OK this might seem odd in this thread, but they are oft touted the Godfathers of Punk...and this is just fucking money:

YouTube - The Who - Young Man Blues

Fave band of all time right there...

Kudos to whoever put x-ray spex vid up!!! lisa logic (from x ray spex) started a band after them called "Essential Logic" if you haven't heard it i HIGHLY recommend it.

I can't believe that Ramones video is titled "Hey Ho, Lets Go". I mean, I know "blitzkrieg" is hard to spell, but look it up dammit.

YouTube - The Clash - Complete Control

Oh, and here's my contribution.

 

[augie]

you mean poly styrene?

nope. but that's fantastic too. Essential Logic is more in the vein of x-ray spex. i prefer it actually. Also, i made an error its Lora Logic not lisa logic.

allmusic ((( Essential Logic > Biography )))


if you want the album PM me and i'll send it your way.

i like this song

YouTube - H2O What Happened

 

[augie]

the irony in that video is overwhelming. . .

Not taking away from any of the bands posted (well except for the Sex Pistols), but I'd like to say that there is tons of great modern punk as well.
