Are there any good modern punk rock bands?

Question

Can anyone think of any punk rock bands that have produced a decent album within the past few years? Most of the quality artists seem to have grown too old (like Sex Pistols) or have drastically changed their style (like Green Day). What bands are still making strong music in the genre?

Answer 2

The Marked Men, Cheeky, Witch Hunt, Adelitas, Resist, Surrender, Gruk, Hook & the Daggers, Czolgosz, the Soviettes, This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb, the Tim Version, Moral Crux, Rager, I Object, Dillinger 4, the Bananas, Vena Cava, Mika Miko, Harum Scarum, the Exploding Hearts (r.i.p.), the Cute Lepers, Gorilla Angreb, the Spits, Underground Railroad to Candyland, Death Crisis, Randy, Defiance Ohio, Toys That Kill, Prizzy Prizzy Please.... I know I'm forgetting some but there you go.



Almost all of these bands have released awesome underground punk rock records within the past 3-4 years. Some are a little bit older, but are still great bands that are ridiculously underrated.

Answer 3

Original punk died with the dead kennedys, the punk that is around today is a totally different kind of music... its still called punk but its nothing like what it used to be. punk has evolved.

anyway, the most recent punk bands i can think of is rancid and the distillers, but those bands are getting pretty old too.

Many bands have the clothing style to be punk, and heaps arent very far off the music style too. but they all lack personality - punk is about rebellion, anarchy, freedom. thats all gone now.

good luck with finding REAL punk...

Answer 4

WHy do people insist on calling fall out boy punk? Theyre about as rebellious and anti-establishment as a box of crackers.



Bad Religion (especially Suffer, Against the Grain and Generator)



Descendents (Milo Goes to College and Everything Sucks are great albums)



Epitaph and the vanity label under Tim Armstrong "Hellcat" have a wide variety of post-punk and new wave of punk bands.

Answer 5

Von Bondies

Paramore

The Ramones

The Beatles

Muse

Answer 6

None of the bands you have listed are punk or alternative (save The Sex Pistols, and they won't do at all).

Nonetheless, I've been digging these guys recently: http://www.myspace.com/crossstitchedeyes

They sort of have a Rudi Peni-esque sound, and are modern.

Answer 7

I can only think of Gallows. You could try Rancid, but they're a bit older these days. I love Rise Against, but I don't really know if you'll like them. Anti-flag's also pretty good and a new album just came out.

Answer 8

eco-friendly Day isn't cutting-edge punk. they are cutting-edge selection. attempt a band called the Bronx. they are genuine punk. additionally, why does it would be cutting-edge? look into Motorhead for some sick bass lines.

Answer 9

The offspring and old green day are the only punk rock i ever cared for

Answer 10

The Offspring



Bad Religion



blink-182



Rise Against



Sum 41



NOFX

Answer 11

All my favorite punk bands have been releasing crap as they age. However the latest Propagandhi album, Supporting Caste, is amazing.

Answer 12

Go and listen to The Bronx. They pretty much own the modern-day punk scene. Also check out Every Time I Die, This Is Hell and Cancer Bats....they're all doing really good things.

Answer 13

i like the old offspring,and bush.(band)

i still love green days music, and i dont think it changed very much.

Answer 14

No. Punk died in 1983 when Joe kicked Mick out of the Clash. Everything since has been a re-hash.

Answer 15

bouncing souls

the loved ones

lifetime

Nofx

Rise against

gallows

almost any band on Fat wreck chords or epitaph

Answer 16

Hmm... you could try Bad Religion, Anti-Flag, and Rise Against =)

Answer 17

Green Day is still Puck but it just is just less obvious in their music.
