Seedling (I'm Jill's smirking revenge)
K's Choice (Old woman)
Dum Dum Girls (Jail la la)

that's not punk to you? ah punk's dead anyway

 

my favorite male punk bands with their 3 best (punk)songs:

Queers - Janelle janelle, Overdue, Punk rock donfidential
Mr T Experience - I fell for you, Sackloth and ashes, I'd do anything for you
Green Day - Poprocks and coke, She, Longview
Undertones - Here comes the summer, Jimmy jimmy, Teenage kicks
The Jam - A bomb in wardour street, Down in the tube station at midnight, Going underground
Ramones - Judy is a punk, I don't wanna go down to the basement, Havana affair
Sex Pistols - Holidays in the sun, Anarchy in the UK, God save the queen

 

I could list so many but instead I'll just draw your attention to two that may have passed you by unless you were around at the time (UK)
First, the B-side of Eddie And The Hotrods second single, Horseplay, with Lew Lewis still in the band on harmonica. They weren't like by a lot of punks but they were more punk in attitude than The Clash whom I worshipped at the time but who turned out to just be Rockers.... The Pistols were the real deal, The Clash weren't... (dodges incoming...)
