Bad Religion, to an extent - there's so much of it that alot sounds the same - but get The Empire Strikes First album, if nothing else.

Poison the Well is probably more hardcore-punk than straight-up punk, but their stuff is pretty badass.

 

I'm more into post-punk/post-hardcore stuff. (Much as I loathe the post-genre tag)

Jawbox

These Arms are Snakes

stuff along those lines

 

Failing that:

 

The Germs

Buzzcocks

X

Head Wound City

The Stooges

New York Dolls.

dead kennedys: start with "plastic surgery disasters"

bad religion: anything from "suffer" up to "stranger than fiction"

good riddance: anything other than "for god and country"

nofx: "so long and thanks for all the shoes" or "the war on errorism" are my favs

propagandhi: "less talk, more rock" or "today's empires, tomorrow's ashes" are my favs. to very different sounds, but same messages.

ramones: "anthology"

misfits: "box set"

clash:"clash on broadway"

 

 

that'd be a decent starter collection.

Clash, Buzzcocks, Sex Pistols

 

Clash kicks a many of an ass.

 

Suprised no one has mentioned Simple Plan. They're obviously the peek of any punk scene. I mean, Simple Plan didnt get booed off the stage at Warped last year, they left because the audience wasn't punk enough for them.

I was under the impression that Simple Plan is not real punk. More lik that annoying emo stuff like Panic at the Disco and Fallout Boy.

 

Anyways, I'm not a punkster by any means, but you can't go wrong with the Clash or the Ramones, if the kids are calling them punk these days.
