This is a thread to share links to punk bands that you think your fellow posters should check out! Like punk music? Please post some! Curious about punk music? Feel free to check out some links and ask any questions you may have.

Try to remember to label any links that you post. Writing something about the bands/songs that you post is also encouraged but not mandatory.

Disagreeing with other posters is fine, but try not to make this thread in to a slapfight about what is or isn't punk music. If someone posts a band you don't like, please consider contributing something of your own so that there's some balance.

This is meant to be a casual thread for discovering new punk bands and revisiting old favourites.

Here are some random picks to get things rolling:

Savageheads - Demo 2013 - UK82-ish Boston punks, they're fast and it rips.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4JWDo5yft8

Discharge - Why - A band so intense and idiosyncratic they spawned an ever-expanding subgenre of clones. Classic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGq8a6burA4

Outcry - Demo 2016 - Female-fronted punk that recalls a mix of older anarcho-punk mixed with the newer school of bands like Dame.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXcnI0q0I9M

Negative Approach 7" - Brutal, hostile early 80's hardcore from Detroit. Essential.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weGJ1kfUkkA

Pollen - Demo - Pollen are fast as gently caress, brutal noisy punk/hc. Highly recommended.

It's a really good one!

Pox are a newer band, very catchy female-fronted punk from New York.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cetlxvfA-jE

The Damned - Damned Damned Damned is a loving excellent rock 'n' roll record.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuwEmmUQ_S4

Love them or hate them, Crass had a massive influence on punk music.
Crass - Punk Is Dead
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcIOTRDswF8

I think their best album was Penis Envy. This is the opening track:
Crass - Bata Motel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu7gVjArz4w

Concealed Blade are a hardcore band from Pittsburgh. Fast tempo, throaty vocals, it's good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uguvRn2vqWs

Gai - Japanese punk from the 80s

I was hoping you'd come back Gutter Phoenix! As always your taste is on point, there's not a dud in that list.

I definitely posted this in the previous thread, but it was one of my top demos from last year.

Dustbin - Garbage Noize lives up to its name. Raw, ultra-noisy, lo-fi loving puuuunk.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoujCJXAIqw

Another of my favourite releases from 2015:
Dame - Charm School - Midtempo punk that also kind of recalls Joy Division, particularly in that post-punky, "angular" riffing style. Female-fronted, with a synth, but it's punk and it owns.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y7m2vpDkH8

VOID were one of the greatest of the 80s American hardcore bands.

VOID - My Rules

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3P5ry17Oio

VOID - Condensed Flesh

Oh I just love counter-counter culture that reflects the views and morals of the establishment through appropriation of a revolutionary medium. Like some dirty rear end techno beat with lyrics like "do the dishes" "look both ways" "love your neighbors" "let your soup cool before eating it" mixed in on the beat. :allears:

nvj is touched by your generosity!
There was a great GBS thread many moons ago about people living in punk houses. I didn't even realize that those were a thing until that thread.

As for punk music, I like it and think that it is good, in its own bad way, but the punk ethos seems to make it inevitable that any discussion turns into an authenticity arms race.
