music.

MDC for me.

just because the *******s at hot topic dont care how they make money, and just because they sell a dead kennedys patch dosnt mean the dead kennedys get the credit they deserve, they never get recognized publicly as an extremly important to the evolution of punk.

Ya dead Kangaroo's are awesome!

Thanks! I thought I'd be the only one here to know them! That's what I get for being an old coot...

In all honesty i don't see Dead Kennedys being recognised publicly a lot at all. Althought that might just be in england.

The DK's aren't as publicized as they used to be. They used to get a lot of press, even in the mainstream.

Penetration. (altogether now.......................who?)

What? Everytime I hear people discuss the history of punk DK always get mentioned.

They don't just sell a patch, they sell albums, shirts, stickers and patches and most stores sell to make money just so you know.

Its an american thing I think, they get alot of mention here not as much as the ramones but still alot especially in the southern california area. They're everywhere, along with Social Distortion.

lol what? Do you know anything about punk? lol they're one of the most talked about punk bands of ever.

Holiday In Cambodia is in regular rotation at the punk night at my students union.

If they sell the shirt, wallet, belt buckle, and back pack at Hot Topic, chances are the band is not underrated.

That's definite proof that they are overrated...

I think the Misfits air fresheners would've been more effective.

I mean, what are they going to smell like?

You were going somewhere until you mentioned Clit 45.

One of the greatest punk bands that mixed forms of metal with punk that eventually become Hardcore was G.B.H aka Charged G.B.H. BROKEN BONES were awesome too. The most overlooked of all though is the DEAD BOYS. Their album YOUNG, LOUD AND SNOTTY deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as RAMONES S/T, NMTB, DAMNED DAMNED DAMNED etc, and it came out in 77 too.

Fxck that; Clit 45 were incredibly amazing live, and they are all about keeping it real, their cds could have gone triple-platinum and it still wouldn't have made them overrated!

Agreed, and 59 Times the Pain
