Why is everyone dogging the sex pistols?? There are WAY worse punk bands out there...Maybe it's because everyone who considers themselves "punk" likes them? I guess if that's true I see your point, but they still have kick-ass music.

:ack: I'm sorry, maybe it's cuz I'm a little fuck'd up maybe. But is that against american punk bands? do you not know of any, or simply hold no acceptance with the scene that has happened over here? ( that would ofcourse emphasize the actual scene.)
Well i don't listen to any punk out of my country as i can't understand their message so well and punk with no meaning would be like listening to some random noise mostly ^^ I do love Estonian punk bands like JMKE, Vennaskond and Sõpruse Puiestee great bands if you get their message... My mom hates JMKE as they were just too trashed all the time but their lyrics are really great although any non Estonians wont understand a word...
why do people even open 3 yrs old threads, for god's sake? well it's nothing against americans, I just don't like "your" bands, why do you always take things so personally...
i like hardcore punk likeee bad brains, crass, adrenalin od, discharge, exploited... mainstream punk is not punk.
You guys who like the Stooges should check out the Nymphs. The Stooges were a huge influence on them and Iggy was on the song "Supersonic" from their first (and only) album. Bonus punk points because the lead singer chick pissed all over the desk of the record label douchebag who screwed them over. I don't think anyone really knows about them but in the late 80's they were apparently pretty big in LA. www.myspace.com/thenymphsrock
"I just don't like "your" bands, why do you always take things so personally..." Haha I'm sorry, that's such a stupid thing to say... Anyway, I'd say a few of my Punk faves are, Anti-Flag, the Unseen, the Exploited, the Transplants, and the Casualties. Yeah!
That's funny that people actually think green day is punk. They are the the opposite that punk stood for. Punk was a political movement, a way of life, not a fashion statement that you buy at hot topic...
