The Dickies - Banana Splits

999 - Homicide

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMlpqOsc2BU

I heard Babylon's Burning by the Ruts recently - still sounded pretty good

I think Bodies by the Sex Pistols probably represents punk's zenith

OMG...tough call to name just one but this track edges out the likes of The Clash and The Pistols best tunes (for me).

Love In A Void - Siouxsie & The Banshees

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNw7u5J1oOI&feature=related

Are we allowed yanks + pre 77?

yes

MC5 - kick out the jams

no

anything by the Ruts

Some great tracks above inc
Holiday in Cambodia
Into the Valley
New Rose

add

White Punks on Dope
Down in the Sewer

In a Rut - The Ruts

Bodies is indeed the pistols finest moment.

Tough one. I'll go for Johnny Was - Stiff Little Fingers.
I still have a punk cd that I listen to in the car, mostly comprising of Sham 69, The Clash & The Buzz****. The early Buzz**** songs sung by Howard Devoto were superb. I also have a Crass CD in my car when I fancy listening to something really alternative.

Blimey - choosing just one is nigh on impossible !

A Message to Who - Conflict

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwcHUbAdI_Y

But honourable mentions to ...

SLF - Mr Fire Coal Man
Dead Kennedys - Holiday in Cambodia
Clash - Safe European Home
Ramones - Warthog

Memory Lane time here and some cracking suggestions.

Band - Probabaly Stiff Little Fingers who I saw about half-a-dozen times at Friars, Aylesbury, where they recorded their 'Hanx' live album. So many fantastic tracks, especially off their first album, 'Breakout' being my favourite.

Mentioned in despatches:

UK82 - Exploited
They Declare It - Discharge
Ghetto - The Wall
For My Country - UKDK
West One (Shine On Me) - The Ruts
Outside View - Eater
Holiday In Cambodia - Dead Kennedys
Six Pack - Blag Flag
If The Kids Are United - Sham 69
Smalltown England - New Model Army
Masquerade - The Skids

Previously mentioned
Pistols - Pretty Vacant and If The Kids Are United - Sham 69
for sure.
Also:
Penetration - Don't Dictate
Rezillos - I love My baby Cooz she does good sculptures.
UK Subs - Stranglehold
Clash - Tommy Gun

UK'82 (Exploited) still one of the best punk songs ever.

Is this a without Toyah Wilcox thread?

Mentallissimo

Yeah - Wattie Buchan is a complete t00l but that song has real menace to it. Was used very effectively in 'Made in England' starring Tim Roth

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZXyHD927Nw

Nobody's Hero - SLF
Calafornia Uber Alles - Dead Kennedys
Babylon's Burning - The Ruts
Promises - The Buzzc0cks
Blitzkreig Bop - The Ramones
King Rocker - Generation X (My ringtone!)
Pretty Vacant - The Sex Pistols

operation ivy - energy
nofx - ribbed (one latex condom)
lagwagon - lets talk about feelings

Here's one that might interest some of you ....

Jake Burns doing an acoustic version of Alternative Ulster

Already mentioned by someone, Into The Valley - The Skids.

The Clash - Complete Control. A very angry record indeed, and all the spirit of punk.

Jilted John

What about the Members?
Chelsea night club, yeah yeah yeah, go go go go
Let's all go to the Chelsea night club

George C Looney, aren't The Crass the angriest punk band?

Hyserically so

Saw them with Dirt and Rubella Ballet at the Northampton Roadmenders 'back in the day'

God what a miserable, shouty bunch.

pistols..something else

The song(s) with that mad woman in the Crass make me laugh

Harmony in My Head - Buzz****

Absolute classic.

change my opinion quite often so cant name a fav band tho at the time i liked the damned while my elder brother listened to the clash.
fav song also at the time was gary gilmore's eyes by the adverts

death and night and blood by stranglers another fav

Blank Generation-Richard Hell and the Voidoids

Blank Generation-Richard Hell and the Voidoids

The Subhumans have always been my favourite punk group. I couldn't name just one song as a favourite though.

A few of the mentioned bands are playing at Bath Racecourse this weekend - see below. It looks a good weekend but I can't go as I am taking the family up to London to watch the flotilla!!! Oh how times change

Heres a link if the above is a bit small to read:

The song(s) with that mad woman in the Crass make me laugh

Crass were a band to be avoided, they were dangerously uncool & earnest

Do you mean Poison Girls - Persons Unknown? It is different and very good ( I found out a few years ago when I actually listened to it without, as George Michael would say,  prejudice.

Boredom by the Buzzc0cks I think deserves a mention

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GXtkAJOZ1s&feature=related

Persons Unknown

No, I meant Crass. I'll have a listen to some of those listed, as I can't remember half of them.

Eve Libertine and Joy De Vivre

Band -  Wire

Track -  I'm Stranded/ The Saints

Just in case anybody saw my earlier post about the punk weekend at Bath Racecourse and thought they might go - its been cancelled!

It seems that Bath council thought a punk weekender on jubilee weekend wouldn't look good for them

just like old times then ie radio 1 not playing god save the queen when it was no. 1!

what im looking forward to most over the next few days is trying out my new sunglasses to allay the dazzling effects of price phil's medals.
