Best, I have no idea.... but here are some of my recent addictions.
The fun factor on this album is still so high for me. I re-listened to it at work, and then a few more times.... from start to finish, I love this album so much. Josh Freese and Warren Fitzgerald = a power team. 2 top tier contenders for my list of best in the game. Especially Josh Freese, who is one of my favorite drummers. I love this one with him... his running man thing is amazing to me. My first love was drums, but I never got a kit... so I always pay attention to them..: Another album, that like the last, is just a super fun listen. Something about it just gives me the warm fuzzies. Everyone should give this album a spin if they like their punk fun and bubbly. and of course, this... If it doesn't make ya smile, you suck! Also listened to: Screeching Weasel - Screeching Weasel (meh, it is no BoogadaBoogadaBoogada) NOFX - Self Entitled (I am still hooked on "72 Hookers") The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette (amazing album as well)

In retrospect, those artists are now protopunk though. They would have been considered punk, because of their political agendas, but because it's 2013, all the various genres that influenced the first real punk movement are too diverse to be lumped in with punk. Captain beefheart is arguably proto-punk, and shares little to nothing in common with a band like The Clash. Also, seeing as it's a coined term, it's not really fair to even use it as a genre tag outside of it's historical context.

And punk is nothing like grunge. There are so many punk sub-genres, and grunge was much more popular than punk, it broke into our pop radio formats and eventually just died. Punk is as alive as it ever was, and is pretty legit as a genre. |

Television are nothing more than an art rock band really.
If you're going to call them punk you may as well call Roxy Music & Bowie punk too. The fact is punk started with the Sex Pistols, you can argue influence, you can name 100 bands that sound 'punk rock like' that came before them. The fact is they were what kicked the scene off and made it known and if it hadn't been for them most of the stuff that came before wouldn't be half as important or known as it is now.

Thanks. Looks as though this is just going to be a party of 2. You and me.
