These aren't my favourite albums but the list could do with some livening up/fresh material, I'd recomment looking up:
Orchestra of Wolves - Gallows
The Sufferer & the Witness - Rise Against
Life Won't Wait - Rancid
The Bronx (3rd self-titled album, or any of them for that matter) - The Bronx
'As the Eternal Cowboy' and 'Searching for a former Clarity - Against Me!
The Shape of Punk to Come - Refused
The Meanest of Times - Dropkick Murphys
Black Tape - The Explosion

Nice list, I'll need to check out Amebix. I've seen their name thrown around for years, no idea why I haven't listened to them. Good choice of Black Flag album too! It has its critics but My War is probably my favourite of theirs.

you really should check out Amebix....they are just so much more than your typical crust or d-beat band.....great thundering music and great lyrics....seeing them on their reunion tour was a dream come true and a blast

i love all of black flags albums....i just kind of feel like My War was when Henry and Greg sat down and said "you do what you do and i'll do what i do" and it work perfectly

I feel Blink 182 should have a place in the top 10, one of my favorite bands in high school.

2.) The Clash, The Clash
3.) London Calling, The Clash
